Clipping is now added in the SVN, but I still don't know what you want to say with "different surface blitting/drawing". --[[User:Minishlink|Minishlink]] 14:05, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Well right now I can draw images, objects, etc to one surface - the only visible surface. What I would like is the abilitu to create more drawable surfaces of any size and draw objects to those. Those surfaces are not on screen until I draw that entire surface (or parts of it using clipping) to the main drawing surface.

For example, I'd like object Foo to have its own surface for it to draw too that won't be visible on the main screen. I could draw and draw pretending its surface is its own and use absolute positioning on its own surface. Then when I want the contents of Foo on screen I just blit the entire Foo surface to the main drawing surface.

I could always write this myself now that you've included clipping, however it would be a layer manager on top of your library which is not as elegant.
