Work for week 7/24 - 7/30

Cornrows Demo

Cornrows...

Fixed initial plate angle, changes in the properties panel are now immediately reflected on the screen.

Changed drawing order of plaits so that the initial plait is drawn first which may result in it's being covered by subsequently drawn objects, but intuitively still makes sense. When changes are made, for which the initial plait needs to be seen, the screen clears revealing it anyway.

Scrollbar now seems to consistently appear when the script grows longer than the panel.

Deployed changes to Cornrows.

Kente Cloth...

Implemented translateX and translateY, removed code left from Cornrows that doesn't apply.

Implemented automatically drawing the weave shapes.

KC is deployed (finally) here...

Kente Cloth

I have been working on converting Cornrows to Kente Cloth. The conversion is complete, the only thing remaining is to implement new Demo scripts. Once that is complete, I'll deploy it on the ccd server for people to try.

Some design considerations...

I like the 'Translate' by percentage codelets as opposed to 'Move by' an integer amount.

Weave is completely missing, and could be implemented instead by 'Translate' up/down left/right by 50 percent.
