Drawing text on an image

Post by hotspur »

Hello,
I was playing with MSL a bit but I cannot force the <draw> element to actually draw something. This

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<msl>
  <image size="250x250">
     <read filename="xc:blue" />
     <draw x="50" y="50" pointsize="40" fill="black" text="Hullo"  />
     <display />
  </image>
</msl>
displays only blue square and nothing else. What I am doing wrong?
I tried to search the Internet but found nothing and from a glance (though a very quick) at the source, <draw> should draw at the current image so I can't see where the problem is. Thanks for any help.
