changes in latest Athens configuration

Sorry, I don't get what you mean with this: "Why do we merge compositing modes with "paint options"?"

I just renamed paintMode -> paintOptions and moved setAA: (paint antialias) from canvas to paintOptions.

Changing antialias mode of drawing operation is as common as changing composition operator.

Because there are two different antialiases (paint and font) it makes sense to have a concrete distinction between them, therefore moved paint antialias from canvas to paintOptions.

Does it now make sense for you?
If not, it can be reverted, anyway I don't need it  anymore.

Cheers

Why do we merge compositing modes with "paint options"?

I would consider a compositing mode as a "mode" for current drawing operations and

the antialiasing setting is only a "hint" for the backend, it may be completly ignored.

Or am I confused with the font rendering antialiasing hint?

Can we paint by

set compositing mode

do paint

set different compositing

set antialiasing mode

do paint

set different antialiasing mode

do paint

does it work that way (and would it make sense)?

Ok, I wasn't sure if the aa-option is just an option for the whole rending and composition mode only for the current drawing operation.

? If you don't need it anymore, why is it now in the new ConfigurationOfAthens for pharo 6.0

Because these “external packages without maintainers” do not work.

(the commit was in the repo and was taken into account for the new config).

We should revert the change. can you add an issue?
