I'm making an animation in which I need to keep track of explored/unexplored pixels on the screen.Initially the screen is black colored,then as the node(a circle) moves(over defined path) the explored pixels are set to white.For doing this task(color change) I'm using Canvas class of JavaFX as background and painting the path using an object of GraphicsContext class(see the createPathAnimation method),now I want to update the int 2D matrix as 0-unexplored,1-explored. How can I use the changed() function inside createPathAnimation to update my matrix as that function is updating the pixel color to white and I need to update the same set of explored pixels to 1 in my matrix? sample translation
I'm trying to use the inbuilt function because even if I know the initial and final pixel coordinates,its not easy to determine which all pixels will be set while the circle moves between them(for ex along one of the diagonals),since circle is a like a blob of tiny squares on a pixel level. My motive is to find the number of white colored pixels after a diagonal translation.
