Ok.
The glx device is pretty advanced with the 2D stuff and I'm thinking
about the 3D stuff.
In a first time I would replace coordinates parameters with a list which
hold the coordinates.
To be less intrusive I'm going to clone old procedures in new one with
this coordinates list.
I'll keep you informed about this device,
Laurent
