[RESOLVED] Cairo Pattern Meshes, are they what I think they are? [L-Plate Learner Edition]

[-Corso->]

Hi All,

Another beginner question for the Cairo Squad.
I'm attempting to learn how to build a non-uniform, image stretching-tool with VB sliders as the warp inducer.
With the hopes that I could achieve something like this Photoshoped warp, but programmatically.



Is such a thing achievable in Cairo?

I tried searching through the lists of properties of Cairo 'things' in VB, RC6, patterns, surfaces etc, but I couldn't find anything to compare with the documentation above.

Does that mean we can't do this via Cairo-VB6, or am I barking up the wrong tree altogether?
