ok, didn't see that in the DOC till just now.....
anyway, maybe i should explain myself a little more. i'm working on a widget
that is a piano keyboard. on a note on event, i highlight the key in the widget
and on note off i unhighlight that key. but i'm confused as to what do to, use
eventDraw with a widget surface or just eventBlit. is one faster than the
other...i'm assuming the blit is. and why would you ever use the draw if you can
just use a blit? i understand that the draw is sort of saving to the widget
surface. correct? so am i right in saying that the draw is not called on a blit
unless specified and thus would result in faster blitting rather than redrawing
the entire surface again? phewf, hope i didn't get lost there.....i'm just
looking for the best way to get this keyboard showing a keypress as fast as
possible. right now i'm only using the eventDraw for everything, but i think i'd
be better to use a combination of both correct? draw the main keyboard and blit
the highlights? anyway, this was a widget i made a while ago and now am
finally using .
