Re: [whatwg] Canvas roundedRect

Hi,

1)

http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qpainter.html#drawRoundedRect

and Skia:

 /** Add a closed round-rectangle contour to the path
        @param rect The bounds of a round-rectangle to add as a closed contour
        @param rx   The x-radius of the rounded corners on the round-rectangle
        @param ry   The y-radius of the rounded corners on the round-rectangle
        @param dir  The direction to wind the round-rectangle's contour
    */
    void    addRoundRect(const SkRect& rect, SkScalar rx, SkScalar ry,
                         Direction dir = kCW_Direction);

The x and y radius are specified once.

2) Interesting. I will take a look.
