== Summary ==
This feature allows plugins to asynchronously draw to surfaces. These surfaces may be located in video memory, and so this allows hardware accelerated plugin drawing.
== Team ==
Who's working on this?
* '''Lead Developer''': Bas Schouten
* '''Product Manager''': unknown
* '''QA''': George Carstoiu (irc: GeorgeCarstoiu)
* '''Security''': Curtis Koenig
The specification was designed by Bas Schouten and Josh Aas, with input from Robert O'Callahan. The Windows implementation is being done by Bas Schouten.
== Release Requirements ==
* Needs testing with a version of Flash that implements the specification.
* Needs a design and implementation security review.
== Next Steps ==
* Complete the implementation of the specification.
* Get a build of Flash that implements this specification.
* Get the specification ratified by the plugin-futures group.
== Related Bugs & Dependencies ==
* {{bug|651192}} Implement new AsyncDrawing model for plugins
== Designs ==
[[NPAPI:AsyncDrawing]]
== Goals/Use Cases ==
* Make it possible for plugins to draw, explicitly asynchronously, to a bitmap/software surface.
* Make it possible for plugins to draw, explicitly asynchronously, to a hardware accelerated surface - DXGI or DirectX 9Ex.
== Non-Goals ==
* Non-Windows implementations or specifications for accelerated drawing.
== Other Documentation ==
None listed.
==Security ==
