Subject: FxRuby: understanding synthetic events

Hello,

I am new with Ruby and at present try me into simple 2D-graphic.

I have got stuck at the example image.rb [1] of FXRuby now.
There I have an understanding problem:
At the method onCanvasRepaint would be query whether the arriving event 
synthetic is. What does this indicate exactly? When is an event synthetic 
and when not?

I also would like to ask in the place whether FXRuby and the kind of 
operation of the example is well suitable for 2D animations or which 
extensions or methods are suitable better.

Thank you in advance.

Ciao
Andr�
