</div>it could, but the current implementation of adding_up is difficult to<br>
work w/ because it uses 1 big canvas. I was hoping to spend the rest of<br>
today and all of tomorrow to see if i can refactor adding_up to use<br>
multiple canvases. That may be a better use of programming time, maybe<br>
not.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>Please make sure to document your steps there as I have a feeling this is an issue a lot of people will initially run into when trying to build a lesson.
