On 5/18/13 5:04 AM, Colin Holgate wrote: While at the conference I found time to figure out a couple of things. I used arrays for the first time (in LiveCode that is), and I found hardware acceleration settings that worked well. The test I did was to have a scene doing parallax scrolling. The initial scene is made up of five slices, each 1024 wide, and significantly tall too. Those need to be on the card twice each, so that you can scroll the second copy into view as you move. That went well enough, so I added 101 LC logos to the scene, and it still moved well. This is pretty amazing. We took an extra week in Scotland after the conference, and very little internet access, so I just now had a chance to look at the stack. I'm really impressed. The only thing I'd add is a closestack handler that stops the pending messages when the stack is closed. I noticed the fans in my iMac went wild and LiveCode was using 100% of the CPU, which I tracked down to pending messages. I suppose that isn't an issue on mobile but on desktop things get quite lively. (For some reason it kicked Finder into 100% CPU too, so I had 2 processes going full speed for a while. I had to relaunch Finder to get it to stop.) Still, the effect was worth it. :) -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: scrolling stack I made
Hi Colin, Nice work! I added timing code to get the framerate. On my macbook pro when nothing is actually moving, it achieves about 40 fps. When the images are moving it drops to about 24 fps. I'd be curious how using the move command might compare. I don't think it would be faster since with each frame it's likely that all the commands would have to be canceled and re-issued to change the speed. I also simplified the movement routine to a single line to update the position of each object, which eliminated the need to store the position in the array. Feel free to use anything or nothing from this: global places,worldx,difx local frameratecounter,secondmarker on opencard resetobjects put 0 into difx if the environment is mobile then mobileEnableAccelerometer 100 moveworld end opencard on accelerationChanged pXAccel, pYAccel, pZAccel put min(100,max(-100,pYAccel*10)) into difx end accelerationChanged on moveworld if the environment is not mobile then put (512-the mouseh)/100 into difx end if movethings difx add 1 to frameratecounter if seconds() is not secondmarker then put frameratecounter put 0 into frameratecounter put seconds() into secondmarker end if if the optionkey is not down then send moveworld to me in 16 milliseconds end moveworld on resetobjects lock screen put 0 into oldvalue put 0 into worldx put into places split places by return addimage lc1,the left of img lc1,8 repeat with a = 1 to 100 put lc_a into imagename if there is not an image imagename then clone image lc1 set the name of image the number of images to imagename end if set the width of image imagename to min(256,1024/min(101-a,100)) set the height of image imagename to min(256,1024/min(101-a,100)) set the top of image imagename to random(500) set the left of image imagename to random(2048) addimage imagename,the left of image imagename,min(10+(101-a) / 3,100) end repeat addimage sky1,0,60 addimage sky2,1024,60 addimage hills1,0,40 addimage hills2,1024,40 addimage tracks1,0,20 addimage tracks2,1024,20 addimage farhedges1,0,10 addimage farhedges2,1024,10 addimage nearhedges1,0,5 addimage nearhedges2,1024,5 movethings worldx repeat with a = 1 to the number of images set the layerMode of img a to dynamic end repeat unlock screen end resetobjects on addimage imagename, imageplace, imagespeed put imagename into places[imagename][imagename] set the left of image imagename to imageplace put imagespeed into places[imagename][imagespeed] end addimage on movethings howmuch lock screen repeat for each element a in places set the left of image a[imagename] to trunc(3072 + the left of image a[imagename] + howmuch*100/a[imagespeed]) mod 2048 - 1024 end repeat unlock screen end movethings ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: scrolling stack I made
The use of an array value was intentional. Try your version and my version while moving very slowly, you'll see that lots of the images will stall in your one. That's because the value keeps rounding down to the nearest pixel. The array approach makes the location be floating point, and so over time the image will reach the next integer value.

On May 18, 2013, at 11:04 AM, Colin Holgate co...@verizon.net wrote: While at the conference I found time to figure out a couple of things. I used arrays for the first time (in LiveCode that is), and I found hardware acceleration settings that worked well. The test I did was to have a scene doing parallax scrolling. The initial scene is made up of five slices, each 1024 wide, and significantly tall too. Those need to be on the card twice each, so that you can scroll the second copy into view as you move. That went well enough, so I added 101 LC logos to the scene, and it still moved well. I made changes now so that you can try the effect on desktop, not just on mobile. If you do build this to mobile it uses the accelerometer, otherwise it uses the mouse position to control the scrolling speed. This truly an amazing demo of what can be done graphically with LC these days. It is incredibly smooth on my Mac Air. Thanks for sharing this. It is very fitting that I am testing it at this moment. The backdrop looks like the hills over here in Scotland. I am listening to the bag pipes as they are being played outside my hotel window while flying through the highlands in this demo. Very cool!

The landscape in the background is the Island of Sodor. I borrowed the layers from a menu I made for this app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/thomas-friends-lift-haul-collection/id641291615?mt=8 as you can see in the first screenshot. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

Hopefully some of you will try it on iOS and Android, it works well there too.

Hi Colin, Would you like to test if your code could be adapted to create this kind of infinite zoom effect in iOS or Android device? No iPad, iPhone or Android device in my developer desk... http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Second-test-for-Infinite-Zoom-td3642705.html Thanks in advance!

Re: scrolling stack I made
Hi Colin, I tried it in the iOS simulator where it opened but remained static. How do you initiate scrolling?

Re: scrolling stack I made
The iOS Simulator doesn't do accelerometer as far as I know. You could remove the if statement on the mouse handler, then you can click to make it scroll. I wouldn't bother though, the performance is nowhere near as good as on desktop or a real device.

Re: scrolling stack I made
wouhaou!! Impressed! ...add a vertical change of view direction and you'll have made that funky 3D desktop some of us must have fantasized about! Warm thank you : It's so interesting to see how things work behind the scene. And one can measure the live code path since the first scrollable groups a few years back, than the datagrid... -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/scrolling-stack-I-made-tp4665050p4665058.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
