Re: Resuscitation of Scott Raney Paint Tools

2019-06-26 Thread Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami via use-livecode
You are right... the art work repository will be all "vectorized" for that 
reason, " different screen sizes and resolutions". 

 Further discussion here: It will be seen whether we can do with LiveCode to do 
coloring of SVG. Currently not an option/not doable. Would require a widget. 

Also, whether we allow a brush or "spray can"  to apply "pixels" to a layer is 
an open question. We have to examine the use cases. 

What would a child do with her colored artwork once it is finished? Share it, 
post to Facebook, Instagram, email it so a friend... The use case where a 
children in interested in actually printing a copy where we see major 
problem with a different resolution, seems very small...

 Most screenshot programs turn the "object" into a JPG or PNG. As do phones' 
screenshot's. So, there is a case to a made for allowing pixels. Because once 
is JPG'd, it is pretty portable, even at smaller resolutions.

This is only a demo if your "coloring book" uses simple pixel paint.

HTML5 also includes SVG/Canvas which makes it easy to use the same objects
for different screen sizes and resolutions (it would be a nightmare with 
paint).

HH and Bernd

I did the cmd-F on the whole Paint stack, as Hermann originally suggestioned

Bernd:

set the selectedColor2 of me to the mouseColor --<--- add this

This was needed to actually get a color! 

I guess previously Scott had access to  the "selectedColor" somehow in Metacard

Thanks to you both.

The UI is a bit messy, but I want to give a demo of what is possible for a 
coloring book with  LC versus scripting this whole thing in HTML5 with 
JS/CSS/HTML. (it would be a nightmare)

Cheers from Kauai

It works here in 9.5.0/9.0.5/9.0.2/8.1.10.

But if you won't use the simple find dialogue I described then
you could directly write (change the two instances of "selectedColor"):

1. script of colorPalette of grp "palette" of cd id 1002 of stack 
"HAColorChooser":

on mouseUp
  setcolor the selectedColor2 of me
end mouseUp

2. script of grp "Palette" of cd id 1001 of stack "HAColorChooser":

on resetControls
  set the selectedColor2 of colorPalette 1 to getcolor(false)
end resetControls

Of course you have first to toplevel stack "HAColorChooser"
(if it's open as palette).

I tried that originally. Does not work.

on mouseUp
  setcolor the selectedColor2 of me
end mouseUp

# calls

setColor which

"which" is empty

"of me" 

# calls

colorPalette "Color Map"

It would seem you need to change the selectedColor to selectedColor2 in the 
control "Color Map" but

"colorPalette"  which also is  only for internal use.

I can see it "Color Map" on screen, select it. But you can't get the inspector 
on it, opens up "No Object Selected" or set a custom property on it 

He is exposing "deep engine" code and objects we can’t easily leverage in 
today's IDE

Possibly, to really get at the 'problem' if, indeed, problem there be, 
would be to
go back to MetaCard and export the Paint Tools as a single stack, rather 
than a substack

of a one-button mainstack?

Tomorrow I'll fire up my G5 iMac and export that stack . . .
