Live Drawing Patch
-
We had some friends with kids over. I was just fooling with the patch and constructed a quick fun game for them. Left mouse click enable drawing on the stage; right click grab a new frame.
BTW does anybody know if Wacom tablet could be used independent of the mouse so the Stage Mouse Watcher could see only that? -
When I did my drawing patch, I also notice putting the framerate to 75 frames gave me much better results with less gaps as with 25.

Dear Michel,
Yes... I think it would be a similar problem with my original version. However, there should be no gaps in the updated version (as long as you install the revised plugins) regardless of frame rate.Best Wishes,Mark -
Yes your version2 solves this.

Mark seems to have fixed this. I have made a few drawing system myself, depending on what kind of GL mode I am using to draw I can get no gaps easily and have varying responses to movement if it is really too fast. I have generally taken the approach of using the mouse input as an interrupt and adding all the points to an array of GL objects to draw. Whether these are drawn every frame or not is not important, I draw an updated version of the array every frame. Unfortunately there is not so much information on how precisely Isadora executes the actors.Within Openframeworks there are 2 loops, 1 for updating and one for drawing. The draw runs at the frame rate you set and update runs as fast as it possibly can unless you slow it down. I still like to sketch a bit with Izzy and I think that having this structure would be beneficial. Some events that are not related to drawing anything to the screen could be run faster than the draw loop. If the draw loop is too much for your system to do the underlying interaction would still be fast and responsive. I think that as Izzy functions now it just does everything one thing at a time after each other. If this is the case altering the underlying behaviour would be way too much work to do in any hurry. -
Thanks, Mark. Much appreciated.

Thanks, Mark! This is a really interesting actor. I am going to wire it up to my kinect and see what i can get going on.

Hi everyone,
I find out this post and want to thank Michel and Mark for their contribution.Just a question, is it normal that my fans turn very fast and my GPU rises to 75 degree ?I tried to uncheck the Graphics automatic permutation in the System Preferences without success...All the best.Clement -
Love it..! Thanks Mark... A question for everybody:
In "live draw as mask" scene are there any good suggestions how to replace black background of the "lines" actor with another image or movie? Thanks..! -
I think this idea will work... I have to make it look better though... :)

Hello All,
I realize that this thread is over a year and a half old, but the patch doesn't appear to be attached anymore. Can someone repost it? Or tell me where to find it?Thanks,El -
what patch you are referring to? the ones here are downloadable fine.
-
The one Mark mentions in the original post. I see the links to Pete's plugins, and I see your later patch, but I don't see Mark's original. Am I just missing it?
-
This is a screeshot of Marks post.
-
That's really strange. I don't see the 3 patches at all, on either Firefox or Safari on either of my machines. I'll try again later from a different location.

[EDIT]
I found those files!
Well, when you read the post from a search result, files in the original post don't appear.
If you go through the original post link:
http://troikatronix.com/community/#/discussion/990/live-drawing-patch
Files are there.
Thanks @mark for your works!
[ORIGINAL]
Yes, @newsound is right. Those three files are nowhere to be found on this page.Is the updated Lines plugin still relevant since Isadora 2. If not, a simple screenshoot will be enough.
But thanks. I'm sure it was a nice solution. I'll try to find the solution myself and post it back when done. :D

Thanks @lapinchatware! I have the files now as well!
