Salut Jean-Marc,
glad you like it.
please tell me if you find an image where it does not work properly. I would be interested to see that.
Kind regards
Bernd

Nice work Bernd
I have no absolutely idea how I could use this, but irrespective of that, I appreciate it...

Hi Dave,
thank you.
Kind regards
Bernd
thank you.
actually I mostly liked the idea. It was kind of a challenge that came up on the use-list. A bit like playing chess. Or "how to almost go BANANAS implementing an algorithm..."I have no absolutely idea how I could use this
Kind regards
Bernd

Hi Bernd,
Excellent work!
Did you have code to select and trace each part of an image?
For example, trace this image:
http://www.clker.com/cliparts/c/a/6/c/1 ... svg.hi.png
(from this page: http://www.clker.com/clipart-13748.html)
Just one leaf is traced.
How could we trace all parts of this image?
Thanks in advance!
Al

Re: This might be useful for some (New AGAIN)
Ah I had almost forgotten about BANANAS, should have known they would return to strike again (lucky I didn't slip up on them). If this keeps up BANANAS will become the second most powerful word on this forum after CHEESEbn wrote: actually I mostly liked the idea. It was kind of a challenge that came up on the use-list.

Hi Dave,
Just don't change your tagline yet...
imagine replacing "coder" with the B-word...
That would certainly raise some eyebrows with the moderators.
Kind regards

Re: This might be useful for some (New AGAIN)
Richard,
A kind of Wayang with personage created by children to illustrate
some stories they write.
Bernd
I have done some tries with an image "fff" created with the LiveCode paint tools.
It works fine and will be very useful for our pratice which work with simple shapes.
http://www.alternatic.ch/jmb/devrev/Maax_walk.png
Resizing the graphic works well.
I suggest a Bernd's "smoothShape" script for the resizing
If Bernd didn't write this script before sunday we can use an "outer Glow" effect to get a kind of smoothed shape.
Kind regards

Re: This might be useful for some (New AGAIN)
Salut Jean-Marc
if I understand you correctly you want to smooth the graphic. That is very tricky to do. Now the graphic has every point of the contour of the image, that makes it jaggy.
Michael Kristensen has made a button "Reduce /2". That button reduces the number of points and thus smoothes the graphic somewhat. Could you experiment with that function and tell me if that is kind of what you want?
Aply the button multiple times until it gets too "smooth" and then hit the undo button.
Kind regards

Re: This might be useful for some (New AGAIN)
Hi Bernd,
Yes, I tried and the result is good with a three time "reduce /2", 190 points as you said.
That is very useful to store a lot of shape in a simple text file.
Anyway. The result is nice for our project.
I have done some experiment for animation based on a points list
Thanks again
Kind regards

Jim, if you're not familiar with Maria Boadman you may enjoy how she sometimes takes Wayang in more modern directions:

Re: This might be useful for some (New AGAIN)
Richard,
Thank for this link. I was in Bali for a wonderful trip on our double-bicycle (tandem) but I didn't know the work of Maria Boadman
I'm afraid that will be difficult to simulate the charm of the real fire light.

Hi there
This is a tool to make graphics for popUp palettes etc.
The advantage is ease of use and only a single graphic.
