Peachy this gradient code is top-notch Sir! cool

I am going to write some of these repetitive shapes into functions.. good suggestion. smile

mrpeachy · 2012-10-02 04:50:17

thanks falldown

good idea about the shapes
for the pentagon shape you would send the function x,y,color,alpha

main function()
--draw pentagon 1
pentagon(x,y,c,a)
--draw pentagon 2
pentagon(x,y,c,a)
end--main function

pentagon (px,py,pcolor,palpha)
subtab{
{d="start",x=px,y=py},
{other sub tab drawing stuff}
}
grec({sub=1,subtab=subtab,grad={{c=pcolor,a=palpha}},other grec settings})
end--pentagon function

Looking good there falldown. You two are going hell-bent for space here.

@ mrpeachy - did you drop your "borg" conky?

mrpeachy · 2012-10-02 18:06:51

@Sector11 - not drop exactly... i have been busy with other things so conky has had to take a bit of a back seat recently

Got you loud and clear - I'm in the same boat.

falldown · 2012-10-04 17:13:09

^^ and ^ Yes yes.. RL has taken the majority of my time as well.

Peachy I am thinking of incorporating xplanet into this theme.
I want to add it to the weather section.

I have yet to check how much resources it uses.

lionhead · 2012-10-05 09:41:35

i want to display an rss-feed. each entry should have an 'more'. you click on the word on the respective webpage opens then.

the webpage contains the 'headline' and the respective link:

        <tr>
            <td nowrap="nowrap">04.10.2012&nbsp;&nbsp;</td>
            <td><a href="/index.php?section=news&amp;cmd=details&amp;newsid=613" title="Curiosity bei der Düne namens Rocknest">Curiosity bei der Düne namens Rocknest</a></td>
        </tr>

or the rss-feed (xml-file):

<item>
<title>Curiosity bei der Düne namens Rocknest</title>
<link>
http://www.marspages.eu/index.php?section=news&cmd=details&newsid=613&teaserId=

do u have an idea how to realize this?

falldown · 2012-10-11 00:15:49

I have been so busy recently.. Haven't had the time to play. sad

I have added (or I have attempted to add) some depth to this..

Hope all is well with everyone smile

mrpeachy · 2012-10-11 00:37:38

very nice
ill have to ponder a while to see if i like it better than the flat shapes in your previous shot smile
how are you applying the gradient to the blue pentagon shape?

i'm well... just busy with other things. So i will join you with sad

^^ & ^

That makes three of us - seems to be going around, I'm in and out in spurts, being busy with other things as well. Just when I think 'I'm back' ... oops!

@ falldown - that's awesome! I definitely like it!

falldown · 2012-10-11 00:47:14

I'm doing it the hard way Peachy.. big_smile
I do a solid color shape
next I do a black layer set at g=1 with black gradient at {a=0.7,p=0}{a=0,p=0.5}{a=0.7,p=1}
and another layer set at g=2 with the same gradient as above.

falldown · 2012-10-11 00:55:47

Thanks guys!! smile

Just a lot of school activities going on with the young ones.

thats what i suspected... but not the hard way, seems entirely reasonable to me smile

falldown · 2012-10-11 23:06:48

Here is the cpu window..

Reworked the bargraphs a bit.

mrpeachy · 2012-10-12 01:06:02

im thinking the gradrec function needs a circular gradient option big_smile

Sector11 · 2012-10-12 01:16:03

Good to see two master at work again!

Lookin' good!

That might be the best thing that I have heard all week.. or maybe the best disguised criticism of the week!! lol

Or a touch of both with a bit of bat wings. smile

falldown · 2012-10-12 17:58:49

smile Peachy I wasn't being serious about the criticism joke above.

A circular grec would be awesome as well as a grec that could be used with text.. (like maybe a subtab=subtab) function. subtab=text or however it would look.

mrpeachy · 2012-10-12 18:42:00

^ i know, and there wasn't a hint of criticism in my statement smile
that is a good idea to combine text into the function
i have been working on a text function that does some things with gradients and text positioning
ill see if i can get the circular gradient implemented today

end--of function grec

a couple of new things first
g=6 sets the radial gradient
uses the same method of colors and points as the other gradient types
when g=6 x and y settings are now the middle of the gradient rather than the bottom left corner
set db=1 and you get a circle instead of a rectangle

when g=6 set r=radius of circle (w and h not used)
to adjust the gradient set
rgx= (radial gradient x)
rgy= (radial gradient y)
these setting move the center point of the gradient around within the circle
if rgx and rgy are not set, the gradient center point is at x,y

also there is another drawing option
d=aline
this allows you to specify a length and an angle and the script draws a line to that point

try this out and youll see how aline and g=6 work

subtab={
{d="start",x=200,y=200},
{d="aline",l=50,a=45},
{d="aline",l=50,a=135},
{d="aline",l=50,a=180+45},
{d="aline",l=50,a=270+45},
}
grec({g=6,r=40,x=235,y=200,rgx=235,rgy=220,w=50,h=-50,grad={{c=0xffff00,a=1,p=0},{c=0x0000ff,a=1,p=1}},lw=2,sub=1,db=1,subtab=subtab})

Very cool Peachy!!

This aline looks interesting.
Time to play!! smile

falldown · 2012-10-13 01:38:50

Much prettier Peachy..

The circular gradient works perfectly. big_smile

falldown · 2012-10-14 19:51:22

A slightly less is more direction..

cycle button opened first step..

mrpeachy · 2012-10-14 21:25:14

^i think you should have a separate bar for each output rathet than up and down on the same one
other than that its coming along nicely
how far have you gotten?
