  • Different cursor formats in IOFrameBufferShared

    - by Thomi
    Hi, I'm reading the moust cursor pixmap data from the StdFBShmem_t structure, as defined in the IOFrameBufferShared API. Everything works fine, 90% of the time. However, I have noticed that some applications on the mac set a cursor in a different format. According to the documentation for the data structures, the cursor pixmap format should always be in the same format as the frame buffer. My frame buffer is 32BPP. I expect the pixmap data to be in the format 0xAARRGGBB, which is it. However, in some cases, I'm reading data that looks like a mask. Specifically, the pixel will either be 0x00FFFFFF or `0x00000000. This looks to me to be a mask for separate pixel data stored somewhere else. As far as I can tell, the only application that uses this cursor pixel format is Qt Creator, but I need to work with all applications, so I'd like to sort this out. The code I'm using to read the cursor pixmap data is: NSAutoreleasePool *autoReleasePool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init]; NSPoint mouseLocation = [NSEvent mouseLocation]; NSArray *allScreens = [NSScreen screens]; NSEnumerator *screensEnum = [allScreens objectEnumerator]; NSScreen *screen; NSDictionary *screenDesc = nil; while ((screen = [screensEnum nextObject])) { NSRect screenFrame = [screen frame]; screenDesc = [screen deviceDescription]; if (NSMouseInRect(mouseLocation, screenFrame, NO)) break; } if (screen) { kern_return_t err; CGDirectDisplayID displayID = (CGDirectDisplayID) [[screenDesc objectForKey:@"NSScreenNumber"] pointerValue]; task_port_t taskPort = mach_task_self(); io_service_t displayServicePort = CGDisplayIOServicePort(displayID); io_connect_t displayConnection =0; err = IOFramebufferOpen(displayServicePort, taskPort, kIOFBSharedConnectType, &displayConnection); if (KERN_SUCCESS == err) { union { vm_address_t vm_ptr; StdFBShmem_t *fbshmem; } cursorInfo; vm_size_t size; err = IOConnectMapMemory(displayConnection, kIOFBCursorMemory, taskPort, &cursorInfo.vm_ptr, &size, kIOMapAnywhere | kIOMapDefaultCache | kIOMapReadOnly); if (KERN_SUCCESS == err) { // for some reason, cursor data is not always in the same format as the frame buffer. For this reason, we need // some way to detect which structure we should be reading. QByteArray pixData((const char*)cursorInfo.fbshmem->cursor.rgb24.image[currentFrame], m_mouseInfo.currentSize.width() * m_mouseInfo.currentSize.height() * 4); IOConnectUnmapMemory(displayConnection, kIOFBCursorMemory, taskPort, cursorInfo.vm_ptr); } // IOConnectMapMemory else qDebug() << "IOConnectMapMemory Failed:" << err; IOServiceClose(displayConnection); } // IOServiceOpen else qDebug() << "IOFramebufferOpen Failed:" << err; }// if screen [autoReleasePool release]; My question is: How can I detect if the cursor is a different format from the framebuffer? Where can I read the actual pixel data? the bm18Cursor structure contains a mask section, but it's not in the right place for me to be reading it using the code above. Cheers,

  • Is PyOpenGL a good place to start learning opengl programing?

    - by Isaiah
    I want to start learning OpenGL but I don't really want to have to learn another language to do it. I already am pretty proficient in python and enjoy the language. I just want to know how close it is to the regular api? Will I be able to pretty easily follow tutorials and books without too much trouble? I know C++ gives better performance, but for just learning can I go wrong with PyOpenGL? Thanks alot

  • Projective transformation

    - by mcwehner
    Given two image buffers (assume it's an array of ints of size width * height, with each element a color value), how can I map an area defined by a quadrilateral from one image buffer into the other (always square) image buffer? I'm led to understand this is called "projective transformation". I'm also looking for a general (not language- or library-specific) way of doing this, such that it could be reasonably applied in any language without relying on "magic function X that does all the work for me". An example: I've written a short program in Java using the Processing library (processing.org) that captures video from a camera. During an initial "calibrating" step, the captured video is output directly into a window. The user then clicks on four points to define an area of the video that will be transformed, then mapped into the square window during subsequent operation of the program. If the user were to click on the four points defining the corners of a door visible at an angle in the camera's output, then this transformation would cause the subsequent video to map the transformed image of the door to the entire area of the window, albeit somewhat distorted.

  • Image Transformation on iPhone, how to?

    - by Horace Ho
    Since I cannot pre-render all the images in PNGs and real-time image transformation functions are required, namely: skew perspective (like the transform action found in Photoshop) Which API (CoreAnimation? OpenGL ES?) should I look into? Even better, is there any sample code around? Thanks!

  • How does Content-Aware fill work?

    - by CiscoIPPhone
    The upcoming version of Photoshop a feature called Content-Aware fill. This feature will fill a selection of an image based on the surrounding image - to the point it can generate bushes and clouds while being seamless with the surrounding image. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NH0aEp1oDOI for a preview of the Photoshop feature I'm talking about. My question is: How does this feature work algorithmically?

  • How does a GUI Framework work?

    - by AlexW.H.B.
    I have been all over the web looking for an answer to this, and my question is this: How does a GUI framework work? for instance how does Qt work, is there any books or wibsites on the topic of writing a GUI framework from scratch? and also does the framework have to call methods from the operating systems GUI framework? -- Thank you to any one who takes the time to try to answer this question, and forgive me if i misspelled anything.

  • On OSX, how do I gradient fill a path stroke?

    - by Emiel
    Using the plethora of drawing functions in Cocoa or Quartz it's rather easy to draw paths, and fill them using a gradient. I can't seem to find an acceptable way however, to 'stroke'-draw a path with a line width of a few pixels and fill this stroke using a gradient. How is this done?

  • How do I visualize a complex graph in .Net?

    - by Ivan
    I need to visualize a graph (technically being a set of Entity Framework objects, but I can translate it to another representation if needed) of this kind. I don't know how to name it (by the way, if you know - I'll appreciate if you tell me). It would be ideal for graph elements to be clickable (so that when user clicks on a block, I can handle an event with the element id specified) but I can survive even without any interactivity. Are there any components available good for this task? If no, what should I look for to help me to develop an algorithm for drawing such a graph with visually-comfortable layout?

  • Convert text box text into Argb argument

    - by Jimmy
    I have been looking into coloring objects like ellipses with code such as SolidBrush trnsRedBrush = new SolidBrush(Color.FromArgb(0x78FF0000)); I'd like to play around further with this by entering FromArgb's argument into a textbox on a form, then using the textbox to set the Brush's color. How would I convert the textbox's text into an argument usable by FromArgb?

  • Generate 2D cross-section polygon from 3D mesh

    - by nornagon
    I'm writing a game which uses 3D models to draw a scene (top-down orthographic projection), but a 2D physics engine to calculate response to collisions, etc. I have a few 3D assets for which I'd like to be able to automatically generate a hitbox by 'slicing' the 3D mesh with the X-Y plane and creating a polygon from the resultant edges. Google is failing me on this one (and not much helpful material on SO either). Suggestions?

    - by VOX
    I'm developing a turn-by-turn navigation software for Windows Mobile using C# and .NET CF. I'm able to draw a 2D maps by drawing lines. My problem is I would like to get a 2.5D map like in the picture. I tried non-affine transformation on the 2D rendered image but it is too slow for the Windows Mobile device we are targeting. Could anyone give me a clue on my problem? example image

  • Spinning a 3D model in C#

    - by icemanind
    How do I take a 3D model that I created in 3D Studio Max and put it into my Winform C# program and make it spin? I'd prefer not to use DirectX if possible. I don't want anything complex. I simply want my model to rotate along the X axis. Thats it. Thanks

  • A dynamic array of a class, inside another separate class?

    - by pinnacler
    I'm working on a robot localization simulator and I created a class called "landmark". The end result is going to be a robot that is always centered and always faces the top of the screen. As it turns, the birds eye view map will rotate around the robot. To accomplish this, I'm assuming I can rotate one class and have all elements inside rotate as well. So, the landmark class has properties x,y, label, and radius. This is suppose to simulate a tree location in a forest. To test everything, I need "forest data," and I wrote a script to generate 100 trees in a 100m x 100m area. The script automatically generates values within an acceptable range for x,y, radius. The generated data is stored in an object called tempForest and is 100x3. Ideally, I want to create a class called "landmarks" (plural) that has 100 landmark instances inside. How would I instantiate 100 instances of landmark in one instance of landmarks using that randomly generated data? Ideally, I'd just type treeBeacons = landmarks(); and it would randomly populate 100 (user definable, set in config file) instances with x, y, radius data. I'm not sure how to deal with a dynamic array of class "Landmark", inside another single class "landmarks." Any ideas?

  • Triangular bounding volumes

    - by Cheery
    I've come up with an alternative for beziers that might be easier to ray-trace, perhaps even though a plain vertex shader. Though there's missing a piece. I need to find the parametric surface equation from the surface normals I have for edge vertices. I also have to know it's peak and valley so I can constraint the depth of my bounding triangle. Image explains the overall idea: I build a bounding-volume from a control triangle. Then apply a function to each parametric coordinate of the triangle (s+t+u=1 where s,t,u = 0) to get the height coordinate for that certain point. Simply put, it produces a procedurally generated height-map for the triangle's surface. I just need to find a function that generates the height-map so I can make it work.

  • Animate rotating SVG element on webpage

    - by Zarkonnen
    So I have an SVG file created in Inkscape embedded in a webpage, and I'd like it to rotate slowly. I've tried using Javascript and inserting animation commands directly into the SVG, but nothing works. I don't want to load in an entire JS library for this one task. This is what I have so far: <html> <body bgcolor="#333333"> <embed src="gear.svg" id="gear" width="1000" height="1000" style="position: absolute; top: -500px; left: -500px;" /> <script type="text/javascript"> var gear = document.getElementById("gear"); window.setInterval(function() { // Somehow animate the gear. }, 10); </script> </body> </html>

  • How do I draw an ellipse with arbitrary orientation pixel by pixel?

    - by amc
    Hi, I have to draw an ellipse of arbitrary size and orientation pixel by pixel. It seems pretty easy to draw an ellipse whose major and minor axes align with the x and y axes, but rotating the ellipse by an arbitrary angle seems trickier. Initially I though it might work to draw the unrotated ellipse and apply a rotation matrix to each point, but it seems as though that could cause errors do to rounding, and I need rather high precision. Is my suspicion about this method correct? How could I accomplish this task more precisely? I'm programming in C++ (although that shouldn't really matter since this is a more algorithm-oriented question).

  • WinForms / .Net interactive world map - how?

    - by FerretallicA
    In a CD collection program, I have each artist's country of origin stored in the main database and want to display a map of the world which: Colour-codes each country depending on the number of CDs by artists in that country Allows clicking on each country to filter a list of CDs to only ones by artists in that country This is a heavily simplified version of what I'm trying to do, but if I can at least get this far the rest should be easy enough to figure out. So far the closest thing I've found to what I'm trying to do is here: http://www.synergetechsolutions.com/blog/analytics-world-map-control Ideally I don't want to be embedding Flash in my program though, and the only other solutions I've found all involve SVG which I haven't managed to get working in practice outside of a web browser control (and I DEFINITELY don't want to be embedding a browser in the forms). Something in pure managed code and either GDI+ or WPF would be preferable. Are there any existing components that would get me started, or can anyone suggest how to approach it from scratch?
