Demonstrates how to use adjustContour to select and modify three vertices in a circular contour. In OPENRNDR circles contain 4 cubic bézier segments connecting 4 vertices.

On every animation frame the circular contour is created and transformed using sines, cosines and the variable seconds for an animated effect.

source code

adjust/DemoAdjustContour02

Demonstrates how to use adjustContour to select and remove vertex 0 from a circular contour, then select and animate the position and scale the new vertex 0.

source code

adjust/DemoAdjustContour03

Demonstrates how to select and alter the edges of a rectangle.

The rectangle is a scaled-down version window bounds.

By default, the edges of a rectangular contour are linear, so the edge.toCubic() method is called to make it possible to bend them.

Then various edges are selected one by one and transformed over time using operations like scale, rotate, splitAt and moveBy.

source code

adjust/DemoAdjustContour04

Demonstrates an adjustContour animated effect where edge 0 of a contour is replaced by a point sampled on that edge. The specific edge point oscillates between 0.0 (at the start of the segment) and 1.0 (at the end) using a cosine and the seconds variable.

The base contour used for the effect alternates every second between a rectangular and a circular contour.

source code

adjust/DemoAdjustContour05

Demonstrates animated modifications to a circular contour using adjustContour.

The application creates a circular contour and dynamically alters its edges based on the current time in seconds. Each edge of the contour is selected and transformed through a series of operations:

The currently active edge (based on time modulo 4) is replaced with a point at 0.5.
All other edges are reshaped by reducing their length dynamically, with the reduction calculated using a cosine function involving the current time in seconds.

The resulting contour is then drawn with a red stroke color.

source code

adjust/DemoAdjustContour06

Demonstrates the use of adjustContour to create an animated effect where edges are split, vertices are selected, and transformations such as scaling are applied.

The program creates a circular contour which is modified on each animation frame.

Edges of the circular contour are split dynamically based on a time-based cosine function.
Newly created vertices are selected and scaled around the center of the contour using time-dependent transformations.

The selection of vertices happens automatically thanks to parameters.clearSelectedVertices and parameters.selectInsertedVertices

The modified animated contour is finally drawn.

source code

adjust/DemoAdjustContour07

Demonstrates how to create and manipulate a contour dynamically using the adjustContour function.

The program initializes a simple linear contour and applies transformations to it on each animation frame:

The only edge of the contour is split into many equal parts.
A value between 0 and 1 is calculated based on the cosine of the current time in seconds.
That value is used to calculate an anchor point and to select all vertices to its right
The selected vertices are rotated around an anchor, as if rolling a straight line into a spiral.

source code

adjust/DemoAdjustContour08

Demonstrates how to adjust and manipulate the vertices and edges of a contour.

This method shows two approaches for transforming contours:

Adjusting vertices directly by selecting specific vertices in a contour and modifying their control points.
Adjusting edges of a contour by transforming their control points.

For each approach, a red line is drawn representing the transformed contour.

source code

adjust/DemoAdjustContour09

Demonstrates how to manipulate a contour by adjusting and transforming its vertices and edges, and subsequently visualizing the result using different drawing styles.

The program creates a rectangular contour derived by shrinking the bounds of the drawing area. It then applies multiple transformations to selected vertices. These transformations include:

Averaging tangents for selected vertices
Scaling and rotating vertex positions based on the horizontal mouse position
Switching tangents for specific vertices

The resulting contour is drawn in black. Additionally:

Control line segments are visualized in red, connecting segment endpoints to control points.
Vertices are numbered and highlighted with black-filled circles.
Tunni lines, which represent optimized control line placements, are visualized in cyan.
Tunni points, marking the Tunni line's control, are emphasized with yellow-filled circles.

source code

adjust/DemoAdjustContourContinue01

Demonstrates how to adjust and animate contour segments and vertices.

The method initially creates a contour by offsetting the edges of the window's bounds. A process is defined to sequence through various transformations on the contour, such as selecting edges, selecting vertices, rotating points, or modifying segment attributes based on mathematical transformations.

The adjusted contour and its modified segments and vertices are iterated through a sequence and updated in real time. Rendering involves visualizing the contour, its control points, the Tunni lines, Tunni points, as well as the selected segments and points with distinct styles for better visualization.

The complex animation sequence is implemented using coroutines. Two loops in the code alternate between rotating vertices and adjusting Tunni lines while the extend function takes care of rendering the composition in its current state.

The core elements to study to in this demo are adjustContourSequence and launch.

of rectangles, which are generated and manipulated based on time and random parameters. The application follows these steps:

Initializes a random generator seeded with the elapsed seconds since the start of the program.
Creates a sequence of rectangles using the uniformSub function to generate random sub-rectangles within the bounding rectangle of the canvas.
Distributes the generated rectangles horizontally within the canvas using the distributeHorizontally method.
Aligns the rectangles vertically according to their position in relation to the bounding rectangle and a dynamic anchor point derived from the cosine of elapsed time.
Renders the rectangles on the canvas in the output window.

Demo for rendering a 10x10 grid of rectangles within the bounds of the canvas. Each rectangle's position is calculated relative to its anchors, filling the entire canvas with evenly placed items.

The rectangles are drawn using the default white color. The place function is applied to each rectangle to position them dynamically based on their relative anchor points within the bounding area.

This serves as a demonstration of positioning and rendering shapes in a structured grid layout.
