alc_freeliner's Issues

Hidden crosshair + GUI when Spouted / Syphoned (make the GUI a layer)

The crosshair + GUI are hidden when Spouted / Syphoned into other programs like Resolume Arena 5.

Scaling geometry

Is it possible to introduce the ability to scale geometries in FreeLiner? I believe this feature would greatly enhance performance!

Center points of geometry + templates.xml not properly loading

When loading saved geometry + templates.xml with previously correct center points, the center points are no longer correct and have to be re-centred for every group. Which would be ok for like 6 groups, but when working with 30+ groups of geometry and freelining for multiple days straight using the same template... it becomes a bit tedious to have to recenter everything, everyday. Is there a workaround for this? Otherwise, is it an easy enough fix to maybe implement?

Merci!

"FreelinerSyphone(freeliner_sketch, int)" does not exist

Please see attached for a screenshot of the following error. In my version of FreeLiner - devel branch from July 29th w/ new layering system... Syphon appears to no longer be working? I have made sure to enable "int usePipeline = 1;" and uncommented / deleted necessary comments via SyphonFreeliner.pde!

Am I missing something? Thank you always for your continued support!

Create a basic tutorial (Improve documentation)

It took me a while to even figure out exactly how to install and load everything.

Now I've got freeliner up and running but due to all the keyboard shortcuts it's quite hard to figure out how to make any progress in making a visual.

It would greatly help to have either a written step by step guide or a screencast with someone instructing on how to make your first visuals. A Hello World for freeliner so to say.

I think it looks like an awesome piece of software and I would really like to try it out if I could only get over this first bump in the road

polylines vs. lines

Camera import error on Mac via capture layer

*Select All* Not Working

In my version of FreeLiner (Apr 11 master branch), the select all (ctrl-a) is not working.

java.lang.AssertionError

After loading a SVG file I Selected All (ctrl+a) and then added b3 render mode and a3+ (?) and the latest (updated 2 hours ago) devel branch of FreeLiner crashed w/ Tessellation Error: a coordinate is too large & java.lang.AssertionError.

Feature : invert the mirror display ?

When testing Freeliner, i don't use a projector.

So my screen is like a mirror, i can't read the texts messages. Is it possible to have an option to invert this ?

WebGui keyboard keys not working on OSX/WIN

To debug.

leverage color/strokeWeight interpolation with vertex() calls.

Make some sort of mode which uses this cause its cool.

Install on Windows 10 64

Hi,

I am trying to use freeliner for a project on sculptures.
I am on Windows 10 64.
I installed everything.
But i have the msg when i run freeliner :

No library found for http
Libraries must be installed in a folder named 'libraries' inside the sketchbook folder (see the Preferences window).
The package “http” does not exist. You might be missing a library.

I tried to copy the files from the zip https://diskordier.net/simpleHTTPServer/ in my libraries directory but it did not work.

Any idea ?

Segment sorting not working in segment mode 7

I deleted a line segment and spliced in a few more lines, and now stroke isn't being drawn on those segments.

Blue stroke color goes full white

With b 1 q 4 and k 0 it draws in full white instead of being completely transparent.

.svg shape loading auto centers

Is there an easy way to centre a .SVG file import via PD, no matter the resolution, to the centre of any given screen... automagically?

Webgui shader sliders affecting other layers

Would somehow creates copies of non shader layers...

Importing circles via SVG in PD

Is this et all possible?

implement frame capture layer

Will this feature be reintroduced sometime soon? It's a very fun and useful feature for making HD .gifs!

test-01.svg cant be loaded

So, I have a perfect .svg file that is all 1px straight black lines but it's not able to be loaded via PD into Freeliner. I did it the other day but with a less perfect .svg, but the new version I have is not loading. I can send you via email if it helps!

fixture layer violently crashes OSX

love freeliner. just wondering, do you have any advice on how to keep my laptop from crashing when i run freeliner? i'm working with a macbook air with 1.8 ghz and 8 gb of memory (so, nothing special, i know). it's been crashing after the first few clicks. anything i can modify to keep it running?

Esc btn + caps lock

For those of us who have keyboards without any indication as to when caps lock is enabled, it'd be quite useful to make the "esc" btn also release caps lock!

SVG files not always loading

As previously discussed;
Although I am making all SVG files in 1pt paths that are straight edged, not curved, without fills, and with correct grouping... I am having a hard time importing even the simplest of designs. It seems kind of random to me when the SVG importation will work or not. Is there an explanation or easy resolution for this? And for the time being, is it possible to add back the background.png feature that allows users to trace a background image within FreeLiner? However, please note, that when the background.png feature is enabled, it always seems to import the background image off centre...

Processing-Video not being recognized by freeliner sketch

Hey, I've been trying out some New VJ methods, and I'm trying to install and launch alc_freeliner. The other elements I've added to the processing libraries, and they run fine. When i run the sketch it's saying that the "library not found for processing.video" I've tried renaming the folder and such but nada. Can someone help me please. Thank You.

P.S. - Complete noob to processing, I know some coding though.

SimpleHttpServer Library not found

I'm having a problem with the SimpleHttpServer. I have put the library into the libraries director, but receive a "No library found for http" error

Fix issue with simpleHttp library and address

Hey,
as discussed when at Eclipse.
While the LEDs were plugged into Enttec Led Mapper (or ELM) and FreeLiner was spouted-in...
I'd receive this error notification. Only when I reset the computer and started FreeLiner first would it work.

Any ideas?

Centre Reset

When loading a template, some centre points of groups are not loading correctly.

Not obvious how to quit

Run from Processing 3 under Linux, it wasn't obvious how to exit fullscreen mode. I tried Esc, q, ctrl+q, ctrl+c, x, etc.

It wasn't hard to get running, but it might be good to put a note in the README for newbs like me that you need to download Processing3, install a certain library, etc.

segment sorting bug when opening .xml file

segments seem unsorted after loading a .xml file

SVG import / export

As previously discussed, the ability to import and export SVG files would greatly improve FreeLiner!

=D

bar graph mode

render mode for bar graphs

tp translate * [ALL] not working

As previously discussed, translation of templates work via PD when specified like so:
tp translate AB 50 100 0 $1

But translation does not occur when calling upon ALL templates w/ "*" in place of "AB" and/or "XYZ", etc. etc.

"FreeLiner" does not exist

Just downloaded the latest FreeLiner via Devel branch and when I attempted to start the sketch I received this msg...

option to delete all

Can all segments be deleted with a single command?

Full-screen on Display 1

window decoration enabled on mac / win

is it possible to disable this feature?

svgLayer

Is there an svgLayer option? Or can svg(s) only be imported via cmd: geom load filename.svg

running on raspi

it seems freeliner works out of the box as long as full kms is enabled. ref:
https://pi.processing.org/technical/#experimental-graphics

I will do more tests on framerate and stuff... my idea is to make a raspi-freeliner box image so you plug it into a beamer, mouse/keyboard and works when powered + use wifi hotspot to connect tablet etc for control

New Enabler mode idea

A strobing enabler mode effect would be really neat-o! Like q26's fx but with any/every colour not just white.

Whatya think?

white intro screen on OSX

Every time I open FreeLiner via Mac, a blinding white screen appears. Is this fixable?

CAPSLOCK + key$mash'n

Not working for Mac & Windows.

Layer saving issue with spout

Loading layers fails to spawn spout layer.

Questions regarding Shaders

1. Where is loadShader() called, what's the correct place to patch into
2. Where are the uniforms passed
3. Where is the vertex array (name?) created and passed in, the geometry
4. Where are the textures passed
   Generally, how/where can GLSL shader code be connected the Processing/Java code, and controlled through the UI

subtract action

Is there a way to subtract a template from a geometry;
i.e: I've added template "B" to "A" using the "add" action = ctrl-b. But now I want to subtract template "A" from "AB".

CMD fail : GEOM_01A.svg

The .SVG loader isn't working for me anymore... Not quite sure why not? This is the error I see via Processing: CMD fail : GEOM_01A.svg when I attempt to load an .SVG file via PD-extended.

Crashes when saved *sometimes*

via Windows & Mac on the latest "devel" branch.

NDI Support

Hi!
How feasible would it be to add support for NDI - https://www.newtek.com/ndi/ (?)
