Suggestions/Improvements for Adaptive Circular Scribbles

[SterkArtLine]

You're amazing Ollie, I'm so glad to see this message. It was exactly the algorithm and drawing style I needed to “create gradations without multiple pencils”. I'm counting on you good luck :)

This looks fabulous. Itching to give it a 'whirl'.

I'm working on it ;)

Here is an example of a picture I drew with the ChiuEtAl algorithm earlier. There are no lines in the white areas. It's the same thing we're talking about. I eagerly await the results. I hope it ends soon, Ollie. I wish you ease.

Thank you very much, I solved it..

It would be great if thescribbler could output a path in .svg so that it could be used in a drawing machine.
If anyone could help, I would be grateful forever.

@papiend Yes, we are in the same situation. I've searched too, but someone with good coding knowledge needs help. I hope a solution is found.

Maybe this is where you can get an idea ...

[SterkArtLine]

The option to have lines only in the portrait, without the lines in the background like other filters in DrawingBot software, would be great.

@SterkArtLine This isn't the final version of the Path Finding Module, I'm trying to get it as close to the paper Tone- and Feature-Aware Circular Scribble Art as possible. In their implementation they don't limit the curve areas in white areas of the image as this can lead to artifacts. I do think it will be possible though in a appealing way, but it may be that it only works really well on images like the one above, where there is a clear subject.

[SonarSonic]

I'll reopen this issue actually as an for enhancements to the Algorithm

Improvements Checklist

• Option to prevent the curves from drawing over white areas of the image.

[SonarSonic]

Yeah that's style is the aim. Where can I find this implementation of the Algorithm to compare results?

[SonarSonic]

Ahh I found it. I've been coding mine from scratch, I shall make some comparisons.

[SterkArtLine]

Well, I can send the file if you need it.

[SonarSonic]

Just an update to say this algorithm was added in the latest version, you should use images with a high resolution and very high contrast for the best results and if you wish to achieve results similar to Chiu Et Al’s implementation use a size of paper, pen width which gives you a plotting size of 4000px on the largest edge then use the “Chiu Et Al – 4000px” preset.

[papiend]

I am very satisfied with their program. I use it a lot. There is a ke
my question: in the "Adaptive Circular Scribbles" section, would it be possible to connect the edge lines so that it does not lift the pencil?
Thanks!

To fix the pen lift issue, set your clipping mode to 'Page' (you'll find it in the 'Drawing Area' panel). You might need to make sure you've got a slight margin around your image too.

Closing as Adaptive Circular Scribbles is out of Beta as of v1.5.2 and producing really lovely results!
