Hi All! Not sure about subject of the thread. I recently posted to my diary and #osm-ru about my refactoring of PicLayer plugin, and now posting here to get any opinions/suggestions/comments.
At least everyone who tried to use PicLayer hated scale, move, rotate actions that should allow any affine transformation of the picture, but take a lot of time to place it correctly. As affine transformations are natively supported by Java2D, there is a way to place picture on the map with referencing 3 points at the picture and at the map. My PicLayer modification allows it. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11265861/piclayer.7z - here is archive with source code and compiled plugin. Short how-to: 1. Install plugin (you should install piclayer from josm plugins preferences, then replace jar file with from archive one) 2. Download some map area. 3. PicLayer menu->New Picture Layer from... 4. Picture is shown with red dot at the center. (That point may be removed in any time, was put only as an example) 5. Add new red dots at the key points. 6. Select red points (green oval is drawn) and click on new place where this point should be on the map - piclayer will transform. 7. You can also move red points - click on new place with Ctrl pressed - no transformation will be applied. Not implemented: - Perspective transformations - they are not implemented at Java2D - loadWorldfile not works yet, but I can implement that if you have any examples of world files. So... The question is - is that worth to be put to SVN? Any comments are appreciated. --Larry0ua _______________________________________________ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
