Re: [OT] 3d flip effect?
Robert, you changed the curl to fast. On my MacBook Pro 2.33 that gives about 800 milliseconds. BUT: it is what transitions are for, I did not even test the timing for curl because the user sees a transition without much latency, that is more important than the time. I agree with you that waiting 1000 milliseconds for something to happen is very long. But that is the snapshot part. If you cut that down with caching in a custom property and you come down to 150 milliseconds or so I think that is ok. if you want to try it: watch out for linebreaks on mouseUp if (noCore()) then exit mouseUp lock screen go next card set the text of image "TargetImage" to the uImage of this card set the loc of image "TargetImage" to the loc of this card hide image "TargetImage" set the text of image "SourceImage" to the uImage of prev card set the loc of image "SourceImage" to the loc of this card show image "SourceImage" unlock screen show image "TargetImage" with visual effect "CIPageCurlTransition" very slow with angle -280 and backsideImage\ ID (the short ID of image "sourceImage") and extent (the rect of this card)\ and radius 120.00 and shadingImage ID (the short ID of image "shadingImage") lock screen put empty into image "targetImage" hide image "TargetImage" put empty into image "SourceImage" hide image "sourceImage" end mouseUp --- to create the custom properties with the snapshot of the cards: in the script of the stack: on MakeImages repeat with i = 1 to the number of cards export snapshot from card i to tTarget as png set the uImage of card i to tTarget end repeat end MakeImages - call MakeImages once from the message box and you have your card images in the custom properties. regards Bernd -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/OT-3d-flip-effect-tp2220725p2223712.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: [OT] 3d flip effect?
on my macBook.. oldy.. 1,83 core duo with lots of ram, it takes 2 seconds on the whole.

Re: [OT] 3d flip effect?
Robert, I did a quick test on a cached version. Caching does indeed speed things up considerably. On a MacBook Pro 2.33 GHz the uncached version took about 700 milliseconds to get the two snapshots of the cards (731 by 744 pixel), having cached the images in a custom property took about 100 milliseconds. 100 milliseconds is barely noticeable and might work. Although this would only work on static cards as you say and it bloats the stack. regards Bernd Robert Mann wrote: > > A cached version?? > > thanks for the info!

A cached version?? thanks for the info! Yeah I guess to optimize things on a stack one could "cache" the images of static cards. Thus running a script to that effect, and modifying the effect script to look for a cached version first hand, and only take a snapshot if none is found. I do not think that effects are a gone by things, quite the contrary.. all the sleek page transitions we see on iphone set the path, and it is an important aspect to the user experience.

Re: [OT] 3d flip effect?
Robert, it is not super fast, the snapshots are saved to a variable, no disk access. --- export snapshot from this card to tTarget as png set the text of image "TargetImage" to tTarget --- Part of it is that you take 2 snapshots, one from the present card and one of the card to go to. That takes time, plus a little time for the core image effects to kick in. Smaller objects are faster. regards Bernd Robert Mann wrote: > > Just for info..

Re: [OT] 3d flip effect?
I saw a stack recently in revOnline that shows a nice page effect example, I think it is built with core graphics. CHeck it out. VisualEffects transitions by Bernd Niggemann "some of the build in Quicktime and core image transitions of Rev for MacOs X Needs a graphic card > 64 Mb and System 10.4 and above. For the core image transitions (I like curl which is a turning of a page, looks a bit like peeling the card off) some horespower is needed. Actually this shows, how to "fake" a core image effect for a transition. The core image effects operate on images. I wanted to use it for the card to card transition. To the rescue comes Revs snapshot. On these snapshots of the cards work the core image effects when going from card to card. I made this just to see if it could be done and since it came up on the forum I just uploaded it here. Although I think the big times of transitions are gone" -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/OT-3d-flip-effect-tp2220725p2220947.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
