VisualID: generating icons using any arbitrary object

Hi!

Matias has worked on implementing VisualID (http://scribblethink.org/Work/VisualIDs/visualids.html) in Roassal.

This is an idea Doru and I have had for a long time.

Where to find it:

MCHttpRepository

location: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/mnip91/Roassal-VisualID/main'

user: ''

password: ''

Example:

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

| view rawView elements |
rawView := ROView new.
view := ROMondrianViewBuilder view: rawView.
elements := ROElement spritesOn: (1 to: 11).
elements do: [:elem|
elem addShape: (ROVisualID new). ].
rawView addAll: elements.
rawView addAll: (ROEdge linesFor: (Array with: elements first ->
elements second with: elements second -> elements fifth with: elements second ->
elements third )).
ROTreeLayout on: elements.
view noLayout.
view open

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Cheers,

Alexandre

Re: VisualID: generating icons using any arbitrary object

this is fun.

I always wanted that.

Now what is a sprite in roassal and you do not reproduce something stable at each iteration

In reply to this post by abergel

Great.

I took a brief look. In the original paper the idea was that entities that would share a certain amount of traits would look the same. The examples in the paper use file names and file extensions to generate icons for files.

In our case, we could have all sorts of strategies for identifying families of entities, and then to associate these families of entities with root shapes.

I would say that to make it useful, we would need to add the ability to choose the root shape based on a characteristic.

Cheers,
Doru

Yes, tomorrow I will see Matias. We will define a road map...
