Post subject: | My plan to deal with many bevel algorithms (put them all in one place) |
*This post started out as me complaining about a problem but now it turned into a theory for a new plugin to combine many simple graphs of exotic bevel text styles all in one place. Download beta code here download/file.php?id=68829 Once this is done it will be on Github. Every bevel seen in this thread posted by me will be part of one mega plugin Hello, I made this post to discuss a limitation of GEGL that I know how to solve but it would take a ton of tedious work and by using the same logic it would be possible to make all 59 plugins of mine into one mega plugin. Something I do NOT plan on doing. lol. GEGL plugins that are somewhat similar to one another may end up being separate filters instead of being combined into one larger plugin because of very different node connections that create the same effect with a different structure. Example (This graph is similar to plugin viewtopic.php?f=9&t=20579 , but it would still be very difficult to make this part of the Ringed Bevel Plugin. A separate plugin would be easy though Attachment: pasted_image274.png [ 594.19 KiB | Viewed 2430 times ] Attachment: pasted_image272.png [ 302.9 KiB | Viewed 2430 times ] Test (sharp ring) graph here. Code: Select all id=contain Requires dependencies. https://github.com/LinuxBeaver/GEGL-Eff ... sing-GEGL/ and https://github.com/LinuxBeaver/Gimp_Rin ... mp_Plugin/ To some things up. It is a lot of extra work to combine two plugins that may look similar but are under the hood different. |

Since you seem to be the GEGL master here why not combine them all into one toolbox/factory or whatever you would like to call it. We already have a couple of these things, (logo toolbox and frame factory) and maybe others - why not give us another? |

Thank you Sallyanne, but that is very difficult as I stated above. ---- I have an idea. Make one plugin that list presets of exotic bevels with limited editable properties. Here is a incomplete preview of my plan. Users will be able to select any "crazy" bevel effect from the list. Attachment: 2023-10-14_04-59.png [ 193.11 KiB | Viewed 2390 times ] |

I FOUND A SOLUTION I have a plan to group all exotic bevel plugins of mine in one plugin with very limited editable options, as seen in this video. If I choose to give each of them unique editable properties, it would be ENORMOUSLY DIFFICULT. The shortcut I did is good enough. Video of Exotic bevels here https://streamable.com/cxqg7m Image Screenshots Attachment: pasted_image279.png [ 337.92 KiB | Viewed 2379 times ] Attachment: 2023-10-14_11-55.png [ 104.44 KiB | Viewed 2379 times ] Attachment: bevel_legend.png [ 201.57 KiB | Viewed 2379 times ] So now all the crazy niche bevel deviations will have a home in this currently unreleased plugin called "Exotic Bevel Collection" but Bevel, Custom Bevel, Sharp Bevel, Glossy Balooon and Ring Bevel and everything else published will have independence. These exotic bevels will NOT disappoint. Expect to see many new bevel and bumps coming from me. |

The ringed sharp bevel graph I made is baked in the .c file, as a limited editable preset.

The reason I've been "spamming" the forum with post about bevels is because I am learning a ton of new things about bevels that I did not even know a few weeks ago. As a result many of my bevel plugins are updating and new bevel plugins and algorithms to be part of existing plugins are being made. Sorry for the inconvenience/convince because we have new GEGL based bevel plugins. This is exciting for me learning a bunch of new theories on bevel design. |

Have no worries, you are not "spamming", and even if we don't answer, we are reading your discoveries, new theories and new versions, it's always interesting |

ok, I am planning on putting 24 bevels/bumps with limited editability all in this one plugin. Once I hit 24 bevel graphs, I will upload it to Github. Also, I might change the name "exotic" to something else. Such as; Indie Bevel Showcase, Misc Bevel Showcase, as the name "exotic" is not proper.

Attachment: cake.png [ 916.18 KiB | Viewed 2248 times ] DOWNLOAD FOR WINDOW AND LINUX IN LINK Attachment: Every pic I post in this thread is included in this plugin. Including the extremely slow "cake text's" In a few hours or days this will be on Github. You can test the likely final release now by copying all 15 binaries provided in the download link. Overwrite all the ones you already have (even if you downloaded this plugins earlier beta a few days ago) So the cake text works.

Cake text is the slowest plugin I ever released.

This thread can retire because it started out as me posting about a problem and then turned into a solution that became a plugin here. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=20591 |
