The script will generate height maps (I think that's what they're called) for your selection. example 1. make a selection like below script renders example 2. make a selection like below script renders Script will be available under Python-Fu/Round Raster 2 Experiment... Attachment:

Some people call them height map some depth map some alphas. It all depends on who your talking to. Is the glass half empty is the glass half full. It's all the same thing. This looks like the round raster script you made except it starts with a selection. And it's a python script. It works great. It seems to be effective only with symmetrical and horizontal shapes. I like it. |

This gets me to thinking well how about not just round but maybe from black left to whit right. Or even instead of round white to black to white, kind of pointed. This script is unique because you don't seem to need to be perfectly symmetrical from side to side, so it could give some pretty good blend effects other than round. |

If ya got any other crazy ideas and that you can give me formulas to calculating the height, let me know btw what is the program that you used in your video to show the 3D view when you rotate it around to look like wood looking texture...is it easy to use and is it free? I thought maybe if it's free i'll use it to play around with these black and white experiements of mine. If it's not free then it's okay no worries. |

The pointed and slope look good. I'll try them out a little later. I've got some work that I need to do. The program I use to easily paste in and view the height maps is a software that goes with my Carvewright CNC machine. I know you can try out the software for 30 days but that's no good. You can save as an image and set it up on a mesh as a displacement map in blender but it's a little work setting it up and saving and all. I use my zbrush to easily bring it into the mesh via zaplink external editor. I have my zaplink set up for gimp. Which means I have to edit in gimp and save as a photoshop psd to re enter zbrush. There's also a free to try program called bmp2cnc which is the software that I use to set up my g-code for my CNC. But it's not truly a 3D preview with shadows. It's just a 3D height by color. |

Any other manipulations can be added after the script using the Curves dialog or [Colors] [Map] [Gradient Map] |

I call this one Round Border Raster Experiment. Warning this script takes a really long time to render on larger selected areas, like enough time to go have a coffee and come back to. sample selection 1 script renders this sample selection 2 script renders this selected shape blurred and bump mapped it'll be availabe under Python-Fu/Round Border Raster Experiment...

Post subject: | Re: Round Raster 2 experimental (python script) |
This one is even slower and even more experimental. selection what script renders blurred and bump mapped. I particularly like the result of the lop-sided donut shape. This is a different version of the script in the above post. Attachment:

Post subject: | Re: Round Raster 2 experimental (python script) |
You can get those same kind of results just simply using a round gradient with the blend tool set to [shaped (angular)] and it doesn't take a whole lot of time. If you could get something where the fill is lets say black on the outside and white on the inside, then that would be something new. The Path blend script is the only way I've seen that something like that can be done. |

I mean anything with a hole in it. If you could do your slope type of thing, only from the inside to the outside of a donut. It is possible... anything is possible... It's not possible though unless it's done manually. |

Post subject: | Re: Round Raster 2 experimental (python script) |
i think that's probably easier manually. I could probably do one shape with a hole in it but not a shape with 2 or more holes or many shapes with multiple holes. It's probably easier right now to use lighten only and cut out the holes manually. |

Just for a laugh, I tried using your height/depth map as a height_field image in POVRay (after inverting, POVRay treats white as the highest point) Attachment: height_field2.png [ 316.44 KiB | Viewed 1723 times ] Attachment: height_field4.png [ 333.04 KiB | Viewed 1723 times ] Kevin |

Hi There, I was just trying the script on a square and got the look of ceramic tiles. Such tiles have been used on the walls of our house. I had no plan to design them in gimp with this script.
