"Wrong parameter type" using Map object (Solved)

[Pocholo]

Hi guys! I'm writing a plugin using Map object and is giving me this error. What i'm I missing?




I'm using the procedure code sample by Graechan here: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=10856 post #3

Code:

pdb.plug_in_map_object(img, pumLayer,
                                   1,    # Type of mapping (0=plane,1=sphere,2=box,3=cylinder)
                       0.5, 0.5, 2.0,    # viewpoint
                       0.5, 0.5, 0.0,    # object pos
                       1.0, 0.0, 0.0,    # first axis
                       0.0, 1.0, 0.0,    # 2nd axis
                      0.0, 0.0, 15.0,    # axis rotation
                                0,    # Type of lightsource (0=point,1=directional,2=none)
                     (255, 255, 255),    # Lightsource color (r,g,b)
                        0.5, 0.5, 2,    # light position
                     -1.0, -1.0, 1.0,    # light direction
            0.8, 0.5, 0.4, 0.0, 27.0,    # material (amb, diff, refl, spec, high)
                           TRUE,    # antialias
                           FALSE,    # tile
                           FALSE,    # new image
                           TRUE,    # transparency
                           1.00,    # Sphere/cylinder radius (only used when maptype=1 or 3)
                     0.5, 0.5, 0.5,    # box size
                           1.00,    # unused parameter Cylinder length
                             -1,    # Box front face (set these to -1 if not used)
                             -1,    # Box back face
                             -1,    # Box top face                           
                              -1,    # Box bottom face
                             -1,    # Box left face
                              -1,    # Box right face
                             -1,    # Cylinder top face (unused parameter)
                             -1)    # Cylinder bottom face (unused parameter)

Hi Pocholo.

Right now, the only plugin I can remember that works fine with plug_in_map_object is "Planet_wire_frame_model.py" by TinTran:
https://gimplearn.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=535

Code:

pdb.plug_in_map_object(image, drawable,1,0.5,0.5,2.0,0.5,0.5,0.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,0.0,-1.5,70,45,2,(255,255,255),1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0,0.3,1,0.5,0,27,True,False,False,True,0.25,0.25,0.25,0.25,1.00,None,None,None,None,None,None,None,None)

Thank you so much for your help, MararoQ. I will try that.

Pocholo Please post your pumpkin pattern or xcf file so I can run map object on it

Graechan, I got the Map object fixed and working with MareroQ sample from one of Tin Tran plugin "Planet_wire_frame_model.py".

The only difference a I see on the code is that some parameters were written in lowercase (True, False) and the last 8 parameters were written as None instead of -1.

Code:

pdb.plug_in_map_object(img, pumLayer,
                                       1,    # Type of mapping (0=plane,1=sphere,2=box,3=cylinder)
                           0.5, 0.5, 2.0,    # viewpoint
                           0.5, 0.5, 0.0,    # object pos
                           1.0, 0.0, 0.0,    # first axis
                           0.0, 1.0, 0.0,    # 2nd axis
                          0.0, 0.0, 20.0,    # axis rotation
                                       0,    # Type of lightsource (0=point,1=directional,2=none)
                         (255, 255, 255),    # Lightsource color (r,g,b)
                           0.5, 0.5, 2.0,    # light position
                         -1.0, -1.0, 1.0,    # light direction
             0.80, 0.50, 0.40, 0.0, 27.0,    # material (amb, diff, refl, spec, high)
                                    True,    # antialias
                                   False,    # tile
                                   False,    # new image
                                    True,    # transparency
                                    0.25,    # Sphere/cylinder radius (only used when maptype=1 or 3)
                           0.5, 0.5, 0.5,    # box size
                                    1.00,    # unused parameter Cylinder length
                                    None,    # Box front face (set these to -1 if not used)
                                    None,    # Box back face
                                    None,    # Box top face                           
                                    None,    # Box bottom face
                                    None,    # Box left face
                                    None,    # Box right face
                                    None,    # Cylinder top face (unused parameter)
                                    None)    # Cylinder bottom face (unused parameter)

This is the result using Map object and G'MIC:


Thank you anyway, you guys are being great in my coding learning journey.

That was just reflecting the difference between Python and Scheme
by the way great looking Pumpkin

The only difference a I see on the code is that some parameters were written in lowercase (True, False) and the last 8 parameters were written as None instead of -1.

Because:

1) in Python, the two boolean values are True and False, with an initial cap.
2) In Script-fu, you don't deal with Gimp objects (image, layers, paths...), directly but with a "handle" which is a positive integer number (more or less a sequence number of creation), so "no object" is the special "-1" handle. In Python-fu, the Gimp objects are wrapped in a Python object, so "no object" is "None", which is the reserved value for "nothing" in Python (most other programming languages use "null" instead).

@Graechan, Thank you for the amiability to help! What I'm trying to archive is creating a carved pumpkin. By the way, I'm using the pumpkin gradient created by our latest friend Oregonian: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=622&p=6131&hilit=pumpkin+gradient#p6131

@Thanks for the explanation Ofnuts, I couldn't said it better myself.
