Strange issue with text in Painter [message #50852] Wed, 09 January 2019 11:23 Go to next message

Hi,

Here's a strange issue: When I render a map using Painter, sometimes some letter does not render at all at specific scales. Alternatively, as you can see in the attached picture, it may render at false scale:

index.php?t=getfile&id=5733&private=0

When rotating the map slightly, the same text renders correctly:

index.php?t=getfile&id=5734&private=0

...Unless when the rotation is exactly 90, 180 or 270 degrees, which causes similar scaling error.

Another variant is that the letter appears to be completely absent.

BUT: when zooming the map, the letter renders perfectly OK.

There is no difference if Painter is in MT or ST mode.

Finally, this behavior persists for that run of the program only. If I close and restart the program, the same letter will likely render OK all the time, but there may (or may not) be another letter that suffers from the same problem.

I think this is some sort of initialization problem with fonts... but who knows.

Best regards,

Tom

Hi,

Here's some more. In this picture two of the letters have shrinked in the middle of a word:

index.php?t=getfile&id=5736&private=0

When zooming in, the text gets fixed:

index.php?t=getfile&id=5735&private=0

Instead of a testcase, here's a clip of the code I use for rendering the text with Painter:

			Font fnt(font);
			fnt.Height((int)floor(height_dp)).Bold(object.bold).Italic(object.italic==1).Underline(object.selected);
			
			Pointf p(project.Transform(object.x,object.y));
			double  rot=object.rotation+rotation;
			rot+=object.no_rotate?-GetViewRotation():0;

			painter.Begin();

			painter.Translate(p);
			if(rot) painter.Rotate(-rot*DEGR2RAD);
			switch(object.italic){
				case 2:
					painter.Transform(Xform2D::Sheer(-0.3));
					break;
				case 3:
					painter.Transform(Xform2D::Sheer(0.2));
					break;
			}
			
			Vector<String> lines=Split(text,10);
			
			for(int row=0;row<lines.GetCount();row++){
				Size sz=GetTextSize(lines[row],fnt);
				Pointf delta(0,0);
				switch(object.attpoint){
					case 1:	// 1 = Top left
						break;
					case 2: // Top Center
						delta.x=-sz.cx/2;
						break;
					case 3: // Top Right
						delta.x=-sz.cx;
						break;
					case 4: // Middle Left
						delta.y=-sz.cy/2;
						break;
					case 5: // Middle Center
						delta.y=-sz.cy/2;
						delta.x=-sz.cx/2;
						break;
					case 6: // Middle Right
						delta.y=-sz.cy/2;
						delta.x=-sz.cx;
						break;
					default:
					case 7: // Bottom Left
						delta.y=-sz.cy;
						break;
					case 8: // Bottom Center
						delta.y=-sz.cy;
						delta.x=-sz.cx/2;
						break;
					case 9: // Bottom Right
						delta.y=-sz.cy;
						delta.x=-sz.cx;
						break;
				}
				delta.y+=row*height_dp*1.5; // sz.cy
				painter.Text(delta,lines[row],fnt);
			}
			
			if(edgecolor.a) painter.Stroke(height_dp*0.1,edgecolor);
			painter.Fill(textcolor);
			painter.End();


Best regards,

Tom

I can see nothing obvious, but it feels like caching issue.

Please try this:

void ApproximateChar(LinearPathConsumer& t, Pointf at, int ch, Font fnt, double tolerance)
{
	PAINTER_TIMING("ApproximateChar");
	Value v;
	INTERLOCKED {
		PAINTER_TIMING("ApproximateChar::Fetch");
		static LRUCache<Value, GlyphKey> cache;
		cache.Shrink(500000);
		sMakeGlyph h;
		h.gk.fnt = fnt;
		h.gk.chr = ch;
		h.gk.tolerance = tolerance;
		v = cache.Get(h);
	}
#if 1
	GlyphPainter chp;
	chp.move = chp.pos = Null;
	chp.tolerance = tolerance;
	PaintCharacter(chp, Pointf(0, 0), ch, fnt);
	Vector<float>& g = chp.glyph;
#else
	const Vector<float>& g = ValueTo< Vector<float> >(v);
#endif
	int i = 0;
	while(i < g.GetCount()) {
		Pointf p;
		p.x = g[i++];
		if(p.x > 1e30) {
			p.x = g[i++];
			p.y = g[i++];
			t.Move(p + at);
		}
		else {
			PAINTER_TIMING("ApproximateChar::Line");
			p.y = g[i++];
			t.Line(p + at);
		}
	}
}


(This switches caching off.)

Hi,

Thanks! I will check this too tomorrow!

Anyway, if this does not sort out easily, I can store the problematic sequence in a Painting and serialize it in a file for you to check out. (The same procedure as last time, when there was a complex Painter issue.)

Thanks,

Tom

Yes, good idea.

Also, if my code change does not solve the problem, try this:

void BufferPainter::CharacterOp(const Pointf& p, int ch, Font fnt)
{
	LLOG("@ CharacterOp " << p << ", " << ch << ", " << fnt);
#if 1
	DoMove0();
	PaintCharacter(*this, p, ch, fnt);
#else
	move = current = EndPoint(p, false);
	auto& m = PathAdd<CharData>(CHAR);
	m.p = EndPoint(p, false);
	m.ch = ch;
	m.fnt = fnt;
	path_info->ischar = true;
	EvenOdd();
#endif
}


(It is similar - removing caching - just on another level)

Hi Mirek,

The change in ApproximateChar() appears to fix the issue. However, as can be expected, the rendering speed drops dramatically.

I will next revert the ApproximateChar() changes and then test the BufferPainter::CharacterOp() change...

Best regards,

Tom

Hi,

Also the change in BufferPainter::CharacterOp() seems to fix the issue. Similarly, the rendering speed drops.

The special thing about these maps I'm rendering is that they have an extremely small change in the text rotation thorough out the map page as they have been transformed from one coordinate projection to another (Transverse Mercator to Mercator in this case) and this involves a change in text rotation by the amount of meridian convergence value. This boils down to just parts of a degree through out the entire map width. I do not know if the caching gets affected by this or not.

I also generated a serialized painting, but it did not exhibit the issue. I think this is because the history for the cache is different and therefore the problem does not show up.

Best regards,

Tom

So I am looking into caching right now.. One possibility is that this is caused by font replacements.

What is the Font use? If it is anything else than arial, does changing the font to Arial fix the issue?

The font was "font=Font(Font::SANSSERIF,12);"

Changed to "font=Font(Font::ARIAL,12);", but nothing changes.

(I think the enum makes these two the same.)

Could you add these DLOGs

struct GlyphKey {
	Font   fnt;
	int    chr;
	double tolerance;
	
	bool operator==(const GlyphKey& b) const {
		DLOG("*** operator==");
		DDUMP(fnt);
		DDUMP(b.fnt);
		DDUMP(chr);
		DDUMP(b.chr);
		return fnt == b.fnt && chr == b.chr && tolerance == b.tolerance;
	}
	unsigned GetHashValue() const {
		return CombineHash(fnt, chr, tolerance);
	}
};

struct sMakeGlyph : LRUCache<Value, GlyphKey>::Maker {
	GlyphKey gk;

	GlyphKey Key() const     { return gk; }
	int      Make(Value& v) const {
		GlyphPainter gp;
		gp.move = gp.pos = Null;
		gp.tolerance = gk.tolerance;
		DLOG("*** Make");
		DDUMP(GetHashValue(gk));
		DDUMP(gk.fnt);
		DDUMP(gk.chr);
		PaintCharacter(gp, Pointf(0, 0), gk.chr, gk.fnt);
		int sz = gp.glyph.GetCount() * 4;
		v = RawPickToValue(pick(gp.glyph));
		return sz;
	}
};

void ApproximateChar(LinearPathConsumer& t, Pointf at, int ch, Font fnt, double tolerance)
{
	PAINTER_TIMING("ApproximateChar");
	Value v;
	INTERLOCKED {
		DLOG("==== ApproximateChar " << ch << " " << fnt);
		PAINTER_TIMING("ApproximateChar::Fetch");
		static LRUCache<Value, GlyphKey> cache;
		cache.Shrink(500000);
		sMakeGlyph h;
		h.gk.fnt = fnt;
		h.gk.chr = ch;
		h.gk.tolerance = tolerance;
		DDUMP(GetHashValue(h.gk));
		v = cache.Get(h);
	}
#if 0
	GlyphPainter chp;
	chp.move = chp.pos = Null;
	chp.tolerance = tolerance;
	PaintCharacter(chp, Pointf(0, 0), ch, fnt);
	const Vector<float>& g = chp.glyph;
#else
	const Vector<float>& g = ValueTo< Vector<float> >(v);
#endif
	int i = 0;
	while(i < g.GetCount()) {
		Pointf p;
		p.x = g[i++];
		if(p.x > 1e30) {
			p.x = g[i++];
			p.y = g[i++];
			t.Move(p + at);
		}
		else {
			PAINTER_TIMING("ApproximateChar::Line");
			p.y = g[i++];
			t.Line(p + at);
		}
	}
}


then bring it into error state, send me the screenshot and .log?

Thanks,

Mirek

Hi,

Here you go! Please find attached a the log, a screenshot and the serialized painting of the same.

As you can see in the painting, the text should read 'Perttilä', not ' erttilä'.

(You can view the painting using the PainterBench -tool.)

BR,

Tom

That is by design. It forces you to remove LOGs that you have inserted for debugging purposes. Not ideal, but better than to have logfile overcrowded with forgotten debugging info that you have needed 5 years ago Smile

No luck... Let us add more logging:

struct GlyphKey {
	Font   fnt;
	int    chr;
	double tolerance;
	
	bool operator==(const GlyphKey& b) const {
		DLOG("*** operator==");

		DDUMP(b.fnt);
		DDUMP(chr);
		DDUMP(b.chr);
		return fnt == b.fnt && chr == b.chr && tolerance == b.tolerance;
	}
	unsigned GetHashValue() const {
		return CombineHash(fnt, chr, tolerance);
	}
};

struct sMakeGlyph : LRUCache<Value, GlyphKey>::Maker {
	GlyphKey gk;

	GlyphKey Key() const     { return gk; }
	int      Make(Value& v) const {
		GlyphPainter gp;
		gp.move = gp.pos = Null;
		gp.tolerance = gk.tolerance;
		DLOG("*** Make");
		DDUMP(GetHashValue(gk));
		DDUMP(gk.fnt);
		DDUMP(gk.chr);
		PaintCharacter(gp, Pointf(0, 0), gk.chr, gk.fnt);
		int sz = gp.glyph.GetCount() * 4;
		v = RawPickToValue(pick(gp.glyph));
		return sz;
	}
};

void ApproximateChar(LinearPathConsumer& t, Pointf at, int ch, Font fnt, double tolerance)
{
	PAINTER_TIMING("ApproximateChar");
	Value v;
	INTERLOCKED {
		DLOG("==== ApproximateChar " << ch << " " << fnt);

		static LRUCache<Value, GlyphKey> cache;
		cache.Shrink(500000);
		sMakeGlyph h;
		h.gk.fnt = fnt;
		h.gk.chr = ch;
		h.gk.tolerance = tolerance;
		DDUMP(GetHashValue(h.gk));
		v = cache.Get(h);
		DDUMP(ValueTo< Vector<float> >(v));
	}
#if 0
	GlyphPainter chp;
	chp.move = chp.pos = Null;
	chp.tolerance = tolerance;
	PaintCharacter(chp, Pointf(0, 0), ch, fnt);
	const Vector<float>& g = chp.glyph;
#else
	const Vector<float>& g = ValueTo< Vector<float> >(v);
#endif
	int i = 0;
	while(i < g.GetCount()) {
		Pointf p;
		p.x = g[i++];
		if(p.x > 1e30) {
			p.x = g[i++];

			t.Move(p + at);
		}
		else {
			PAINTER_TIMING("ApproximateChar::Line");
			p.y = g[i++];
			t.Line(p + at);
		}
	}
}


the same (no need to send painting, just .log and tell me what letter is missing / wrong).

Hi,

Here's the new log. No images or paintings this time Smile

The failed letter was a capital 'U' this time (at false size).

Interestingly it always has two operator== hash compares until a match is found. (I repeated the rendering multiple times to find the spot in log more easily.) Is this multiple hash match affecting the caching in some way?

BR,

Tom

PS: When a wrong cache item is picked for a character, it may have wrong size and wrong Italic/Normal coding, but it always is the correct letter (if it is visible at all). I think the complete lack of visibility might come from very small size of the cached character. This is almost like the LRUCache only looked at the character code when picking the result. Well, of course this is not the case, since otherwise most of the text items would be trash I guess...

That is hashcode collision. Nothing to worry about.

Wrong italic/normal bit is new - is that sure?

Hi,

The first message in this thread portrays that: The 'Örviksudden' should have been in italic, but was instead shown with straight up 'Ö', if you look at it carefully. I have seen this in other tests too occasionally, so I can confirm it.

Best regards,

Tom

Still no clues... Anyway, let us modify logging a bit:

void ApproximateChar(LinearPathConsumer& t, Pointf at, int ch, Font fnt, double tolerance)
{
	PAINTER_TIMING("ApproximateChar");
	Value v;
	INTERLOCKED {
		DLOG("==== ApproximateChar " << ch << " " << (char)ch << " " << fnt << ", tolerance: " << tolerance);
		PAINTER_TIMING("ApproximateChar::Fetch");
		static LRUCache<Value, GlyphKey> cache;
		cache.Shrink(500000);
		sMakeGlyph h;
		h.gk.fnt = fnt;
		h.gk.chr = ch;
		h.gk.tolerance = tolerance;
		v = cache.Get(h);
		DDUMP(ValueTo< Vector<float> >(v));
#if 1
		GlyphPainter chp;
		chp.move = chp.pos = Null;
		chp.tolerance = tolerance;
		PaintCharacter(chp, Pointf(0, 0), ch, fnt);
		DDUMP(chp.glyph);
		ASSERT(ValueTo< Vector<float> >(v) == chp.glyph);
#endif
	}
	const Vector<float>& g = ValueTo< Vector<float> >(v);
	int i = 0;
	while(i < g.GetCount()) {
		Pointf p;
		p.x = g[i++];
		if(p.x > 1e30) {
			p.x = g[i++];
			p.y = g[i++];
			t.Move(p + at);
		}
		else {
			PAINTER_TIMING("ApproximateChar::Line");
			p.y = g[i++];
			t.Line(p + at);
		}
	}
}


(If error is here, it should also assert....)

Well, alternative theory is that some letters are rendered with wrong transformation matrix... I guess random matrix would explain both wrong size and "unitalicizing".....

Anyway, it would probably also create some more profound artefacts that you have not observed yet (?)
