Hi,

I tried with MODE_NOAA too, but some of the borders still show a 'dashed' gap. It is sharper of course in this case.

Could it be possible to fix those gaps seen in MODE_NOAA rendering and then internally use that mode with FILL_FAST while rest of the rendering is done according to the selected mode?

Or is there any other known way around this issue to clean up the visual appearance?

Best regards,

Tom

Ugly quick fix:

#include <CtrlLib/CtrlLib.h>

using namespace Upp;

class PainterImageMapping : public TopWindow {
public:
	typedef PainterImageMapping CLASSNAME;
	
	PainterImageMapping(){
		Sizeable();
	}
		
	virtual void Paint(Draw &draw){
		DrawPainter w(draw, GetSize());

		Image img = CreateImage(Size(500, 500), Black());

		// image coordinates
		Pointf iNW(0,0);
		Pointf iNE(img.GetWidth(),0);
		Pointf iSW(0,img.GetHeight());
		Pointf iSE(img.GetWidth(),img.GetHeight());
		
		w.Clear(White());
		
		dword flags=FILL_FAST;
		auto Do = [&](const Xform2D xform) {
			w.Fill(img, xform, flags).Stroke(2, img, xform, flags);
		};
		
		{
			Pointf nw(100,100);
			Pointf ne(700,100);
			Pointf sw(100,700);
			Pointf se(650,750);
			w.Move(nw).Line(ne).Line(se); Do(Xform2D::Map(iNW,iNE,iSE,nw,ne,se));
			w.Move(nw).Line(sw).Line(se); Do(Xform2D::Map(iNW,iSW,iSE,nw,sw,se));
		}
		{
			Pointf nw(700,100);
			Pointf ne(1400,120);
			Pointf sw(650,750);
			Pointf se(1300,720);
			w.Move(nw).Line(ne).Line(se); Do(Xform2D::Map(iNW,iNE,iSE,nw,ne,se));
			w.Move(nw).Line(sw).Line(se); Do(Xform2D::Map(iNW,iSW,iSE,nw,sw,se));
		}
		{
			Pointf nw(100,700);
			Pointf ne(650,750);
			Pointf sw(100,1200);
			Pointf se(650,1350);
			w.Move(nw).Line(ne).Line(se); Do(Xform2D::Map(iNW,iNE,iSE,nw,ne,se));
			w.Move(nw).Line(sw).Line(se); Do(Xform2D::Map(iNW,iSW,iSE,nw,sw,se));
		}
		{
			Pointf nw(650,750);
			Pointf ne(1300,720);
			Pointf sw(650,1350);
			Pointf se(1300,1220);
			w.Move(nw).Line(ne).Line(se); Do(Xform2D::Map(iNW,iNE,iSE,nw,ne,se));
			w.Move(nw).Line(sw).Line(se); Do(Xform2D::Map(iNW,iSW,iSE,nw,sw,se));
		}
	}
};

GUI_APP_MAIN
{
	PainterImageMapping().Run();
}

Yeah, in my previous message, I really confused MODE_NOAA with FILL_FAST. So no, MODE_NOAA can be a tiny bit faster, but really works just by rounding aliasing alpha to 0 or 255.

Hi,

OK, Thanks. It (adding Stroke) does work indeed, but the penalty is 40% increase in execution time.

-

Interestingly, this combo works too:
	BufferPainter w(ib,MODE_NOAA);

	dword flags=FILL_HREFLECT|FILL_VREFLECT|FILL_FAST;


But of course I do not wish to use MODE_NOAA as it ruins everything else.

Could this observation be used to tweak the same behavior out of BufferPainter using MODE_ANTIALIASED with minor modifications?

IMO, switching internally temporarily to MODE_NOAA while rendering with FILL_FAST is quite OK -- if only possible.

Best regards,

Tom

Well, the alternative is enlarge rectangles 1 pixel... That should be fast.

Hi,

Thanks Mirek! It works just perfectly.

I used the following pattern to sufficiently overlap and expand the triangles:
w.Move(nw+Pointf(-2,-1)).Line(ne+Pointf(1,-1)).Line(se+Pointf(1,1)).Fill(img, Xform2D::Map(iNW,iNE,iSE,nw,ne,se), flags);
w.Move(nw+Pointf(-1,-1)).Line(sw+Pointf(-1,1)).Line(se+Pointf(2,1)).Fill(img, Xform2D::Map(iNW,iSW,iSE,nw,sw,se), flags);

And: No observable slowdown! Smile

Thanks and best regards,

Tom
