Implode on specified position on image - wand

I have a question regarding the implode function (https://docs.wand-py.org/en/0.6.7/guide/fx.html#implode). Is there any possibility to use the implode function for a point in the image that is not the center? By passing e.g. a tuple of coordinates?

I'll share my workaround just in case. I've written a small script to find out the position of the point I want to implode by clicking on it on the image with the mouse. I end up with coordinates (e.g. 40,30 in a image with the shape 100, 100).
In the next step I'd have to somehow "move" my pixel at 40,30 into the image center. To do so I've decided to add borders around my image accordingly (with cv2). So I'll have to add 20 horizontally on the left side of my image (so the image is 120,100 and my pixel at 40,30 has the same distance to each border (60 to the right, 60 to the left). I do the same for the vertical axis and end up, in this case, with an image with the dimension of 120x140.
Now I cam implode at my specified point and everything is able to being automated if I cover four cases of the point I want to implode at is either higher or lower of h/2 or w/2 so I know on which side I have to add the border.
Afterwards you can use the trim function to get rid of the extended border and you're good to go.

texture not applied properly with Three.js

I work with Forge Autodesk, and I want to apply a texture to some rectangle object. In fact I just needed some plan, but I was given a rectangle. So I want to apply my image on the main face of the rectangle.
const mytex = THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture(mytexture)
// Repeat image through object
mytex.wrapS = THREE.RepeatWrapping //ClampToEdgeWrapping //MirroredRepeatWrapping //RepeatWrapping
mytex.wrapT = THREE.RepeatWrapping //ClampToEdgeWrapping //MirroredRepeatWrapping //RepeatWrapping
mytex.mapping = THREE.UVMapping
mytex.repeat.set (0.05, 0.05)
console.log("applied texture")
But I get this problem : a part of my image appears on the right upper side (upper and right corners are cut, so not on the rectangle), but the left and bottom sides are stretched across the rest of the rectangle face.
I would like to adapt my image so that its dimension fit the rectangle's dimensions, and not just repeat it.
I read this and this. I think my code is correctly written, but I may be missing a parameter or set the wrong one... The 2 images I am testing are 676x676 and 1024x484 pixels. I cannot access the rectangle dimensions from my function (I don't think so).
I tried to just repeat the image too but it does not work either...
Any idea ?

Moving the background image in mit app inventor

Is it possible to move the background image in app inventor?
I'm trying to use the call canvas background pixel color block to get the color of different parts of the background. If I can't move the background image, can I use math blocks to change the x and y parts of the call canvas background pixel color block to a variable?
Important Note
I am referring to the image sprite, under the drawings and animations tab.
An image will have coordinates once you put it inside of a canvas. In order to move it, create 2 sliders with 2 balls and 2 narrow canvases that are (seemingly) equal to the ball's diameter. (Place underneath the image, make sure the image isn't too big)
Go into blocks and place the "when dragged" command, and hook up the change in the ball's x/y to the change of the images x/y. (Assuming you know how to make the ball move while you drag it, also very simplistic). This will make the image's movement equal to the ball's movement (1:1 ratio) Depending on how much you want the image to move, your'e going to have to implement a ratio.
When you drag the ball(s), the image should move with it.

imageresizer: how can I get crop and rotate to work in an editor in the right order?

I am using http://imageresizing.net/ tools to create an editor.
The user can crop and rotate, but when they crop first and then rotate they lose the correct crop coords because the image coords have changed
for example, given a 100x100 image with a crop of the top left 50x50 pixels would then get rotated clockwise and now shows the crop as the original bottom left 50x50 pixels of the source image.
another example with images:
step one crop:
step two rotate:
coords haven't changed, but now it is no longer the proper crop area
does anyone know of a way to have the crop be relative to the original instead of the origin point?
Are you building something like StudioJS?
StudioJS uses ImageResizer.js to manage the command string and translate co-ordinates.
Consider a workflow where your user crops, rotates, and then re-crops the image. To preserve the original crop you will need to translate the coordinates in javascript. ImageResizer.js can do this.

Labeling plots with images in Matlab

Is there any way of labeling plots with images. For example, when I use the following:
plot(Y(:,1),Y(:,2),'o','LineWidth',2);
gname(names)
I can label each dot in a plot with a name. Is there any way to insert images instead of names?
It is possible, but not as convenient as gname by far. You can use the low-level version of image to insert images in your plot at arbitrary positions. Here's a simple example which puts the "Mandrill" image that comes with Matlab with its upper left corner pixel at the position (pi/2, 0):
% example plot
x = linspace(0, 2*pi, 100);
plot(x, cos(x))
% insert image
load mandrill
colormap(map)
image('CData', X, 'XData', [pi/2, pi/2 + 0.5], 'YData', [0, -0.3])
The result looks like this:
Problems with this approach:
There is no interactive point-and-click facility, you have to explicitly insert and position the image labels programmatically, or program such a point-and-click facility yourself. ginput might help doing so.
A figure window can only have one associated color map. That means if you have different images, they either all have to use the same colormap or have to be truecolor images.
Not just the position, but also the display size of the image has to be specified in the call to image, and both are by default specified with respect to the plot's coordinate system. This makes it hard to achieve the correct aspect ratio. You can switch (temporarily) to absolute units using the axes property 'Units' , but then you have to figure out the correct position in e.g. absolute millimeters or inches. Moreover, images are usually indexed with vertical coordinates increasing from top to bottom, while plots usually have vertical coordinates increasing from bottom to top. This is the reason for the negative value -0.3 in the 'YData' property above.
Alternatively, you can insert images each in their own little axes sitting on top of the plot's axes, which makes it easy to get the right orientation and aspect ratio using axis image. You'll still have the problem though to figure out the correct position for the axes.

BitmapData pattern fill in actionscript 3.0

How do i fill some BitmapData image with other image pattern in as 3.0? For example, i have an white image with black square at the center which would be "square:BitmapData" and the other image with little(2x2) blue circle which i would call "circle:BitmapData". I want to fill that square with this blue circles, is there any way to do this?
UPDATE
Here i found the example of what i need to do:
This is two images (left is like my square, right is like the blue circle)
http://pix.samoucka.ru/img/content/graphics/thewebschedule/8/466.gif
And this is how it would look after filling

You can try using copyPixels() and iterating though x and y to tile the whole thing, copyPixels() is very fast.
Or
It might be simpler to create a Sprite and use graphics.beginBitmapFill() then graphics.drawRect() with the correct size, then draw() to the BitmapData in the correct position.
If you need to determine the size and position of the black square, getColorBoundsRect() should do the job.
