How do i get noise to work in basil.js? - adobe-indesign

I dont manage to make b.noise work in basil.js. I allways get the error "ReferenceError: Uint8Array does not have a constructor". What am I doing wrong?
function draw() {
var xoff = 0.0;
var xincrement = 0.01;
xoff += xincrement;
var n = b.noise(xoff);
b.println(n);
}
b.go();

We just closed this bug, so your code will be valid. The fix is already up on github. It will be included in the next release, which will be very soon.

nothing! this is a bug in basil.js :( sorry! i've submitted the bug.

Why processing keeps saying "SyntaxError : Expected ; but found size" but it run just ok in p5.js online editor?

The processing console keeps saying Syntax Error: Expected ; but found size. I have copy pasted my code to p5.js online editor and it ran just fine.
var ur;
var x;
function setup() {
createCanvas(400,400);
x=width;
ur = getURL();
}
function draw() {
background(100);
fill(0);
noStroke();
let size = 9;
textSize(size);
text(ur,x,height/2);
x--;
if(x<-1*(ur.length)*size) x = width;
}
The problem is not with let, but with the use of 'size' as a variable name, which is (or was, see this ticket for more info) a reserved word in p5.js. If you change 'size' to 'theSize', for example, things should work fine.

"fail to excute createRadialGradient,the provided double value is non-finite" on my canvas animation

I was intending to make a color gradient circle animation with canvas but I got this error "fail to execute createRadialGradient, the provided double value is non-finite" in the console. I am coding this with my MAC but when I copied those code to my windows PC it is just run perfectly. which is really confused me. the following error code would be like:
//...within my circle constructor
this.color = function(){
var grad = ctx.createRadialGradient(this.x,this.y,0,this.x,this.y,this.r);
var colorArray = ['green','red','yellow','blue','purple'];
grad.addColorStop(0,colorArray[Math.floor(Math.random()*colorArray.length)]);
grad.addColorStop(.2,colorArray[Math.floor(Math.random()*colorArray.length)]);
return grad
I just don't think there is any error with my color()function but when I called this with animation in later phase the error just popped out. Is there anyone could help me with this? All the source code could be viewed at https://github.com/mystreie1126/CanvasExperiment/blob/master/Color%20gradient%20Circle%20Animation/colorCircle.html
thanks in advance

jsplumb library getconnection function is not returning values

Hi all I am working in JS plumb library for making connections.I am stuck at one point and need help from experts.
Here is my scenario.
I have many connections and what I want is that when I click on one connection a certain label appears on it to show that it is selected.When I click one some other connection previously clicked connection disappears and new connection get selected.
What I have done so far is that
jsPlumbInst.bind('click', function(c) {
c.showOverlay('selected');
var previously_active = jsPlumbInst.getConnections({scope:"active"});//this function not returning me values
if(previously_active.length != 0) {
/*So never go in this statement*/
previously_active[0].hideOverlay('selected');
previously_active.scope("jsPlumb_DefaultScope");
}
c.scope = "active";
});
Here the problem is that my connection scope is set to "active"
jsPlumbInst.getConnections({scope:"active"})
is not returning anything.
So can any one kindly guide me that whether I am doing right?
Or is there any other way to achieve this?
var sourcecon = jsPlumb.getConnections({source: e}) ;
for(i=0; i<sourcecon.length; i++)
{
var target = getName(sourcecon[i].targetId) ;
var source = getName(sourcecon[i].sourceId) ;
removefrommatrix(source, target,sourcecon[i].sourceId,sourcecon[i].targetId) ;
}
This is code snippet which I am using. It works fine. Your code looks fine except just one difference that you have used jsPlumbInst rather than jsPlumb. I guess that could be the problem. For me its like static class in Java.Not sure about that. But try and see if it could help you.Seems like I am almost a year late in replying. All the best :-)

Actionscript 2: Event Cue Points: findNearestCuePoint

Hello everyone and anyone!
Ok... I have been banging my head against the wall with this issue for literally weeks, but I still cannot find an answer that has successfully resolved the issue.
I created an FLA and placed a FLV component with the instance name of videoPlay on the stage.
videoPlay is pathed to a streaming FLV with embedded event cue points. The cue points are numbered sequentially from narration1 to narration16.
I established a listener object:
var videoPlayCuePointListener:Object = new Object();
The event listener for the cue points:
videoPlayCuePointListener.cuePoint = function(eventObject:Object):Void{
if(eventObject.info.name == "narration1"){_root.cc_box.cc_txt.htmlText = cueTxt1);}
else if(eventObject.info.name == "narration2"){_root.cc_box.cc_txt.htmlText = cueTxt2);}
etc, through narration16 }
and so on through narration16.
Then I attached the event listener to the FLV component on stage:
videoPlay.addEventListener("cuePoint", videoPlayCuePointListener);
All of this works very well. As the FLV plays, each event cue point fires off the correct text to the cc_txt dynamic text box.
The issue I am having is that I cannot find the nearest cue point to the FLV playhead so that I can fire events when the user scrubs the timeline.
I have researched this as thoroughly as I possibly could before finally deciding to post the issue, but although the documentation and various postings regarding findNearestCuePoint discovered throughout the web have provided numerous examples, not a single one has been successful.
I have attempted to add a listener to videoPlay that creates an object (nearestCue) and gives nearestCue the value of videoPlay.findNearestCuePoint(videoPlay.playheadTime), then read out nearestCue's name, label, etc. No dice.
Nothing suggested in any posts I have reviewed (many, many posts) has provided an answer.
This seems like it would be the easiest thing to accomplish but I have not been successful a single time.
Any suggestions or assistance would be much appreciated.
Thank you for your time!
Haven't touched AS2 in a long time. I've done a basic test and findNearestCuePoint worked. You're using the FLVPlayback component, right ?
Here's what I've tried:
videoPlayer.autoPlay = false;
onEnterFrame = function():Void{
videoPlayer.seekPercent(_xmouse/Stage.width * 100);
videoPlayer.play();
trace(videoPlayer.findNearestCuePoint(videoPlayer.playheadTime).name);
}
The recommended way would be to find the nearest cue point in an playheadUpdate handler which is triggered after the playhead changes it's value. (e.g. 1. tell the playhead to move, 2. the playhead actually changes the value, 3. the playheadUpdate gets called)
Here's a more basic approach:
onEnterFrame = function():Void{
if(videoPlayer.metadata) trace(videoPlayer.findNearestCuePoint(_xmouse/Stage.width * videoPlayer.metadata.duration).name);
}
In my test I've added 4 cue points. Tried them all: actionscript/event/navigation.
The strange thing was when I tried to access the cuePoints property through videoPlayer
or through videoPlayer.metadata I got an array of 8 undefined objects, and the length of the array was 4 when I traced it. Don't know what the issue is, maybe encoding/codec and as2 compatibility, not sure.
Anyway...as long as you've got your cuePoints array, you can manually find the closest one by looping though all of them and getting the smallest absolute difference between each cue point time and the current time:
function getClosestCuePoint(cuePoints:Array,time:Number):Object{
var numCuePoints:Number = cuePoints.length;
var minDist:Number = 100000000,result:Object;
for(var i:Number = 0 ; i < numCuePoints ; i++){
if(Math.abs(cuePoints[i].time - time) < minDist){
minDist = Math.abs(cuePoints[i].time - time);
result = cuePoints[i];
}
}
return result;
}
Here's a mockup example: let's pretend some boxes on the screen are the cue points and the _xmouse position would be the playhead time. Try this in a new document:
//fake cue points
var numCuePoints:Number = 5;
var cuePoints = [];
for(var i:Number = 0 ; i < numCuePoints ; i++) cuePoints[i] = {name:'narration ' + (i+1),time: 10 + (80 + Math.random() * 20) * i}
//visual hint - separated from the cue points
for(var i:Number = 0 ; i < numCuePoints ; i++) drawBox(this,0x009900,10,15,cuePoints[i].time,Stage.width * .5);
var playhead:TextField = drawText(this,'playhead');
//playhead update
onEnterFrame = function():Void{
playhead._x = _xmouse;
playhead.setTextFormat(new TextFormat('Verdana',11));
playhead.text = 'time: ' + _xmouse+' / cue ' + getClosestCuePoint(cuePoints,_xmouse).name;
}
//find the shortest marker within the shortest distance from the current value
function getClosestCuePoint(cuePoints:Array,time:Number):Object{
var numCuePoints:Number = cuePoints.length;
var minDist:Number = 100000000,result:Object;
for(var i:Number = 0 ; i < numCuePoints ; i++){
if(Math.abs(cuePoints[i].time - time) < minDist){
minDist = Math.abs(cuePoints[i].time - time);
result = cuePoints[i];
}
}
return result;
}
//utils
function drawBox(target:MovieClip,color:Number,width:Number,height:Number,x:Number,y:Number):Void{
target.lineStyle(3,color);
target.moveTo(x,y);
target.lineTo(x+width,y);
target.lineTo(x+width,y+height);
target.lineTo(x,y+height);
target.lineTo(x,y);
}
function drawText(target:MovieClip,name:String):TextField{
var result:TextField = target.createTextField(name,target.getNextHighestDepth(),0,Stage.width * .5-20,100,20);
result.autoSize = 'left';
result.border = true;
result.selectable = false;
return result;
}

George,
I believe I discovered the issue, and I think it was something that you covered in your previous post, but I glossed over it by accident.
The F4V I was working with had the cue points embedded using Adobe Media Encoder... and that was the entire issue.
I went back and exported the cue points out to XML, then stripped them out of the F4V and re-encoded it without them. Then I edited the XML to change all of the event cue point to actionscript and imported them into the FLA file using the FLV component properties dialogue.
Presto, amazingly enough, I had no issues finding the cue points, tracing them, and using them for any purpose.
So in the future, I just need to remember to set up the cue points in the Properties dialogue and set them to actionscript and I should be golden. So far, it has worked flawlessly with all of the F4V files since making the change.
Thank you very much for your detailed response and your follow up!

JOGL: some GL constants can not be resolved

i've written a java program with JOGL included.
Everything worked fine, until i wanted to render an image (jpg,gif,png) with a texture.
i found following code snippet:
import javax.media.opengl.*;
...
GL2 gl = drawable.getGL().getGL2();
gl.glTexParameteri(GL.GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL.GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL.GL_CLAMP);
gl.glTexParameteri(GL.GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL.GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL.GL_CLAMP);
gl.glTexParameteri(GL.GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL.GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL.GL_LINEAR);
gl.glTexParameteri(GL.GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL.GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL.GL_LINEAR);
gl.glTexEnvf(GL.GL_TEXTURE_ENV, GL.GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE, GL.GL_REPLACE);
gl.glTexImage2D(GL.GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL.GL_RGBA, w, h, 0, GL.GL_RGBA, GL.GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, bb);
int left = 100;
int top = 100;
gl.glEnable(GL.GL_TEXTURE_2D);
gl.glBindTexture(GL.GL_TEXTURE_2D, 13);
gl.glBegin(GL.GL_POLYGON);
...
the problem is that Eclipse can't resolve GL.GL_CLAMP, GL.GL_TEXTURE_ENV, GL.GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE and GL.GL_POLYGON.
as an alternative for GL.GL_CLAMP there is just GL.GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE.
i can't even find GL.GL_QUAD, just GL.GL_TRIANGLE.
what is wrong?
do i missed an import?
other GL constants can be resolved.
regards,
peter
The proper way in JOGL2 is GL2.GL_CLAMP (not GL.GL_CLAMP). API Docs
