yet again - another text effect from the creative mind of bored Tony 
Falling Binary
| code: |
%Falling Binary
%Turns text string into Binary and makes bits falls,
%slowly rebuilding letters from them
%Created by: Tony Targonski on October 27, 2003
%for www.compsci.ca
procedure binaryFall (text : string, nRows : int)
var list : array 1 .. length (text) of string %store binary
var fontID : int := Font.New ("Arial:14")
var number : int %here for calculations
for i : 1 .. length (text)
list (i) := intstr (ord (text (i)), 8, 2) %convert text to binary
loop
if list (i) (1) = " " then
list (i) := list (i) (2 .. *) %remove any extra " "s
else
exit
end if
end loop
list (i) := repeat ("0", 8 - length (list (i))) + list (i) + repeat (" ", nRows) %add any missing leading 0s and ending spaces
end for
for s : 1 .. nRows + 8 %for num of rows
if s > nRows then %time to turn binary back into letters
for i : 1 .. length (text)
list (i) := list (i) (2 .. *) %cut leading bit off
end for
end if
for i : 1 .. length (text) %for each column
for l : 1 .. length (list (i)) %for each digit
%this number thingy makes sure that letters dont fall below sertain level
if s > nRows then
number := nRows
else
number := s
end if
Font.Draw (list (i) (l), i * 20, maxy - number * 14 + l * 14, fontID, black)
end for
end for
% drawline (0, maxy - 10 * 14, maxx, maxy - 10 * 14, black)
for i:1..length(text)
Font.Draw(text(i),i*20,maxy-nRows*14,fontID,black)
end for
Draw.FillBox(0,maxy-nRows*14+14,length(text)*20+20,maxy-nRows*14+round((s-nRows)/8*13),white)
View.Update
delay (250)
cls
end for
for i:1..length(text)
Font.Draw(text(i),i*20,maxy-nRows*14,fontID,black)
end for
View.Update %show off text to last
end binaryFall
|
kind of documented... not really... should be straight-farward.
The binary that's falling are real binary values of text passed to the method. Reading from bottom to up.
to run the effect:
| code: |
View.Set("offscreenonly")
binaryFall ("tony is bored", 20)
|
where it's
binaryFall(text:string, number_of_rows_to_fall:int) |

|
|
This is a lame strike out effect i made. Still has some length issues.
| code: |
var font : int
var strike : string
procedure strikeout (word : string, x : int, y : int, fontsize : int ,delaytime:int)
font := Font.New ("Ariel:" + intstr (fontsize))
Font.Draw (word, x, y, font, black)
strike := repeat ("_", length (word)- length (word) div 10 )
if length(strike)=1 then
Font.Draw (strike, x, y + (fontsize div 2), font, black)
else
for i: 1..length(strike)
Font.Draw (strike(1..i), x, y + (fontsize div 2), font, white)
Font.Draw (strike(1..i-1), x, y + (fontsize div 2), font, black)
delay(delaytime)
end for
Font.Draw (strike, x, y + (fontsize div 2), font, black)
end if
end strikeout
|
At the end try this to call the procedure
| code: |
strikeout ("Thoughtful", 100, 100, 20,100)
|

I'm not sure if this would help, but
| code: |
Font.Width(text:string, fontID:int)
|
might come in handy. It tells you the width of a textstring using sertain font in pixels. |

Hey thnx, now the length problem is fixed using the command u gave me.
I also added custom color. But still the effect is petty lame will do a better one if got more time. 
| code: |
var strike : string
procedure strikeout (word : string, x : int, y : int, fontsize : int ,delaytime:int,clr:int)
var font := Font.New ("Ariel:" + intstr (fontsize))
Font.Draw (word, x, y, font, clr)
strike :="_"
loop
exit when Font.Width(word, font)<Font.Width(strike, font)
strike := strike+"_"
end loop
if length(strike)=1 then
Font.Draw (strike, x, y + (fontsize div 2), font, clr)
else
for i: 1..length(strike)
Font.Draw (strike(1..i), x-3, y + (fontsize div 2), font, white)
Font.Draw (strike(1..i-1), x-3, y + (fontsize div 2), font, clr)
delay(delaytime)
end for
Font.Draw (strike, x-3, y + (fontsize div 2), font, clr)
end if
end strikeout
strikeout ("Thoughtful", 100, 100, 20,100,7)
strikeout ("ROCKS", 300, 300, 40,150,blue)

|
|
Well i made some other lame effects, please do not draw n e thing above 300 y pixels as i m using that area as the scratch pad.
PS:= Can n e one tell me how to use the whatdotcolor functions offscreen, as in how to draw something which has a position greater than maxx or maxy and use this function, because i first tried to use that but it didnt work.
Here are the 3 effects:
| code: |
procedure ThoughtEffect1 (word : string, x_pos : int, y_pos : int, fontsize : int, colur : int, delay_time : int)
var font : int := Font.New ("Batang:" + intstr (fontsize))
var xwidth : int := Font.Width (word, font)
var height, ascent, descent, internalLeading : int
Font.Sizes (font, height, ascent, descent, internalLeading)
var yheight : int := height
var clr : array 1 .. xwidth, 1 .. yheight of int
Font.Draw (word, 10, 300, font, colur)
for x : 1 .. xwidth
for y : 1 .. yheight
clr (x, y) := whatdotcolor (x + 10, 300 + y - descent)
end for
end for
drawfillbox (10, 298, 10 + xwidth, 300 + yheight, white)
for x : 1 .. xwidth
for y : 1 .. yheight
drawdot (x + x_pos, y + y_pos, clr (x, y))
end for
delay (20)
end for
end ThoughtEffect1
procedure ThoughtEffect2 (word : string, x_pos : int, y_pos : int, fontsize : int, colur : int, delay_time : int)
var font : int := Font.New ("Times New Roman:" + intstr (fontsize))
var xwidth : int := Font.Width (word, font)
var height, ascent, descent, internalLeading : int
Font.Sizes (font, height, ascent, descent, internalLeading)
var yheight : int := height
var clr : array 1 .. xwidth, 1 .. yheight of int
Font.Draw (word, 10, 300, font, colur)
for x : 1 .. xwidth
for y : 1 .. yheight
clr (x, y) := whatdotcolor (x + 10, 300 + y - descent)
end for
end for
drawfillbox (10, 298, 10 + xwidth, 300 + yheight, white)
for y : 1 .. yheight
for x : 1 .. xwidth
drawdot (x + x_pos, y + y_pos, clr (x, y))
end for
delay (20)
end for
end ThoughtEffect2
procedure ThoughtFadeIn (word : string, x_pos : int, y_pos : int, fontsize : int, colur : int, delay_time : int)
var font : int := Font.New ("Comic Sans MS:" + intstr (fontsize))
var xwidth : int := Font.Width (word, font)
var height, ascent, descent, internalLeading : int
var xrand, yrand : int
Font.Sizes (font, height, ascent, descent, internalLeading)
var yheight : int := height
var clr : array 1 .. xwidth, 1 .. yheight of int
Font.Draw (word, 10, 300, font, colur)
for x : 1 .. xwidth
for y : 1 .. yheight
clr (x, y) := whatdotcolor (x + 10, 300 + y - descent)
end for
end for
drawfillbox (10, 300 - descent, 10 + xwidth, 300 + yheight, white)
for duration : 1 .. 2
for l : 1 .. yheight
for k : 1 .. xwidth
randint (xrand, 1, xwidth)
randint (yrand, 1, yheight)
drawdot (xrand + x_pos, yrand + y_pos, clr (xrand, yrand))
end for
delay (delay_time)
end for
end for
for y : 1 .. yheight div 2 + 1
for x : 1 .. xwidth
drawdot (x + x_pos, y + y_pos, clr (x, y))
drawdot (x + x_pos, (yheight - y) + y_pos, clr (x, yheight - y))
end for
delay (20)
end for
end ThoughtFadeIn

well I'm sure that dodge can tell you all about whatdotcolor
though you shouldn't be using it really.Got to be better ways out there. |

Well, i made another effect using the same method , now i use window.open for the scratch pad. N E ways this actually look pretty okay.
PS:= Can any one tell me the command to get the RGB values of pixels.
| code: |
procedure ThoughtRainbow (word : string, x_pos : int, y_pos : int, fontsize : int, delay_time : int)
var backgroundcolor : int := white
var font : int := Font.New ("Ariel:" + intstr (fontsize))

var height, ascent, descent, internalLeading : int

var yheight : int := height
var clr : array 1 .. xwidth, 1 .. yheight of int
var win : int := Window.Open ("graphics:" + intstr (xwidth) + ";" + intstr (yheight))
Font.Draw (word, 0, -3 + descent, font, black)
for x : 1 .. xwidth
for y : 1 .. yheight
clr (x, y) := whatdotcolor (x, y - descent)
end for
end for
drawfillbox (10, 298, xwidth, yheight, backgroundcolor)
Window.Close (win)
for i : 1 .. 1
for x : 1 .. (xwidth div 7) * i
for y : 1 .. yheight
if clr (x, y) not= backgroundcolor then
case i of
label 1 :
clr (x, y) := red
label 2 :
clr (x, y) := 42

clr (x, y) := yellow
label 4 :
clr (x, y) := green
label 5 :
clr (x, y) := 11
label 6 :
clr (x, y) := blue

I think the rainbow effect would look better it was vertical instead of horizontal  |

nice......
that is some cool stuff.....
though it looked cooler when you use 27 as the color to draw the word, then the word blends into the background, but you can still see it, because it's a bit darker than the background.

By the way do you know a way to get RGB values of dots. |

then use RGB.GetColor |
