We extract the data from the wireframe visualization, perform a
trivial transform, and display it. The perspective vs.
orthographic flag in the parameters is respected. (No rotation or
backface removal yet.)
Also, increased the thumbnail sizes in the visualization set editor
list from 48x48 to 64x64, because the nearest-pixel-scaled 48x48
looks nasty when used for wireframes.
Added some more plumbing. Updated visualization set edit dialog,
which now does word-wrapping correctly in the buttons. Added Alt+V
as the hotkey for Create/Edit Visualization Set, which allows you
to double-tap it to leap into the visualization editor.
Experimented with Path drawing, which looks like it could do just
what we need.
Also, show the file size in KB in the code/data/junk breakdown at the
bottom of the window. (Technically it's KiB, but that looked funny.)
We now store Visualizations, VisualizationAnimations, and
VisualizationSets as three separate lists linked by tag strings.
WARNING: this breaks existing projects with visualizations. The
test projects have been updated.
We now generate GIF images for visualizations and add inline
references to them in the HTML output.
Images are scaled using the HTML img properties. This works well
on some browsers, but others insist on "smooth" scaling that blurs
out the pixels. This may require a workaround.
An extra blank line is now added above visualizations. This helps
keep the image and data visually grouped.
The Apple II bitmap test project was updated to have a visualization
set with multiple images at the top of the file.
Added comments, renamed files, removed cruft.
Stop showing the visualization tag name in the code list. It's
often redundant with the code label, and it's distracting. (We may
want to make this an option so you can Ctrl+F to find a tag.)
First swing at a visualizer for Atari 2600 sprites and playfields.
Won't necessarily present an accurate view of what is displayed on
screen, but should provide a reasonable shape for data stored in
the obvious way.
The Adventure playfields looked squashed, so I added a simple row
duplication value.
Also, minor improvements to visualizers generally:
- Throw an exception, rather than an Assert, in VisBitmap8 when the
arguments are bad.
- Show the exception in the Visualization Edit dialog.
- If generation fails and we don't have an error message, show a
generic "stuff be broke" string.
- Set focus on OK button in Visualization Set Edit after editing,
so you can hit Enter twice after renaming a tag.
Various changes:
- Generally treat visualization sets like long comments and notes
when it comes to defining data region boundaries. (We were doing
this for selections; now we're also doing it for format-as-word
and in the data analyzer when scanning for strings/fill.)
- Clear the visualization cache when the address map is altered.
This is necessary for visualizers that dereference addresses.
- Read the Apple II screen image from a series of addresses rather
than a series of offsets. This allows it to work when the image
is contiguous in memory but split into chunks in the file.
- Put 1 pixel of padding around the images in the main code list,
so they don't blend into the background.
- Remember the last visualizer used, so we can re-use it the next
time the user selects "new".
- Move min-size hack from Loaded to ContentRendered, as it apparently
spoils CenterOwner placement.
Bitmap fonts are a series of (usually) 1x8 bitmaps, which we arrange
into a grid of cells.
Screen images are useful for embedded screens, or for people who want
to display stand-alone image files as disassembly projects.
Various improvements:
- Switched to ReadOnlyDictionary in Visualization to make it clear
that the parameter dictionary should not be modified.
- Added a warning to the Visualization Set editor that appears when
there are no plugins that implement a visualizer.
- Make sure an item is selected in the set editor after edit/remove.
- Replaced the checkerboard background with one that's a little bit
more grey, so it's more distinct from white pixel data.
- Added a new Apple II hi-res color converter whose output more
closely matches KEGS and AppleWin RGB.
- Added VisHiRes.cs to some Apple II system definitions.
- Added some test bitmaps for Apple II hi-res to the test directory.
(These are not part of an automated test.)
