How do I add url links to WinWheel.js image slices? - url

How do I add a clickable link to any of the image slices so the user can click a slice to go to a url? Currently they can spin the wheel to get a random url choice. I got the random spin part working using “IF” but I got stuck figuring out the image slice click idea.
I'm currently working at the top of page in an area called:
//add code here?
if (clickedSegment) {
clickedSegment.indicatedSegment = "Jane";
window.location = "https://www.mikeloucas.com";
theWheel.draw();
and I have one url working due to the "clickedSegment" but it's active on all the slices and not what I need (I'm try to target Jane) so I'll keep at it unless some has an answer.
Separately but related:
This is one of the image segments I'm trying to add add link to:
{'image' : 'https://mikeloucas.com/wheel/jane.png', 'text' : 'Jane'},
The original tutorial shows how to change the colour of a slice on click, but I’d like to go to a url instead.
Original Click Code: http://dougtesting.net/winwheel/docs/tut15_get_segment_clicked
The thing Im working on: https://codepen.io/mikeloucas/pen/qBarWoP
In my Codepen example I turned off the “IF” load url because its just in the way when testing, but feel free to turn it on see it in action. It’s WAY down the page lol; you’ll see:
if (indicatedSegment.text == "Jane") {
window.location = "https://www.mikeloucas.com";

WAS:
let clickedSegment= theWheel.getSegmentAt(e.clientX, e.clientY);
if (clickedSegment) {
clickedSegment.indicatedSegment = "Jane";
window.location = "https://www.mikeloucas.com";
theWheel.draw();
IS NOW:
let segmentImage = theWheel.getSegmentAt(e.clientX, e.clientY);
if (segmentImage.text == "Jane") {
window.location = "https://www.mikeloucas.com";}
else if (segmentImage.text == "othername")...{
}
...theWheel.draw();
The trick (for me) was changing "clickedSegment" to "segmentImage" because "segmentImage" was already calling the array of names. I also add an "ELSE IF" because I had lots of slices to work work with.
See working thingy here: https://codepen.io/mikeloucas/pen/qBarWoP
My version needs to have the URL and NAME LIST entered twice; it would be cool if someone knows how to do it once (one set instead of two) but maintain both functions of the "CLICK url" and "SPIN url", so I'm still open to advice.
I'd prefer one set over two. :-)

Why do progress events stop firing when I add 'false' to createjs.LoadQueue()?

OK, the docs are messy at best. I have huge issues fading in and out preloaded assets if I do not add 'false' to the instance of PreloadJS. But when I add it I completely lose the progress event ... what is it that's so deeply hidden in the docs, that I cannot find anything about this?
And has anyone got a complete example of HOW to actually and properly load an array (actually an object) of images without losing the progress event AND still have an asset that behaves as expected when adding it to the DOM and fade it in?
This was also posted in a question on GitHub.
The short answer is that loading with tags (setting the first param useXHR to false) doesn't support granular progress events because downloading images with tags doesn't give progress events in the browser.
You can still get progress events from the LoadQueue any time an image loads, but each image will just provide a single "complete" event.
#Lanny True for that part, but in my case I was also missing the 'true' in .getResult(), and the createObjectURL() for the image data:
…
var preloader = new createjs.LoadQueue();
…
…
function handleFileLoad ( e ) {
var item = e.item,
result = preloader.getResult(item.id, true),
blob_url = URL.createObjectURL( result );
…
So, that I was actually able to handle the image data as a blob … I couldn't find anything close to 'createObjectURL' in the docs. I guess that renders the docs 'not complete' at best …

Printing an image to a dye based application

I am learning about fluid dynamics (and Haxe) and have come across this awesome project and thought I would try to extend to it to help me learn. A demo of the original project in action can be seen here.
So far, I have created a side menu of items containing different shapes. When the user clicks on one of the shapes, then, clicks onto the canvas, the image selected should be imprinted onto the dye. The user will then move the mouse and explore the art etc.
To try and achieve this I did the following:
import js.html.webgl.RenderingContext;
function imageSelection(): Void{
document.querySelector('.myscrollbar1').addEventListener('click', function() {
// twilight image clicked
closeNav();
reset();
var image:js.html.ImageElement = cast document.querySelector('img[src="images/twilight.jpg"]');
gl.current_context.texSubImage2D(cast fluid.dyeRenderTarget.writeToTexture, 0, Math.round(mouse.x), Math.round(mouse.y), RenderingContext.RGB, RenderingContext.UNSIGNED_BYTE, image);
TWILIGHT = true;
});
After this call, inside the update function, I have the following:
override function update( dt:Float ){
time = haxe.Timer.stamp() - initTime;
performanceMonitor.recordFrameTime(dt);
//Smaller number creates a bigger ripple, was 0.016
dt = 0.090;//#!
//Physics
//interaction
updateDyeShader.isMouseDown.set(isMouseDown && lastMousePointKnown);
mouseForceShader.isMouseDown.set(isMouseDown && lastMousePointKnown);
//step physics
fluid.step(dt);
particles.flowVelocityField = fluid.velocityRenderTarget.readFromTexture;
if(renderParticlesEnabled){
particles.step(dt);
}
//Below handles the cycling of colours once the mouse is moved and then the image should be disrupted into the set dye colours.
}
However, although the project builds, I can't seem to get the image imprinted onto the canvas. I have checked the console log and I can see the following error:
WebGL: INVALID_ENUM: texSubImage2D: invalid texture target
Is it safe to assume that my cast for the first param is not allowed?
I have read that the texture target is the first parameter and INVALID_ENUM in particular means that one of the gl.XXX parameters are just flat out wrong for that particular function.
Looking through to the file writeToTexture is declared as so: public var writeToTexture (default, null):GLTexture;. WriteToTexture is a wrapper around a regular webgl handle.
I am using Haxe version 3.2.1 and using Snow to build the project. WriteToTexture is defined inside HaxeToolkit\haxe\lib\gltoolbox\git\gltoolbox\render
writeToTexture in gltoolbox is a GLTexture. With snow and snow_web, this is defined in snow.modules.opengl.GL as:
typedef GLTexture = js.html.webgl.Texture;
So we're simply dealing with a js.html.webgl.Texture here, or WebGLTexture in native JS.
Which means that yes, this is definitely not a valid value for texSubImage2D()'s target, which is specified to take one of the gl.TEXTURE_* constants.
A GLenum specifying the binding point (target) of the active texture.
From this description it's obvious that the parameter isn't actually for the texture itself - it merely gives some info on how the active texture should be used.
The question then becomes how the "active" texture can be set. bindTexture() can be used for this.

Possible to make a composite symbol?

When editing a vertex I would like to substitute the vertex symbol with SimpleMarkerSymbol and a TextSymbol but that appears to be impossible. Any suggestions on how I could do this? I want the appearance of dragging something like this (text + circle):
After taking some time to look at the API I've come to the conclusion it is impossible. Here is my workaround:
editor.on("vertex-move", args => {
let map = this.options.map;
let g = <Graphic>args.vertexinfo.graphic;
let startPoint = <Point>g.geometry;
let tx = args.transform;
let endPoint = map.toMap(map.toScreen(startPoint).offset(tx.dx, tx.dy));
// draw a 'cursor' as a hack to render text over the active vertex
if (!cursor) {
cursor = new Graphic(endPoint, new TextSymbol({text: "foo"}));
this.layer.add(cursor);
} else {
cursor.setGeometry(endPoint);
cursor.draw();
}
})
You could use a TextSymbol to create a point with font type having numbers inside the circle. Here is one place where you can find such font. http://www.fontspace.com/the-fontsite/combinumerals
Wont be exactly as shown in the image but close enough. Also some limitation it wont work with IE9 or lower (this is as per esri documentation, as I am using halo to get the white border).
Here is the working Jsbin : http://jsbin.com/hayirebiga/edit?html,output use point of multipoint
PS: I have converted the ttf to otf and then added the font as base64, which is optional. I did it as I could not add the ttf or otf to jsbin.
Well, Achieve this seems impossible so far however ArcGIS JS API provides a new Application/platform where you can generate single symbol online for your applications.
We can simply create all kind of symbols(Provide by ESRI) online and it gives you on the fly code which you just need to paste in your application.
This will help us to try different type of suitable symbols for the applications.
Application URL: https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/3/samples/playground/index.html
Hoping this will help you :)

Is there a way in deployd to map a collection to a different endpoint?

I have a collection called customer_devices and I can't change the name. Can I expose it via deployd as /devices ? How?
There are a few ways that I can think of. If you really just want to rename the collection, you can do so from the dashboard, as #thomasb mentioned in his answer.
Alternatively, you can create a "proxy" event resource devices and forward all queries to customer_devices. For example, in devices/get.js you would say
dpd.customer_devices.get(query, function(res, err) {
if (err) cancel(err);
setResult(res);
});
Update
Finally, here is a "hack" to redirect all requests from one resource path to a different path. This is poorly tested so use at your own risk. This requires that you set up your own server as explained here. Once you have that, you can modify the routing behaviour using this snippet:
server.on('listening', function() {
var customer_devices = server.router.resources.filter(function (res) {
return res.path === '/customer_devices';
})[0];
// Make a copy of the Object's prototype
var devices = Object.create(customer_devices);
// Shallow copy the properties
devices = extend(devices, customer_devices);
// Change the routing path
devices.path = "/devices";
// Add back to routing cache
server.router.resources.push(devices);
});
This will take your customer_devices resource, copy it, change the path, and re-insert it into the cached routing table. I tested it and it works, but I won't guarantee that it's safe or a good idea...
Can't you change the name via dashboard?
Mouseover your collection customer_devices
Click the down arrow
Select 'Rename'
Enter the new name and click 'Rename'

apply new layer to a slice of a volume webgl

i have two volumes (.nrrd) of different qualities. the user can browse through the layers. if a key is pressed
i want to load the slice of the volume with better quality.
my volume is similar to this one: lesson 10 xtk
i've found:
volume.children[2].children[0].children[0].texture.file = "http://path/to/file.ext";
but if i apply some kind of file (.jpg, .dcm) nothing happens.
is this the right approach to change the slice to go inside the children and change the texture?
or shall i load the selected slice seperate as an object and apply it to the "lower-quality-volume" somehow?
edit:
this is what i tried so far (i get errors with dcms but not with jpgs):
if (event.keyCode == 83) { // "s"-button
volume.children[2].children[0].children[0].texture.file = "http://localhost:3000/112.jpg";
volume.children[2].children[0].children[0].modified();
r.render();
}
edit2: this is whats in my r.onShowtime = function() {}
volume.children[2].children[0].texture.file = 'http://localhost:3000/112.jpg';
volume.children[2].children[0].visible = true; // to activate the first layer
volume.children[2].children[0].modified();
console.log(volume.children[2].children[0].visible +" "+ volume.children[2].children[0].texture.file);
it outputs "true hostname/112.jpg"
when i inspect the .jpg in firebug the header is ok but the answer is "null"
when i inspect console.log(volume.children[2].children[0]); with firebug
.texture.file is set to hostname/112.jpg
when i go to "network" the .jpg has been transfered successfully
please notice that 112.jpg and level.jpg are the same. the first one is getting loaded in r.onShowtime and the other one is loaded at a keypressed event.
EDIT 3: volume.children[2].children[0] is of the type "X.slice", isn't it?
here is my approach: jsFiddle
and this is my actual issue and still not working: jsFiddle
Mhh..
I think a call to object.modified() is missing in the file setter (and in others setters from inject classes). Let's see when Haehn will come if he wants to change something internaly, but for the moment could you try to call it by yourself ?
You can try to add after the modification of texture :
volume.children[2].children[0].children[0].modified();
And if it doesn't work, in addition :
renderer.render();
Edit :
It's strange, I did a similar code and it did something. Can you please try something like that with opening your javascript console (Firefox, Chrome,... has one) and tell me the error you get ?
renderer.onShowtime = {
for (var i=0 ; i< volume.children[2].children.length ; i++) {
volume.children[2].children[i].texture.file="myimage.jpeg";
volume.children[2].children[i].modified();
}
}
It is important you call it in the onShowtime, because before the volume is not loaded, and so slicesX, slicesY... don't exist.
Edit2 :
Hey,
Thanks to the informations you added I think I've got the point ! In the render() method of our renderer3D there is a test on texture._dirty flag, that you cannot change from outside the framework. In addition the 1st rendering with a texture make that flag false, and loading a new texture doesn't seem to set that flag back to true in the current XTK. So, I think, we have to add it in the loader.load(texture, object) method. I'll make an issue on Github and see what Haehn thinks of it !
