Re: Updating a Form after changing pixel values

by sducasseatwork＠mailo.com

Hi Mikael I do not know the answer so I tried to find it. Indeed the superclass>>updatePresenter is empty :( Let us see what esteban will reply. Now I tried to check the morphic back end. Now writing directly on the canvas this way does not look the right way. Did you try with SpMorphPresenter or SpRoassalPresenter because you have access to the cairo canvas. While browsing the code of the SpMorphicROassalAdapter I saw widget sessionChanged. SpAbstractMorphicAdapter I saw changed. changed ^ self widgetDo: [ :w | w changed ] I also saw in SpAbstractAdapter isRedrawable so I wonder if it should not be true on the Adapter corresponding to the SpImagePresenter (if any) BTW the SpMorphicAthensAdapter defines a method redraw (Athens is the cairo wrapper used also in Roassal) Reading the code of SpMorphicImageAdapter >> buildWidget | alphaImage | alphaImage := AlphaImageMorph new. alphaImage model: self. alphaImage getImageSelector: #getImage; vResizing: #spaceFill; hResizing: #spaceFill; layout: self layoutValue; dragEnabled: self dragEnabled; dropEnabled: self dropEnabled; setBalloonText: self help; update: #getImage. self model whenImageChangeDo: [ alphaImage image: (self getImage ifNil: [ Form extent: 1 @ 1 depth: 32 ]) ]; whenAutoScaleChangeDo: [ widget layout: self layoutValue ]. ^ alphaImage It feels like we should reassign the image: Did you try something like > updatePresenter > > self image: self image? > On 7 Mar 2025, at 18:11, Mikael Svane <mikael.svane(a)fridhem.org> wrote: > > I have a Form where I change pixel colours using Form>>pixelValueAt:put:.

Re: Updating a Form after changing pixel values

by Renaud de Villemeur

Hi Mikael If my understanding is correct, you're using SpImagePresenter to display a Form.Â You then have made some changes toÂ the Form and you want to show its new face.Â Why don't you set the image again in your presenter ? Something likeÂ `image image: yourUpdatedForm`. You can even update the Form of your presenter directly like: `image image: (image image pixelValueAt: 10@10 put: (image imageÂ pixelValueFor: Color red))` image being an instance of SpImagePresenter.

Updating a Form after changing pixel values

by Mikael Svane

I have a Form where I change pixel colours using Form>>pixelValueAt:put:. The Form exists inside an SpImagePresenter. After having changed the pixels, I want to redraw the Form in an #updatePresenters method to show the changes, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do this. If I inspect the Form it is clear that the pixels have been changed, so the problem is in the #updatePresenters mwthod. I have tried different variations on this theme without success: updatePresenter | canvas | "Get the canvas of the Form:" canvas := imagePresenter image form getCanvas. adapter widget drawSubmorphsOn: canvas Any suggestions would be very welcome. Kind regards, Mikael

Re: Converting global coordinates from a mouse event

by Mikael Svane

Hi Renaud, Yes, I use Spec with the Morphic graphical library and with the calculation that you described, I got the correct answer for the coordinates within the Morph representing the image (Form). Because I was using an autoscaling image, I had then to do one more step by scaling the local coordinates according to the scale of the image, but that was very easy. Thanks!

In your presenter: - `anEvent position` will give you the event position in the global world coordinate. - `self adapter widget position.` will give you the top left corner underlying Morph position in the global world coordinate. `anEvent position - self adapter widget position` should give you the position you're looking for.

Re: Converting global coordinates from a mouse event

by Mikael Svane

Thanks, but unfortunately that doesnât work. The object stored in the image variable is an ImagePresenter, not a Morph, so it doesnât understand globalPointToLocal:. However, the ImagePresenter contains an adapter (an SpMorphicBoxAdapter) which has a variable called widget containing an AlphaImageMorph which must represent the image. But if I send the #globalPointToLocal: message to the AlphaImageMorph instance it just returns the same point that it was given as argument. This must be because Morph>>globalPointToLocal: is implemented as: Morph>>globalPointToLocal: aPoint ^self point: aPoint from: nil and: Morph>>point: aPoint from: aReferenceMorph owner ifNil: [^ aPoint]. ^ (owner transformFrom: aReferenceMorph) globalPointToLocal: aPoint Since these definitions are the only one in any of the Morph subclasses, aReferenceMorph will always be nil for all Morphs and Morph>>point: aPoint from: aReferenceMorph (and Morph>>globalPointToLocal:) will always return the same point that it was given as argument. This seems a bit strange. After some more research, I found a similar question from 2012 where the #globalPointToLocal: method was apparently working: http://forum.world.st/Mouse-handler-on-a-morph-td4603302.html So at the moment I am not sure if #globalPointToLocal: is the intended way of transforming coordinates, perhaps with a bug, or if there is new way of transforming coordinates and this is just old code that has not been removed from the image. At first, I would have guessed that coordinate transformation should have been handled by the different Layouts used, but this doesnât seem to be the case. Any further suggestions are very welcome!
