| 06:10.20 | brlcad | starseeker: not particularly |
| 06:10.34 | brlcad | it's worse in some places and worse in others |
| 06:11.39 | brlcad | the per-letter errors are pretty drastic |
| 06:14.20 | brlcad | you can see a nice comparison here, http://brlcad.org/tmp/compare.png |
| 06:15.29 | brlcad | overall, obviously darker but words like "weigh" and "when" there are noticably worse |
| 06:18.01 | brlcad | and you still have a vls memory leak in there |
| 06:28.04 | CIA-6 | BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r33408 10/brlcad/trunk/src/proc-db/human.c: Free the vls string in the help function. |
| 06:28.20 | starseeker | brlcad: Any suggestions for algorithms that can be used to enhance text? |
| 06:59.07 | starseeker | I'm trying various edge detection routines, but none will produce error-free results by the nature of the input data |
| 07:15.50 | starseeker | tries thresholding + Gaussian blur to coax faint pixels into the limelight... |

| 13:40.10 | brlcad | starseeker: for that data, probably a mix of localized fuzzy (i.e. magic wand) selection and color curve (mostly constract) enhancement |
| 13:55.55 | brlcad | oh nice, the smart shapen filter in PS does a pretty decent job by itself |
| 16:18.54 | DanielFalck | brlcad: is there any way to create 'pipes' with brlcad? I think there is something related to creating wires/pipes from reading the source, but I haven't seen the docs on it. thanks |
| 16:19.38 | DanielFalck | I want to be able to produce elbows that are tangent to straight pipes |

| 18:04.46 | brlcad | DanielFalck: yes, and it's even called the 'pipe' primitive ;) |
| 18:05.07 | brlcad | there's a mini-tutorial in the Principles of Effective Modeling doc on the website |
| 18:06.01 | csanyipal | Hi, again, a small problem with rytracing on Debian GNU/Linux Etch system with BRL-CAD version Release 7.14.1 |
| 18:08.31 | csanyipal | I have selected Underly option in Raytracing Control Panel and when click on Raytrace button I can't see the wireframe of the shapes2.r in the Lesson 4 in the tutorial Introduction_to_MGED.pdf (34 page). |
| 18:13.44 | brlcad | howdy csanyipal |
| 18:14.05 | brlcad | csanyipal: we were just talking about the underlay/overlay bug yesterday |
| 18:14.26 | brlcad | it's been there for a while, was just recently fixed in archer but not in mged yet |
| 18:14.45 | brlcad | csanyipal: Misc menu, turn on the Z option |
| 18:15.09 | brlcad | and maybe toggle lighting, it's dependent on which of those are on/off |
| 18:15.55 | csanyipal | ok, when I turn off Misc / Z option, I can see the green wireframe. Thanks! |
| 18:16.04 | brlcad | sure ;) |
| 18:31.26 | DanielFalck | brlcad: thanks- found the document and section on pipe |
| 19:35.33 | DanielFalck | brlcad: sorry for the next question: are there any examples showing actual use of pipe command with actual points and radius' given? the 'effective modelling' doc give theory, but I can't find any examples. |
| 19:35.37 | *** join/#brlcad elite01 (n=omg@unaffiliated/elite01) | |
| 19:36.04 | DanielFalck | using the gui, one seems to have no way of editing parameters, that I can see |
| 19:52.08 | DanielFalck | I'm using "put {p1} pipe V0 { 0 0 -1000 } O0 500 I0 125 R0 500 V1 { 0 0 1000 } O1 500 I1 12 |
| 19:52.08 | DanielFalck | 5 R1 500 |
| 19:52.08 | DanielFalck | " |
| 19:52.13 | DanielFalck | and it works |
| 19:52.26 | DanielFalck | but - is there a simpler way? via command line |
| 21:18.24 | brlcad | DanielFalck: parameters can generally be specified via the 'p' command |
| 21:19.11 | brlcad | you could use the 'in' command |
| 21:19.42 | brlcad | you could also create a pipe and then use the sed command to edit the pipe, and combinations of push "menu option" coupled with 'p' commands to add/set values |
| 21:33.46 | DanielFalck | brlcad: thank you |
