Variable is not build to be a dynamic UI, but can use a drawBot package to share your code with others and build your own vanilla interface -> https://drawbot.com/content/drawBotApp/drawBotPackage.html

thanks @monomonnik that is correct

mmm see https://github.com/typemytype/drawbot/issues/391

open an issue to discus it further

thanks

why trying to find the pointSize? just scale everything with textWidth/boxWidth

you can not copy that file while the app is open, that pref file is always written when the app closes and will not sync when you adjust it

DrawBot has not such a feature... however you can install DrawBot as a module and use it externally building the pdf and previewing it elsewhere

let use know if you find a solution!

tried it a long time ago... didnt got it to work for some reason, so support for trim and bleed is set on hold:

https://github.com/typemytype/drawbot/pull/304

if you got any idea to get it to work with quartz pdf context, let me know

hehe, totally forgot about that one... but I prefer the solution with pyqrcode as it provides a list 0/1

in the pip installer: pyqrcode --no-deps

import pyqrcode

blockSize = 10

qr = pyqrcode.create('http://www.drawbot.com/')

for x, row in enumerate(qr.code):
    for y, bit in enumerate(row):
        if bit:
            rect(x * blockSize, y * blockSize, blockSize, blockSize)
        
print(qr.code)

no idea... but the image is indeed blurry. A quick search for CoreImage filter CIQRCodeGenerator + blurry results in lots of options but none of them apply to DrawBot.

I would look at some python packages like https://github.com/mnooner256/pyqrcode to build the QR data and draw it with DrawBot, without round tripping to a png or image

good luck!
