The hint with __file__ was just what I needed and got me on the right track. Using os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'resource', 'font.otf') within the main.py now gives me the ability to pull content from the resource directory. Perfect! Thank you so much @frederik, as always

@eduairet It was fun. It looks like there will be more challenges ahead.

@frederik thank you very much! I'll implement this way

and the resulting image

@frederik OMG it works now!!! thank you very much!!!! Happy holidays!!!

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

This is an old post but this might help someone looking for iteration on gifs, and maybe anyone can tell an interesting fact about it. I've been working with gifs generated via Photoshop and Media Encoder and they crash after the second frame. What has worked for me to fix this problem is to open the gif file with the Mac OS Preview app and rewrite the file, even though this solved my problem it could be great to know if you had a similar experience and how you solved it.

@frederik thank you It worked great now: x, y = 500, 500 resolutions = [72, 18] mfont = '/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Fonts/SansNom-Regular.otf' installFont(mfont) font(mfont) print(listFontGlyphNames()) letters = ['n', 'E'] def pixelar(tx, t, al=True): newPage(x, y) path = BezierPath() path.text(tx, fontSize=500, font=mfont) coords = path.bounds() translate((x - (coords[0] + coords[2])) * 0.5, (y - (coords[1] + coords[3])) * 0.5) drawPath(path) saveImage('~/Desktop/hint_{0}_{1}_aal_{2}.png'.format(tx, t, str(al).lower()), imageResolution=int(t), antiAliasing = al) newDrawing() for letter in letters: for resolution in resolutions: pixelar(letter, resolution, False) pixelar(letter, resolution)

@jo Thank you, I was disconnected from Drawbot so I haven't seen this, I'll try your suggestions on the code

@gferreira great!!!! thank you very much.

@gferreira Thank you! I've used this in the following application but I noticed that even though I used hyphenation=False the words break in the middle so, I don't need it to break for this exercise but it's something I can't figure out: myVarFont = '/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Fonts/AstripeVariableGX.ttf' variations = listFontVariations(myVarFont) print(variations) axis1 = list(variations.keys())[0] minH = variations[axis1]['minValue'] maxH = variations[axis1]['maxValue'] axis2 = list(variations.keys())[1] minV = variations[axis2]['minValue'] maxV = variations[axis2]['maxValue'] #Words def textPage(*words, o=0, size='Tabloid', positive=True, h=True, txt=FormattedString(), myFont=myVarFont, fSize=30, lHeight=23.5): def canvas(): newPage(size) if positive is True: fill(1) if positive is False: fill(0) rect(o, o, width(), height()) canvas() txt.font( installFont(myFont) ) txt.fontSize(fSize) txt.openTypeFeatures(calt=True) txt.lineHeight(lHeight) hyphenation(False) lineLength = 0 textLength = (width()*height())/(lHeight) #print(textLength) while txt.size()[0] < textLength: for word in words: if lineLength % 350 == 0: txt.append('\n' + word, fontVariations={axis1:minH, axis2:minV}) else: txt.append(word, fontVariations={axis1:minH, axis2:minV}) lineLength += textSize(word)[0] #print(lineLength) textBox(txt, ( o, o, width(), height() )) #print(txt.size()[0]) textPage('PIBA', '2020', 'LIDERA') saveImage('~/Desktop/PIBA_2020_CORBATA.pdf') This is what I need from the image: And this is what I don't understand: By the way: The previous exercise worked this way: import os import unicodedata def strip_accents(text): try: text = unicode(text, 'utf-8') except NameError: # unicode is a default on python 3 pass text = unicodedata.normalize('NFD', text)\ .encode('ascii', 'ignore')\ .decode("utf-8") return str(text) class Canvas: def __init__(self, w, h, o = 0, bleed = 0): self.w = w self.h = h self.o = o self.bleed = bleed if self.bleed <= 0: newPage(self.w, self.h) else: newPage(self.w + self.bleed * 2, self.h + self.bleed * 2) translate(self.bleed, self.bleed) def color(self, r = 255, g = 255, b = 255, a = 100): self.r = r / 255 self.g = g / 255 self.b = b / 255 self.a = a / 100 return fill(self.r, self.g, self.b, self.a) def bg_stroke(self, r, g, b, a, sw): self.r, self.g, self.b, self.a = color_c(r, g, b, a) self.sw = sw stroke(self.r, self.g, self.b, self.a) strokeWidth(self.sw) fill(None) def grid(self, cols, rows, gutter, mTop, mBottom, mLeft, mRight, view=True): if view == True: self.cols = cols self.rows = rows self.gutter = gutter self.mTop = mTop -

Hello @frederik ! Thank you! it works for me May I add those few lines found on this other tutorial about "EaseInOut" function. def easeInOut(factor): assert 0 <= factor <= 1 return (1 - cos(factor * pi)) / 2 It will add a new graph with easeInOut. It is working well with your previous lines. Thank you for your help ! Be safe.

@gferreira wow, this is huge!!! thank you again

@gferreira thanks, it worked, I'm coming with some new exercises. Cheers.

@gferreira said in Grid: w = (width() - gutter * (cols + 1)) / cols h = (height() - gutter * (rows + 1)) / rows Thank you very much, it worked way much better, I also tried to add a margin feature that worked well so now I can design over the grid size(1000, 1000) cols = 3 rows = 3 gutter = 12 #Margin mTop = 10 - gutter mBottom = 20 - gutter mLeft = 10 - gutter mRight = 10 - gutter w = (width() - gutter * (cols + 1)) / cols - ((mRight + mLeft) / cols) h = (height() - gutter * (rows + 1)) / rows - ((mTop + mBottom) / rows) fill(None) strokeWidth(1) stroke(0, 1, 1) for col in range(cols): for row in range(rows): x = gutter + col * (w + gutter) y = gutter + row * (h + gutter) rect(x + mLeft, y + mBottom, w, h)
