NomBot Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 This is similar to other plugins out there (since there are about 8 million of them on this site) Curtis' Dots, for one... but that one doesn't use path gradients. Anyway it's my first plugin using GDI+ (thanks to Red ochre for pointing me in that direction) and done entirely in CodeLab, my favorite 'plugin'. ...and not much to do with dot-matrix printers, if anyone remembers them... DotMatrix.zip (Found under Stylize) User Interface: Dot Diameter: size of the dots (very low diameters can produce tapestry-like effects)Background Color: fills the background, default black.Grad Percent: gradation amountLight Direction: drag the cross to direction light will come from. Use Path Gradient: use a path brush rather than a linear brush. The following controls apply only to the path brush:Highlight Width: width of the highlight areaHighlight Height: height of the highlight areaPoint: Sharpness of the highlightSpread: this affects the blend curveLight Distance: how far the light is from the canvas (no effect if light direction is in center) 9 Quote "No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream."

toe_head2001 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Good job. Any special reason you used "Grad Percent" in the UI, instead of "Gradation Percent"? It could confuse some people, as 'Grad' can be an abbreviation for a few things. Reminds me that I need to finish my Lite-Brite plugin I started many months ago. 1 Quote (September 25th, 2023) Sorry about any broken images in my posts. I am aware of the issue.
