Sine Wave Distort Plugin (ymd:100718)

[MadJik]

Sine Wave Distort Effect Plugin

 

What's this?

I think it will help for this problem...

  =>   

 

How does it works?

That uses the function sine to apply a horizontal or vertical shift like a simple or combined wave.

While moving, if the image leaves the area on a side then it reappears on the opposite side.

TIP: Enlarge the canvas with a transparent border to keep the image 'inside'...

 

 

Download the DLL

Plugin SinWaves.dll

Here is the DLL

 

The MadJik's All plugins package is available !

How to install

Close Paint.net

 

Classic version of Paint.net

Unzip and (re)place the DLL in your Effect folder usually: C:/Program Files/Paint.NET/Effects

 

Microsoft Store version of Paint.net

Unzip and (re)place the DLL in your Effect folder usually: /My Documents/paint.net App Files/Effects/

You have to adapt for your language My Documents

 

 

The User interface

This plugin is added to the menu Effects, submenu Distort.

 

Amplitude (-500,+500, dft 5)

__Sine function gives a result between -1 and 1. You could change this range with the amplitude. The waves could be flat (amount near 0) or high (big amount).

You could use negative values to invert the waves.

Horizontal periods (-500,+500, dft 0)

__A period for the function sine is the full "wave" curve going thru the values : 0,1,0,-1,0. You could choose the number of periods you need...

Vertical periods (-500,+500, dft 1)

__Same for the vertical periods. You could combine Horizontal & Vertical effects...

Angle of start (0,360, dft 0)

__Choosing the angle allows you to start somewhere in the curse of sine...

Anti-alias level (0,10, dft 2)

__It's more a local blur than Anti-aliasing. You choose the level (radius) here.

ofcourse now you need to add anti-aliasing

[RikkuBubbles]

I cant use it on my paint.net

[dawn]

Rikku, you're gonna get yelled at if you don't resize your avatar. (It should be no bigger than 100x100px I think.)

[Leif]

I cant use it on my paint.net

Works OK for me. Thanks MadJik. Great work.

RikkuBubbles resize your avater. It is to big.

[The_Lionhearted]

Oh Madjik, excellent. I've been hoping for something like this for a long time, and it could actually help me out a lot with a project I'm doing for a friend. Thanks!

[Mint]

You completely solved my problem, Madjik! Awesome plugin.

[Ash]

Very nice, Thanks again

[Mr Frojo]

I can really see myself using this a ton from here on out. Really wish it had antialising though, but besides that, its great.

[MadJik]

You could try this code in CodeLab, it's including anti-aliasing (it's some kind of blur in fact)... I need more time to create the DLL with 4 sliders...

int Amount1=500;      //[-9999,9999] Amplitude(/100)
int Amount2=000;      //[-9999,9999] Horizontal periods(/100)
int Amount3=100;      //[-9999,9999] Vertical periods(/100)

void Render(Surface dst, Surface src, Rectangle rect) 
{ 
 PdnRegion selectionRegion = EnvironmentParameters.GetSelection(src.Bounds); 
 int MaxX = dst.Width;
 int MaxY = dst.Height;
 int MidX = MaxX/2;
 int MidY = MaxY/2;
 double Radius = (double)Amount1 / 100.0; 
 double XCoef  = (double)Amount3 / 100.0;
 double YCoef  = (double)Amount2 / 100.0;

 // Variables for Anti-Aliasing 
 int aaLevel = 2; //Anti-Alias level (no slider!)
 int aaSamples = aaLevel * aaLevel + 1;
 PointF[] aaPoints = new PointF[aaSamples];

 // Init table for AA (don't ask me how it works)  
 for (int s = 0; s < aaSamples; ++s)
 {
   double x = (s * aaLevel) / (double)aaSamples;
   double y = s / (double)aaSamples;
   x -= (int)x;
   // RGSS + rotation to maximize AA quality
   aaPoints[s] = new PointF((float)x, (float)y);
 }

 double xk = 0;
 if ((Radius !=0) && (XCoef !=0)) xk = 2.0 * Math.PI / (MaxX / XCoef);
 double yk = 0;
 if ((Radius !=0) && (YCoef !=0)) yk = 2.0 * Math.PI / (MaxY / YCoef);

 for (int y = rect.Top; y < rect.Bottom; y++) 
 { 
   for (int x = rect.Left; x < rect.Right; x++) 
   { 
     if (aaLevel <=0)
     {
       double yreflect = (double)y;
       if ((Radius !=0) && (XCoef !=0)) yreflect += (double)((Radius * Math.Sin(x * xk)) % MaxY);
       int dy = (int)(0.5 + yreflect);
       if (dy < 0) dy += src.Height; 
       if (dy >= src.Height) dy -= src.Height; 

       double xreflect = (double)x;
       if ((Radius !=0) && (YCoef !=0)) xreflect += (double)((Radius * Math.Sin(y * yk)) % MaxX);
       int dx = (int)(0.5 + xreflect);
       if (dx < 0) dx += src.Width; 
       if (dx >= src.Width) dx -= src.Width; 

       dst[x, y] = src.GetBilinearSample(dx, dy);
     }
     else
     {
       int b = 0, g = 0, r = 0, a = 0;
       foreach (PointF pt in aaPoints)
       {
         double yreflect = (double)(pt.Y + y);
         if ((Radius !=0) && (XCoef !=0)) yreflect += (double)((Radius * Math.Sin(x * xk)) % MaxY);
         int dy = (int)(0.5 + yreflect);
         if (dy < 0) dy += src.Height; 
         if (dy >= src.Height) dy -= src.Height; 

         double xreflect = (double)(pt.X + x);
         if ((Radius !=0) && (YCoef !=0)) xreflect += (double)((Radius * Math.Sin(y * yk)) % MaxX);
         int dx = (int)(0.5 + xreflect);
         if (dx < 0) dx += src.Width; 
         if (dx >= src.Width) dx -= src.Width; 

         ColorBgra sample = src.GetBilinearSampleWrapped(dx, dy);

         b += sample.B;
         g += sample.G;
         r += sample.R;
         a += sample.A;
       }
       dst[x, y] = ColorBgra.FromBgra((byte)(b / aaSamples), (byte)(g / aaSamples), (byte)(r / aaSamples), (byte)(a / aaSamples));
     }
   } 
 } 
}

Look at the first post of this topic for the lastest version of the Sine Waves plugin.

Bug report:

The OK and Cancel button are inverted.

The default PdN dialog layout is :

[OK] [Cancel]

In this Plugin we have:

[Reset All] [Cancel] [OK]

[Ash]

Even better

Thanks!

It's not only good for making flags wave.

It is good for many other things, like Patterns for one.

I'm gonna have a lot of fun playing with this plugin

[pyrochild]

Jeez MadJik, you just keep popping out these great plugins don't you? Are you a secret military AI robot?

[spike 121]

@dawn a few posts back

avatars are supposed to be no more than 100 wide, but i see people with more than that, as long as its not an excessive size difference, im not sure anybody cares

[Ash]

Jeez MadJik, you just keep popping out these great plugins don't you? Are you a secret military AI robot?

Yeah, both of you are

Default fixed...TY for reporting!

 

@Ash: Yes, a lot of possibilities...

[Ash]

That is cool

How do you do that?

[MadJik]

That is cool

How do you do that?

1.Gradient 30-60° from corner to corner.

2.Sine Waves: Ampl=max, Hor=+/-0.5, Ver=+/-0.5.

3.Duplcate, F4, Blend mode=Negation

4.Flip layer horizontal

5.Merge down (flip vertical for tests)

6.Rect2polar...

Various results...

[Ash]

Ahhh......Rect2polar...

Thats what I needed to know

Thanks!

Ya madjik u do keep coming out with some gret plugins. Keep up the good work.

[Scyphrex]

Yes a good package of plugins this will come in handy. Ty Madjik.

[usedHONDA]

I've never saw this plugin earlier! Cool.

[R3VENGE]

madjik your plugins are awsome!!
