Geometric Art Brush

Postby mrange » 07 Mar 2020, 11:52

Was messing around brushes to generate geometric art. Thought it was good enough to share:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '

cfg{
name="Geo Art";
renderingTime = 20 ;
}

perPrim {
float size = 400.0;
{
id = 2 ;
uiMin = 0.0 ;
uiTab = "shape" ;
uiFormat = pixel ;
uiName = "size" ;
}
float offc = 1.0;
{
id = 3 ;
uiMin = 0.0 ;

uiTab = "shape" ;
uiFormat = percent ;
uiName = "offset from center" ;
}
float off = 0.15;
{

uiMax = 1.0 ;
uiTab = "shape" ;
uiFormat = percent ;
uiName = "height offset" ;
}
float width = 1.0;
{

}
float reps = 11;
{

}
float fuzzy = 1.0;
{

dmin = abs(dmin) - i.width;
// dmin = abs(dmin) - i.width*0.5;

}

void rot(inout float2 p, float a) {
float c = cos(a);
float s = sin(a);
p = float2(c*p.x + s*p.y, -s*p.x + c*p.y);
}

float df_(idatas i, float2 p) {

float df(idatas i, float2 p) {

float ratio = tau/float(rep);

rot(ip, j*ratio);

float4 f = i.color;

float d = df(i, p);

float4 col = lerp(f, b, smoothstep(-i.fuzzy, i.fuzzy, d));

This one produce something ( excellent ).
My advise for the futur is to take into account the unit size of the Shape. Then the result will ne be dependent of the current zoom when drawing..
