Applet Tutorials: Flag
 
Flag applet

This applet visualises a flag waving in a windy condition. It currently supports 34 nation flags.

[For more technical information about the available parameters, click here.]


Most parameters are self-explanatory and you can always see brief description of each parameter by moving the mouse pointer over the wizard.

First of all, define the applet size and its resolution "Width", "Height", and "Resolution". Resolution works as a stretcher value for the internally calculated image. If you want high quality result, always set this to one.

The background colour can be defined using an intuitive Windows default colour palette.

Then you decide if textscroll function is enabled by checking "Enable textscroll" box.

"Pixdensity" parameter relates to the render of a flag like other parameters below. It in fact decides the distance in pixel between plotted points of a flag.

Choose your desired nation flag from the list. Currently, the applet supports 34 nations.

1 Italy
2 Spain
3 France
4 Ireland
5 Austria
6 Germany
7 Netherlands
8 Belgium
9 Luxembourg
10 Sweden
11 Norway
12 Iceland

13 Greenland
14 Denmark
15 Finland
16 Poland
17 Hungary
18 Switzerland
19 South Africa
20 Russia
21 Japan
22 Israel
23 Greece
24 USA
25 Canada
26 Australia
27 New Zealand
28 United Kingdom
29 Argentina
30 Peru'
31 Venezuela
32 Mexico
33 Brazil
34 Colombia

Next, you select render type from the "Pattern" list. We have provided 8 different types:

1 = small dots
2 = double dots
3 = stars
4 = stars with centre hole
5 = triangles
6 = triple dots
7 = triple dots dithered 1
8 = triple dots dithered 2

Once you have chosen the render type, next you configure the rest of the three parameters which affect how the flag waves.

"Wind" -- wind intensity; from 0 (no wind) to 8 (typhoon)
"Curve" - curve level of waving from 1 to 5 (biggest).
"Speed"- speed of waving.

Although I explained "Speed" parameter was the speed of waving of the flag, it's not really precise. All three parameters interact one after another and the result is always rather complex. So, you need to experiment with these values by yourself and find the most appropriate combination for your desired effect.


We have only discussed about the voxel specific parameters. For generic parameters, please read wizard section.

Proceed to the textscroll menu if you have checked the textscroll box; otherwise go to the expert menu.
