GEORGE : tv_imageGetBound layerID iPosition

[Mads Juul]

I woulld like a George Command wich could return the bounding box of an given image of a given layer in the current clip
So if I had a drawing like this:

tv_imageGetBound00000.png (55.57 KiB) Viewed 20114 times

And a george script like this

Code: Select all

tv_imageGetBound layerID iPosition
bound = result // Returns 131 115 379 455 with this image
tv_rect bound

Would produce his result

If I had a blue pen as selected tool

tv_SelectRect Bound

Is there A George Command like this?
I dont think it is possible to manipulate the Selection with George. Or?

[Elodie]

No, I don't think so, that's why I am about to todolist all the content of this conversation ^^

Until then here's a George version you can adapt...

Code: Select all

// Version .02 - May 14, 2014 - Draw and undraw bounding box around drawing

Param none

tv_GetActiveTool
OriginalTool = result							// store tool
parse result ToolType d							// get tool type

IF CMP(ToolType,"tv_restorebrush")
	tv_BrushToClipboard								// store CutBrush
END
tv_GetAPen
APen = result									// store APen color
tv_GetWidth
Width = result									// get project dimensions
tv_GetHeight
Height = result

tv_UndoOpenStack								// suspend undo stack
tv_BrushCut 0 0 Width Height 0					// grab a copy of the current image

tv_BrushRestore OptimizeSource 1				// get pixels' bounding box


tv_GetActiveTool								// get info on the CutBrush from the current image
parse result d d d d Width1 d Height1 d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d origineX origineY d

tv_setAPen 200 0 0								// set APen to red

x1 = origineX - 1									// get upper left X corner of CutBrush within project
y1 = origineY - 1									// get upper left Y corner of CutBrush within project
x2 = origineX + Width1							// calculate lower right X corner of CutBrush within project
y2 = origineY + Height1							// calculate lower right Y corner of CutBrush within project

tv_Propelling RESET 1							// select single pixel tool

tv_Rect x1 y1 x2 y2								// draw red bounding box rectangle

tv_WaitButton 1									// wait for mouse LMB down click

IF CMP(ToolType,"tv_restorebrush")
	tv_BrushFromClipboard						// retrieve original CutBrush

Yes thank. But I made my own script like that a couple of yars ago. But it is slow and there is problems attached with it. If i got a custombrush before i run the script, how to getcit back after. For instance. And I cant call it on another instance on another layer. What if I wanted to find the imagebound on an entire layer? Then it gets slow. But thankt you anyways svend. Maybe your script is better than mine I will look into it. But i still look forward to the george sunction
