    @User I have the parts to build a self balancing robot coming in. I believe I'm going to beef it up by tearing apart of a hoverboard and making use of its motors and batteries.

    It is a shader approach, it's simple in that it is only triangles so the approach works for any gpu implementation, with little effort, you just need to pass the triangle data efficiently.
  • o
    Likely you need to do some experiments with mobile to see if such a solution can be used and if drawing to framebuffer is enough. Largely heaps/ceramic will help with that type of stuff.

    I can certainly create a basic test case and tweak the line end styles. I can't be sure if a specific shader would be better, because ofcourse my approach allows use for borders etc.. and not even needing straight lines.

    @User From what I recall when I was playing with your samples and such a while back, your approach would probably be a good choice.

    @User Ive been messing around and trying to jog my memory, to avoid having to ask, but.... i cannot seem to remember and I know that its something simple I am forgetting that is preventing this from working for the custom component for video.
  • b
    you mean that you arent using the viedo anywhere? ie, your app is just:
  • b
    Copy code
    haxe
    public static function main() {
        var app = new HaxeUIApp();

        app.ready(function() {
            var video = new Video();
            app.start();
        });
    }
  • b
    (unless im missing something?)
  • b
    you'll have to add the 
    Video
    somewhere... for example: 
    app.addComponent(...)
    which is just an alias for 
    Screen.instance.addComponent
    - or you could use the video as a component is some larger app / layout...
  • b
    am i understanding correctly? or missing something? If you question is "why doesnt my video appear" then the answer is because you havent "added" it anywhere
  • f
    talk about a massive brain fart.... i'll blame it on age... thank you very much.
  • b
    heh heh, no worries... i spent like 10 mins the other day wondering why 
    if (x != 1 *AND* y != 1)
    wasnt working 🤦
  • f
    Hows your day been?
  • b
    well, my day is just staring really... this month has been a LONG month... and future months likely to be longer... lots and lots of work, some new clients, some potentially new clients... so work feels constant at the moment - context switching all the time recently it feels. Not that im complaining, id rather have too much work than not enough
  • f
    Too much is definately better than too little. Thats good to hear.
  • b
    yeah, one of my new clients (well, i think we'll end up being partners - https://clintex.io/) got dev grant from these guys: https://dfinity.org/ - which ill be getting, so lots of new areas there (for me)... and some old ones, which is good
  • f
    Sweet
  • b
    yeah, could be "blockchain buzz"... but the grant has been approved, so thats something
  • f
    Blockchain Singularity looks like something that would interest me, i'll do see reading on their website
  • b
    yeah, clintex is pretty interesting actually, right up my alley (ie, medical stuff)
  • f
    Clintex looks like a good company. I like what I see on the site.
  • f
    Hopefully that works out great for you.
  • b
    👍 - will start running out of hours in the day at some point 😄
  • f
    lol
  • f
    Have your days started running together yet?
  • f
    To give you an idea of what i'm currently doing with haxeui.... i'm taking the website i had started putting together on my server and converting it over to haxe/haxeui, so i can utilize haxe/haxeui for my robotics toolbox. I pointed my old domain holt-technology.com to my home server. Will update it to the new domain name in a few days. But the theme/appearance of the current website along with the animated background is what i'm working on achieving with haxeui at the moment, and tossing around some ideas for the robotics control screen at the same time. I think it can be done with a custom theme created for the buttons and such. Or through css.
  • b
    heh, neat
  • b
    but that website isnt a haxeui app though, is it?
