Preview picture by Satyr 14 years ago

I'm sure this must've been discussed before, but I feel it must be brought to attention!

Is is possible to not invert the preview picture? It's extremely difficult to visualize what the bracelet will look like when the preview is upside down. Please fix!

Well, I've thought about it a few times but I've never done anything about it. I will write it down on my to-do list! Thank you, Satyr.

RE: Preview picture by Satyr 14 years ago

No problem. Just curious though, why exactly is it inverted?

RE: Preview picture by Stefan (moderator) 14 years ago

It just became like that when I implemented it. Without thinking of any options, I made the knot printing order from top to bottom, left to right, and the colours were obtained by reading the pattern from left to right. Standard in my point of view. It should be right to left to match a 90 degree counterclockwise tilted pattern.

Now it should be oriented the right way. Thanks again, Satyr!

A while ago I tried one of the patterns and my bracelet turned out slightly different than what the generator showed. The only difference was the colors it used and the colors that the bracelet actually turned out to be. I don't think I did anything wrong. I uploaded a picture to the pattern. #276. Although now the generated picture is different and so are the directions. The bottom is blacked out, and I don't know why.

Stefan... I do a little programing (in C#). If you wish, I could have a look at the source code and make some changes. I am not sure, if i will be able to fix it, but I think it is worth a try. I promise, I will not steal your code.

RE: Preview picture by Stefan (moderator) 14 years ago

It's ok Zolo, I will fix it myself once I have time for it. I never give out my source code, not even to my best friends....

I tried to reverse the preview picture (back to normal) before, but it resulted in a bug while making odd-thread bracelets. I'm on my way :)
