Problem with partial upd .. function, please help.

Jack over 4 years ago

Hello.

I'm sorry to start another thread for OnPartialUpdate.

I know there is a lot on the forum, but I have not found a solution and an example that would solve my problem.

I will try to describe here what I need to call regularly via this function.

I have five slashes that I created in the font maker.

These slashes appear to me instead of seconds, ie 1 slash = first second.

It is like
"Knight Rider Car" reads slashes from left to right in seconds.

The problem is that when I do dc.setClip at the bottom of the screen for slash size, width, height, I get to total time fast.

I would ask someone who could help me with this feature.

The best example of how to proceed.

Here's what I'm trying to do in OnPartialUpdate.

I do dcClearClip in OnUpdate...

Thank you

function onPartialUpdate(dc){
		sleepMode = true;

		
		
		dc.setClip(20, 175, 25, 20);
        dc.setColor(Graphics.COLOR_BLUE, Graphics.COLOR_TRANSPARENT);
        dc.drawText(20, 175, $.fontIcon_seconds, $.ICON_SECONDS, Gfx.TEXT_JUSTIFY_CENTER);
    	 
 
    	
        }
         }

So if you know how to write app adoption my code should be very easy and you should know what to do

- fill arrays mColors and mDrawX

- put corect arguments in
-- dc.setClip(...)
-- dc.drawText()

- delete…

I'm sorry, I noticed I gave you "VoteDown" by mistake.

I did this over the phone when I wanted to click the Reply button.

Of course, you deserve credit for your help.

but I still don't know how to do that function ...

THere's even a sample in that thread.

What I actually have a problem with is this.

I have a constant:

mColors = [ Gfx.COLOR_BLUE, Gfx.COLOR_RED, Gfx.COLOR_BLUE, Gfx.COLOR_RED, Gfx.COLOR_BLUE, Gfx.COLOR_RED,],
mClip_X = [23, 35, 47, 59, 71, null, 71, 59, 47, 35, 23];

I kept trying

make:

dc.setClip (mClip_X [0], mClip_X [1], mClip_X [2], mClip_X [3] -mClip_X [4]);

but it doesn't work and i don't know how to delegate properly:

dc.drawText (23, 175, $ .fontSeconds, $ .ICON_SECONDS, Graphics.TEXT_JUSTIFY_CENTER);

I know that the code should include:

dc.setClip (20, 175, 26, 20);

but I can't write it and put it together with a font and a constant for drawing multiple clips...

I can't give myself advice here...

Please someone help.

Thank you

I assume,your

- slash has 25x30

- left X position the most left slash is 25 (justification to left)

class X_view

{

const mColors =
               [
                   GRA.COLOR_BLUE,
                   GRA.COLOR_RED,
                   GRA.COLOR_BLUE,
                   GRA.COLOR_RED,
                   GRA.COLOR_BLUE,
                   GRA.COLOR_RED,
               ],
           mDrawX =
               [
                    25,
                    50,
                   75,
                   100,
                   125,
                   null,
                   125,
                   100,
                   75,
                    50,
                    25
               ];

......

function onPartialUpdate(dc)
{

    var   sec = SYS.getClockTime().sec;

                if(sec % 6)
                {
                     dc.setColor(mColors[(sec / 6) % 2], -1);
                    sec = (sec % 12) - 1;
                    dc.setClip(mDrawX[sec ], 160, 25, 30);
                   dc.drawText(mDrawX[sec ], 175, $.fontSeconds, $.ICON_SECONDS,6);
                }
}

good day.

My slash is 26x33, but I've already adjusted that.

I don't even know how I can thank you.

You helped me a lot and I really appreciate you as a programmer.

Thank you

I still wanted to make the code as one for normal mode.

This is the part of the code that keeps my slash in color:

Is it possible to add it to this code somehow so that I can use a simpler method for Update and OnPartialUpdate?

_psx_ over 4 years ago in reply to Jack

btw I've fogto to add clearClip() in my code

   if(sec % 6)
                {
                     dc.setColor(mColors[(sec / 6) % 2], -1);
                    sec = (sec % 12) - 1;
                    dc.setClip(mDrawX[sec ], 160, 25, 30);
                   dc.drawText(mDrawX[sec ], 175, $.fontSeconds, $.ICON_SECONDS,6);
                    dc.clearClip(); //<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
                }

function DrawSlash(dc, sec)
{
                if(sec % 6)
                {
                     dc.setColor(mColors[(sec / 6) % 2], -1);
                    sec = (sec % 12) - 1;
                    dc.setClip(mDrawX[sec ], 160, 25, 30);
                   dc.drawText(mDrawX[sec ], 175, $.fontSeconds, $.ICON_SECONDS,6);
                    dc.clearClip();
                }
}

function onPartialUpdate(dc)
{

DrawSlash(dc, SYS.getClockTime().sec);

}

function onUpdate(dc)
{

var sec_now = SYS.getClockTime().sec;

WRITE ALGORITHM TO call DrawSlash(dc, ...).; for all slashes (sec_now, sec_now -1, ....) and remember there is no 2-5=-3 second :)

}

Great, so it retains the color of the slash, as seen in my video?

Last questions:

1) how can I move the slashes slightly to the LEFT SIDE?

Resolved, parameter adjustment:

mDrawX ;)

2) Why do I see a white square below the font when resetting?

Thank you
