TextEdition is updated (again)!

I just commited some improvements I made for my text boxes library! I added the management of some multi-keys characters, so now you can write special characters like ‘â’, ‘ö’, ‘ñ’… I know English people just don’t care about it (^^) but French people really need those characters! And German people too, you’re welcome. But, hem, I’m sorry for Chinese people (and everyone with a non-Latin alphabet…) ; for now, this does not work for you. You should have invented the keyboard first. On the other hand, I also made some slight improvements and corrected a potential deadlock issue I just discovered.

Don’t hesitate! 🙂

TextEdition is updated!

My library for the creation of text boxes, called “TextEdition”, received a major update: the library is now written for the SDL 2.0! Finally… For now, this is just a mere translation, but I intend to optimize the performances soon, by using the new possibilities of the SDL 2.0.

The major change is that all text boxes are now transparent, because the SDL 2.0 handles the RGBA blits natively. And, unfortunately, the handling of the multi-keys characters (such as ä, ô, ñ…) is gone, because the SDL 2.0 does not support them. This is a little bit silly: the text API of the SDL 2.0 was made in order to handle this kind of characters, but for an unknown reason, this does not fully work. It keeps interpreting ñ as ~n… I’m still investigating!

This version is the version 0.17, and I isolated the previous one (0.16) in another development branch to keep it available to users of the SDL 1.2. However, this branch will probably receive no further development, except maybe some small corrections. I suggest you to use the SDL 2.0 anyway!

Test and give feedback!

The OCR Project is updated!

Wow, it’s been a long time since I posted something. I actually have a lot of work (incredible, I’m supposed to be an Erasmus student!). Anyway, I worked recently on the OCR Project, in order to add some functionalities! Now you can search a word in the letters grid. Because I was tired to try to check manually the results…

You can find the project here, it didn’t move: https://ikturm.wordpress.com/projects-2/current-projects/the-ocr-project/

Try and comment! 🙂

Equaminator is now online!

If you’re mathematician, you will enjoy this new project. Equaminator is now online on IKTurm! This is a software which is able to draw, manipulate and analyse mathematical curves from mathemical expressions. And there are a lot of features, like integral calculus or curves in polar coordinates!

You will find the software here: https://ikturm.wordpress.com/projects-2/old-projects/equaminator/

Don’t hesitate to give it a try, and don’t forget to comment!

QLecteur is now online!

Ok everybody, now you can play music and videos with one of my projects. QLecteur was just uploaded to IKTurm! With this little software you will be able to play media, to create playlists, to listen to radio, and so on! I even created a Windows installer, so you cannot say it’s too complicated.

You will find the project here: https://ikturm.wordpress.com/projects-2/old-projects/qlecteur/

Try and commeeeeeent!
