What's New?
-
Dynamic Motion v2.01 (06/23/07)
-
Fixes:
- Vector Table - The delta resulting from the length difference between window and basin length--which is used to determine vector movement--was being carried over to actual XOR comparisons such that an offset would occur equal to the delta value.
-
Dynamic Motion v2.00 (03/08/07)
-
Additions:
- Search Frame controls - "Order" combobox that sorts entries in either ascending or descending order. "Show" combobox which limits which entries in the search are displayed--can be one of either "All", "Black", "White", "Black Imaginary", or "White Imaginary".
- Motion Frame controls - Label counters for Delay, Width, and Height sliders.
- Key Feature ~Display Theme & Code Restructuring - Applet theme modernized and reorganized. Underlining code formated to use a stronger class hierarchy and to allow for quicker modifications in the future.
-
Changes:
- Configuration Frame - Integrated file loading directly into the panel. Length, Basin, Paint and Window Size controls reformated for improved ease-of-use.
- Comparison Frame - Reformated controls. Subset selection has been temporarily disabled for further fixes.
- Vector Frame - Controls reformated and moved to the left side of the frame. Excess space will allow for the future addition of new controls.
- Search Frame - Previously called the "Frequency" frame. Reformated controls. For additional controls, see v2.00 Additions above.
- Wave Frame - Cell height matched to width to form square cells. Scale changed to use 100-percentile increments. Wave motion can now be used with a minimum of either a x or y vector union (both no longer required).
- Motion Frame - Controls reformated and moved to the left side of the frame. Excess space will allow for the future addition of new controls. Synthesis has been temporarily disabled for further fixes. Width and Height slider maximums reduced. For additional controls, see v2.00 Additions above.
-
Fixes:
- Wave Frame - Highest x and y values were being truncated from the wave display.
- Applet behavior - Closing the applet was also closing the browser window from which the applet was launched, and on certain browsers, every browser window was being closed.
-
Dynamic Motion v1.22 Beta (01/22/07)
-
Additions:
- Wave image ("Save Image As..." menu option) - A new "File->Save Image As..." is now available on the Wave Frame. This option will save a jpeg image of the wave table as it currently appears.
-
Dynamic Motion v1.21 Beta (01/19/07)
-
Additions:
- Wave values ("Show Values" checkbox) - Checkbox on the Wave Frame to toggle the display of cell values within the wave table.
- Wave colors ("Show Colors" checkbox) - Checkbox on the Wave Frame to toggle the display of cell colors within the wave table.
- Wave lines ("Show Lines" checkbox) - Checkbox on the Wave Frame to toggle the display of cell lines within the wave table.
-
Fixes:
- Frequency list - Items were being incorrectly weighted/sorted when multiple sorting options were selected.
-
Dynamic Motion v1.20 Beta (01/17/07)
-
Additions:
- Key Feature ~Wave Form Table - Added at the bottom within the "Frequency" group on the vector displacement table, clicking the "Wave" button displays a new Wave Form frame and table. Values within the table are calculated based on the user's vector selections--X and Y displacements are plotted as coordinates--and colored according to concentration amounts--highest concentration is always white, lowest is always black. A "Scale" slider at the bottom of the Wave Form frame allows the user to adjust the scale of the values within the table. In order to use the Wave Form feature, the user must make a selection in the vector displacement table with the "Ignore" X and Y vector checkboxes selected. Any combination of node union may be used along with this. Further, an "Edit" menu at the top of the frame with a "Copy" option allows the user to copy the values in the table as tab-delimited array to the local clipboard.
-
Changes:
- Select Frequency button - Renamed to "Frequency."
- Matches Found label - Renamed to "Matches."
-
Dynamic Motion v1.17 Beta (04/28/06)
