Tile images in a grid

Post by iforce2d »

This script will duplicate selected images based on their size and angle, so that the new copies form a tiled grid.

Code: Select all

//change as necessary
int repeatX = 5;
int repeatY = 3;

image[] imgs = si();
for (int i = 0; i < imgs.length; i++) {

	image img = imgs[i];	

	//find translation to exactly fit neighbor tiles
	float h = img.getScale();
	float aspectRatio = img.getAspectScale() * img.getPixelWidth() / img.getPixelHeight();
	float w = h * aspectRatio;
	print(w+" "+h);

	//rotate translation 
	float angle = img.getAngle();
	vec2 right = mv( cos(angle) * w, sin(angle) * w );
	vec2 up = mv( -sin(angle) * h, cos(angle) * h );

	//duplicate
	for (int x = 0; x < repeatX; x++) {
		for (int y = 0; y < repeatY; y++) {
			if ( x == 0 && y == 0 )
				continue;
			translate( duplicate( img ), x * right + y * up );
		}
	}

}
