cannot convert from element type object to aug3.arobjrct

what to do?

Hello, I am trying to build an interactive installation as following:

There should be 12 attractors that attract particles depending on their color. I am trying to build 12 different particle systems of different colors that flow around the screen. When something is activated (e.g: mousePressed) the 12 attractors should attract the particles on their particle system.

I am trying to use toxiclibs in order to create the physics and attractors.

Someone did something similar or can help a little bit?

How can I associate the rms.input with a GImageButton?

I think that the problem is that if I have these arguments:

seq3.play(k, 1.0);
rms = new Amplitude(this);
rms.input(seq3);

in the setup() and I press a GImageButton of play, I obtain only 0.0 always, and if I change it to another position to activate them when I press play button an error appear. If I have the example Amplitude in Sound Library and I try to put in draw()

rms = new Amplitude(this); rms.input(sample);

everything crash with the following error:

I need to put and GImageButton to play the song and to start to analize de Amplitude. But if I put these like

public void setup() {
    size(640,360);
    sample = new SoundFile(this, "Seq3.aiff");
}

public void draw() {
    background(125,255,125);
    noStroke();
    fill(255,0,150);

    sum += (rms.analyze() - sum) * smooth_factor;

    float rms_scaled=sum*(height/2)*scale;

    ellipse(width/2, height/2, rms_scaled, rms_scaled);
    println(rms_scaled);
}

void handleButtonEvents(GImageButton button, GEvent event){
if(button == btnPlaySeq3){
    loop();
    seq3.play(k, 1.0);
    rms = new Amplitude(this);
    rms.input(seq3);
    }

everything crash and appear the same error. If I put

rms = new Amplitude(this); rms.input(sample);

in the setup() and only seq3.play(k, 1.0) in the handleButtonEvents like this

void setup() {
            size(640,360);

    sample = new SoundFile(this, "Seq3.aiff");

    rms = new Amplitude(this);
    rms.input(sample);
}

public void draw() {
        background(125,255,125);
        noStroke();
        fill(255,0,150);

        sum += (rms.analyze() - sum) * smooth_factor;

        float rms_scaled=sum*(height/2)*scale;

        ellipse(width/2, height/2, rms_scaled, rms_scaled);
        println(rms_scaled);
    }

void handleButtonEvents(GImageButton button, GEvent event){
if(button == btnPlaySeq3){
    loop();
    seq3.play(k, 1.0);
    }

if(button == btnStopSeq3){
    loop();
    seq3.stop();
    mode = 3;
  }

after press the play button only appears 0.0 and never change. Also, when the soundfile finish, an error appears and I need to reopen the file.

Note: I put only the main code of the problem because I have a lot of Tabs to create a visual interface

from 15 seconds and onwards processing is being used to make interactive graphics.

How was this made, I see ControlP5, but what else is in the making here?

I just want to say I'm just starting to understand processing and I freaking love it. Amazing piece of software!

Thank you so much!

I am creating a click sound, and it works and plays (no looping), but as soon as the file is over, processing makes a horrible screech through my speakers. Very rarely it works with no screech, but more often than not it is there. Im sure it can't be good for the speakers...or my ears.

As a beginner i am exploring basics and few libraries.I am messed up that some libraries don't work which i feel are very useful for me.Many suggested using multiple versions of Processing.Can Processing makers come up with a fix to this ??? Processing is powerful and i don't take the Contributor's work so far for granted.But small/big problem like this annoy a lot and become hurdles from exploring the possibilities.

Hi there guys,

Have been struggling with this piece of code. Basically creating an array of rotated rectangles in a circle. I want to use my specific color palette but since the code is in the draw() function it keeps changing the color on every frame. If I move to setup() the colors get distributed but my slider won't work.

How can I get multicolored rectangles that I can control with each rectangle having a random color pulled out from my array? Thanks!

import controlP5.*;

ControlP5 cp5;

// noise parameters
float xoff = 0.0;
float xincrement = 0.001;

// design parameters
int numberOfElements = 24;
float circularAngle = radians(360);


void setup() {
  size(1000, 1000, P3D);

  cp5 = new ControlP5(this);
  cp5.addSlider("numberOfElements")
    .setPosition(100, 50)
      .setRange(0, 255)
        ;
}


void draw() {
  background(0);
  noStroke();

  for (int i = 0; i < numberOfElements; ++i) {

    pushMatrix();

    //apply a noise or wiggle effect to the rectangles
    xoff += xincrement;
    float n = noise(xoff) * 5;

    //centre each rectangle and displace along Z-axis
    translate(width/2, height/2, 10);

    //rotate and space out equally
    rotate((circularAngle/numberOfElements)*i);

    // setting up my color array/palette
    color [] colarray = {
      #FFFFFF, #F7F7F7, #ECECEC, #333333, #0095a8, #00616f, #FF3300, #FF6600, #FFD800
    };
    int col = colarray[(int)random(0, colarray.length)];

    //ISSUE: This is where the color keeps changing on every frame as we are in draw() mode.
    //If i take the entire draw() code and put it in setup then it runs only once with no access to the slider
    //How do we get each rectangle with different colors as per my chosen color palette without changing on every frame?
    fill(col, 100);
    rect(10*n, 0, 20, 300);

    popMatrix();
  }
}

I want to do a fast fourier transform (fft) with 2^15 = 32768 bands. Even if it basically works I get often crashes while starting the sektch : Java(TM) Platform SE binary does not function So I need to start the same sketch 2 - 3 times before it runs. I am worrying because of stability issues?

A further question is: how can I determine when a new value for a frequency (fft - bin) is computed and available? this sketch gives every 1500 ms a new value because with 2^15 bands one fft frame computation needs 2*bands/sampleRate = 2 * 2^15 /44100 = 1.486 sec = 1486 ms. with frameRate 30 this is achieved within 45 frames so 1500 ms. Is there any event Detection for a new FFT frame or need I to count frames?

import processing.sound.*;

FFT fft;
AudioIn in;

int bands = 32768;
float[] spectrum = new float[bands];

void setup()
{
  size(500, 300);

   // Create an Input stream which is routed into the Amplitude analyzer
  fft = new FFT(this, bands);
  in = new AudioIn(this, 0);

   // start the Audio Input
  in.start();

   // patch the AudioIn
  fft.input(in);
}

void draw() {
  fft.analyze(spectrum);
  println("spectrum["+149+"]: "+spectrum[149]+" time: "+millis());
}

Hi Everyone, I am on beginner level in processing and have been writing a code using ControlP5, yet having issues how to add a button in a class triggered by mouse click. Found this sourcehttps://forum.processing.org/one/topic/having-a-controlp5-controller-inside-a-class.html, which nearly answers my question, without mouseClick. I don't use processing in another environment (so eliminated static+PApplet parts completely). Was also checking the ControlP5 examples, but none of them use ControlEvent in class (or I couldn't find it with my beginner level). I have a solution, but outside of class. The final aim is to collect values assigned to the same objects coming from different controllers. And later on, want to compare those objects based on values. Right now, I only have one controller (textfield, but will create more) "assigned" to objects. Hope I make sense. Any help/recommendation/advice very much appreciated. Thank you!!! first part

import controlP5.*;
Object obj=new Object();
ControlP5 cp5;

int c=0; //object counter
int a=0; //attribute counter

PImage img;
ArrayList<Object> objSet=new ArrayList();
ArrayList<Textfield> t =new ArrayList();
ArrayList s=new ArrayList();
ArrayList temp=new ArrayList();

void setup() {
  size(640, 600);
  img= loadImage("room1.jpg");
  img.resize(320, 300);
  cp5=new ControlP5(this);
}

void draw() {
  background(0);
  image(img, 0, 0);
  //println(objSet.size());
  for (int i=0; i<objSet.size(); i++) {
    Object obj1=(Object) objSet.get(i);
    obj1.display();
  }
}

void mousePressed() {
  if (mouseX<320 && mouseY<300) {
    obj.press();
    a=0;
  }
}

void mouseReleased() {
  if (mouseX<320 && mouseY<300) {
    obj.release();
    objSet.add(obj);
    t.add(cp5.addTextfield("object"+c, 330, 10+c*100, 200, 20)
      .setId(c));
    c+=1;
  }
}

void controlEvent (ControlEvent theEvent) {
  println("got an event from controller id:" +theEvent.getId()+":"+ theEvent.getStringValue());
  temp.add(theEvent.getId()); //collected Id
  s.add(theEvent.getId(), theEvent.getStringValue()); //textField into arrayList
  int tempC=theEvent.getId(); //actual Id
  checker(s,temp,tempC);
  println(s);
}
//you have to fill in with data first, but responds to modification
ArrayList checker(ArrayList toFilter, ArrayList helperA, int helperN) { //removes false values
  int counter=0;
  for (int i=0; i<helperA.size(); i++) {
    if ((int)helperA.get(i)-helperN==0) {
      counter+=1;

  ArrayList attributeV=new ArrayList();

  Object () {
  }

    mouseV.add(new PVector(mouseX, mouseY));
    done=false;
  }

  void release() { //finish rect
    mouseV.add(new PVector(mouseX, mouseY));
    done=true;
  }


  PShape display() {
    PVector centroid= new PVector();
    PShape rect=new PShape();
    if (done==true) {
      noFill();

        PVector v1= (PVector)mouseV.get(i-1);
        PVector v2= (PVector)mouseV.get(i);
        rect= createShape(RECT, v1.x, v1.y, v2.x-v1.x, v2.y-v1.y);

Hello,i made i model that corresponds to my original model,it was based to the example of the saito library,but i want also to transfer the texture.I can take the uv in 3d space coordinates from the model,but i cannot correspond them to each face.The saito libary give me space coordinates but the processing takes 0,1 or 100,200.Here is the code.Can anyone help?I want this to be part of my degree.

Here is the code

import saito.objloader.*;

OBJModel model ;
OBJModel tmpmodel ;

float rotX, rotY;
float k = 0.0;

void setup()
{
  size(800, 600, P3D);
  frameRate(30);
  model = new OBJModel(this, "Model1.obj", "absolute", TRIANGLES);
  model.enableDebug();

  model.scale(100);
  model.translateToCenter();

  tmpmodel = new OBJModel(this, "Model1.obj", "absolute", TRIANGLES);
  tmpmodel.enableDebug();

  tmpmodel.scale(100);
  tmpmodel.translateToCenter();

  stroke(255);
  noStroke();
}



void draw()
{
  background(129);
  lights();

  pushMatrix();
  translate(width/2, height/2);
  beginShape(TRIANGLES);
  float face = model.getFaceCount();

  for (int i =0; i< face; i++) {

    PVector [] orgv = model.getFaceVertices(i);


    for (int k =0; k< orgv.length; k++) {

      PVector  uv = model.getUV(k);
      PVector m = new PVector();


      println("uv "+uv);
      m = orgv[k];
      //m.x= m.x+noise(100);

      //int g = i/3;

      vertex(orgv[k].x, orgv[k].y, orgv[k].z, uv.x, uv.y);
    }
  }

  endShape();
  popMatrix();

  pushMatrix();
  translate(width/2, height/2, 0);
  rotateX(rotY);
  rotateY(rotX);

  //model.draw();
  //tmpmodel.draw();
  //model.clear();
  popMatrix();
}

Thanks in advance

Hello all; If you look at another one of my discussions you will see I have been working on a genetic algorithm.

Hi guys,

What should I do to be able to print the relevant item? eg: I want the console to print out just the word 'ADD' or 'SUBTRACT' and so on. I want to later use this as part of a String Variable to pass into the default blendMode() function. That way I will be able to allow for user input/choice of blendMode. That way it would read as blendMode(ADD) or blendMode(SUBTRACT).

I tried getName(), etc but was not able to access it. Right now it prints:

1 {text=SUBTRACT, color=bg (0,45,90), fg (0,116,217), active (0,170,255), captionlabel (255,255,255), valuelabel (255,255,255), name=SUBTRACT, state=false, value=1, view=controlP5.ScrollableList$1@66a35419}

import controlP5.*;

ControlP5 cp5;

void setup() {
  size(400, 400);
  cp5 = new ControlP5(this);
  List l = Arrays.asList("ADD", "SUBTRACT", "DARKEST ", "LIGHTEST ", "DIFFERENCE", "EXCLUSION",
  "MULTIPLY", "SCREEN", "OVERLAY", "HARD_LIGHT", "SOFT_LIGHT", "DODGE", "BURN");
  /* add a ScrollableList, by default it behaves like a DropdownList */
  cp5.addScrollableList("dropdown")
    .setPosition(100, 100)
      .setSize(200, 100)

Many cloud services use MQTT and they require an initial connection using a username and password. I have not found the ability to set these parameters with any of the MQTT type libraries i have found for processing. Is this capability available ?

For a project I need to interact with a phone menu (like Computer Telephony Integration voice/tones menu) How can I do this? Is there an interface to connect a land phone and hear Text-to speech scripts that could receive tones?

Ok, so I'd like to project a few pictures to the wall. I'd like the tint to change gradually, depending on the volume of audio output. The audio is coming from audio samples (so not MIDI instruments, if that makes any difference) in Ableton Live Suite, which I'm controlling in real-time. Any codes/links would be super helpful - stressed postgrad student :) Thank you!

Is there a way to implement a custom generator/processor using the Sound Library? I did it very easily with the minim library (e.g. I implemented my custom reverb) but I cannot find any example with the Sound library.

I would like to pushMatrix before the translate statement and pop it after the text statement. But it's no possible. Is there another way to keep the cp5 elements from listening to the translate(400, 400) and make them (0,0)

import controlP5.*; ControlP5 cp5;

public float sliderBredd = 0; public float sliderHojd = 0;

PFont myFont;

void setup() { size(800, 800); cp5 = new ControlP5(this);

cp5.addSlider("sliderBredd") .setRange(-255, 255) .setPosition(40, 40) .setSize(200, 29) ;

cp5.addSlider("sliderHojd") .setRange(-255, 255) .setPosition(40, 80) .setSize(200, 29) ; }

void draw () { background(255, 255, 255); myFont = createFont("Times-Roman", 48); textFont(myFont, 272); translate(400, 400);

for (int i=0; i<12; i=i+1) {

fill(14, 105, 237);
textAlign(CENTER);
rotate(PI*1/3);
text("Q", sliderBredd, sliderHojd);

} }

Hello,

I wrote a programme for audio-reactive visuals … usually I perform live in clubs (like here), but this time I need to record a video (sound doesn’t matter). I tried to write out jpegs, and a screen capture with Quicktime, but both slows down the programme a bit. However it is pretty essential that the visuals react precisely to the audio.

Does anybody have some advice maybe?

Cheers!

Hi all,

I'm looking for a library or piece of code that can link processing to weather data, either real time, or in the form of the standard typical meteorological year (TMY) of EnergyPlus.

Any ideas of existing implementations? I spotted a Yaoo weather library by onformative on processing.org but the link is broken.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
