 1.14       External User Interface Files

 Personal Paint 6.1 has a "new look". All user interface pictures  (tools,
 gadget  images, etc.)  are stored  in a  separate and editable file named
 "UIGraphics.pic" (inside "PPaint_Prefs").

 The file  may be  stored in  GIF format  to reduce  disk occupation.  For
 faster  program loading after hard disk installation, it can be loaded as
 a brush and saved again using the IFF-ILBM format.


 3.1.4.1    Image Processing - Stereograms

 How to Create a Stereogram

 To generate a stereogram, you need to use both program environments:  one
 to  provide depth  information and  one to  render the actual stereogram.
 Stereogram  animations  are  also  possible.  If  you  select the Pattern
 stereogram  type (SIPS) instead of the  Random Dot type (SIRDS), you need
 to store a tile-pattern in the current brush.

 In single image stereograms, the  "hidden image" is defined by  different
 levels  of depth. The 3D image does  not have its own colors: it consists
 of depth  information only.  It does  however inherit  the texture of the
 "container"  image,  where  very  creative  combinations  of  colors  and
 patterns can be used. In the pattern type of stereograms, for example,  a
 pattern  can be used to create a forest or a sea, where the 3D shapes can
 be concealed.

 Depth information  is provided  by shapes  drawn in  different levels  of
 gray. Simple shapes are normally easier and quicker to recognize. If text
 needs  to be written in the hidden  image, sans-serif, extra bold type is
 usually  more  readable.  Black  indicates  the "most elevated" (closest)
 level,  white  corresponds  to  the  "deepest"  (farthest)  level,  while
 "flatness" is associated  to a 50%  gray (in the  Palette requester: H=0,
 S=0,  V=50%). This is the level which is not distorted when using pattern
 stereograms. Note  that "front"  and "back"  are subjective,  and can  be
 reversed   depending  on  the  technique  used  for  viewing  the  image:
 cross-eyed or parallel style.

 Extreme depths,  such as  those associated  to black  and white,  are not
 necessarily the easiest to recognize. To the contrary. Highest quality is
 usually provided by intensities closer to medium levels of gray.

 For  a quick test, draw a black box  on a 50% gray background. Then go to
 the other environment, choose an appropriate screen mode (having the same
 size as the  screen containing the  black box) and  color palette, select
 Image  Processing from the Project menu  and select one of the Stereogram
 filters.  SIRDS  (Random  Dot  Single  Image Stereograms) are constructed
 using  random dots, whereas  SIPS (Single Image  Pattern Stereograms) use
 the current  brush to  create a  pattern. Personal  Paint will render the
 stereogram  in the current environment.  Different variants of predefined
 filters are provided: High Quality filters produce stereograms which  are
 easier  to  recognize,  whereas  the  More  Levels filters are capable of
 rendering more detailed depth variations (up to 256 levels, associated to
 gray shades ranging from white to black).

 The pattern used for SIPS stereograms should be as "fractal" as possible.
 Smooth  color  transitions  and  wide  areas  of the same color should be
 avoided.  The more color-information per unit of length, the stronger the
 illusion will be. Since the patterns are slightly distorted to render the
 stereogram,  patterns  which  are  naturally  irregular  (such as leaves,
 waves,  grass, marble,  etc.) tend  to be  more suitable than other (more
 geometrical) shapes. Of  course it is  possible to retouch  the resulting
 stereogram,  or paste it into another picture, to create something like a
 beach with a shark hidden underwater.

 Help  symbols  can  be  placed  automatically on stereograms. By default,
 these  are constructed by drawing small squares  on top of the image, but
 they can easily be  replaced by pasting a  custom brush over the  square.
 For convenience and maximum accuracy, the squares have an odd pixel size,
 so  that in Magnify mode the brush  handle can quickly be positioned over
 the central pixel of the box.

 Technically, stereograms are created by constructing vertical columns  of
 almost  identical  patterns.  When  the  eyes  are  crossed or widened as
 required  to  view  single  image  stereograms,  each  eye  focuses  on a
 different  column. The difference  between the repeated  patterns is very
 similar to the difference perceived by the eyes when looking at an object
 in the real world. What makes stereograms particularly interesting from a
 scientific point of view is that perspective information is not  required
 at  all. In fact, people who normally  rely on perspective rather than on
 eye convergence to calculate distances have more difficulties than others
 when viewing stereograms.

 The wider  the pattern  (i.e., the  columns), the  greater the  perceived
 distance.  Too narrow  or too  wide patterns  should however  be avoided,
 since the resulting stereograms  are not easy to  view (the eyes must  be
 able  to  cross  or  widen  enough,  so  that  two  consecutive  patterns
 overlap).

 The width of the  pattern is determined either  by the brush width  (SIPS
 stereograms)  or by other filter settings  (Appendix C). In case of SIPS,
 the current environment should have the same color palette as the  brush.
 For stereograms about as large as a VGA computer screen, 8 columns should
 provide  a  good  quality/contrast  compromise.  This means that for SIPS
 stereograms  the  brush  width  would  be  1/8th  of the screen width, in
 pixels. Of course a brush can contain a pattern which is already repeated
 two or more times in the brush itself.

 The stereogram cannot render any information in the far left and right of
 the  image. This is because there can  be no overlapping of patterns when
 one eye approaches the left or right edge, since the other eye would look
 outside the image.

 The  complexity,  and  most  of  the  compromises  of  computer generated
 stereogram  generation are  caused by  the fact  that each column forms a
 pair with both the column to its left and the one to its right. When  all
 this  information  is  overlapped,  shadows  and echo effects may appear.
 Personal Paint's filter settings  (Appendix C) provide different  options
 to  finely tune the creation process. For example, where "ghost" outlines
 result from very sharp changes in elevation (more likely to occur in SIPS
 than in  SIRDS), flattening  the image,  increasing the  Quality value or
 activating  the  Echo  Suppression  option  should help. Echo Suppression
 works by  using random  stripes of  the pattern  as necessary.  As a side
 effect, the hidden shapes may emerge in the final image.

 For  very small stereograms (e.g. thumbnail format), a High Quality SIRDS
 style with high contrast image colors (e.g. black and white) could be the
 best choice, if ease of recognition is a priority.

 For stereo-animations, SIRDS are usually preferred to SIPS, because large
 patterns changing position from frame to frame would disturb the  viewer.
 Appendix  C  explains  how  to  change  the  random  seed  for  SIRDS, or
 automatically use a new  seed for each stereogram.  One may think that  a
 constant  animation background  (as could  be provided  by using positive
 BiasDx values) would  help recognition of  animated stereograms. In  most
 cases,  practice has proven the  opposite to be true:  if the random seed
 does not change from one frame to the other (and thus the pattern remains
 constant), the brain becomes able to concentrate on the "tricks" employed
 to render the stereogram.  So it is better  to use negative values  (i.e.
 "noisy"  background). In any case, creating an animation using a positive
 random seed value remains an interesting experiment.



 Viewing Stereograms

 Important: Single  image stereograms  have recently  become very  popular
 through  posters and  best-selling books  (e.g. "Magic Eye", "Stereogram"
 and "3D Wonderland" series). Personal Paint uses some of the most  recent
 and effective stereogram generation techniques, although the first papers
 dealing  with this  subject have  been published  more than 30 years ago.
 Since stereograms  were first  used for  scientific visualization  and in
 medical  tests, research has been conducted  on potential side effects of
 humans  viewing  such  images.  Not  only  have  no  harmful effects been
 discovered,  but the techniques used for viewing single image stereograms
 are  also  sometimes  employed  for  eye  training.  While even reading a
 textbook  may cause  eye strain  and mental  fatigue, we  believe that it
 remains prudent  to consider  that crossing  eyes, merging  two different
 views  into one and separating focusing  from convergence are all actions
 which  do  not  occur  frequently  in  a natural environment. People with
 ametropia  (e.g. hypermetropia or astigmatism)  may tire more easily when
 viewing these images.  Also, some optometrists  have advised that  people
 with autonomic ataxia and those at the beginning of farsightedness caused
 by age should avoid attempting naked eyed 3D viewing.

 What  is a  single image  stereogram? It  is a  single picture containing
 different information for the left and  right eye. When the eyes look  at
 the  picture "normally", the hidden  clues cannot be recognized. However,
 when each eye  looks at a  different spot on  the picture (which  is what
 happens  when the eyes pretend to look  at an object positioned before or
 beyond  the  picture),  after  some  adjusting,  matching patterns can be
 recognized.  Acting on eye convergence and divergence, the differences in
 the pattern provide the brain with depth information.

 While other methods  use polarized light  or colored glasses  to separate
 the  images, single image stereograms can be  seen by focusing on a point
 which is either between the  eyes and the picture (cross-eyed  style), or
 much farther away than the picture (parallel style). Some stereograms can
 be seen in one of the two styles only.

 Most  stereograms have  two reference  symbols on  top of the picture, to
 ease proper adjusting. When you stare  at the page out of focus,  the two
 symbols  may appear as four. This is  because the eyes do not converge on
 the same image, and thus see "double". Now slowly adjust your eyes  until
 the  two inner symbols overlap, so that you see a total of three symbols.
 This is the  appropriate convergence to  see the stereogram.  Slowly move
 your  eyes downwards.  You should  soon begin  to recognize  some shapes,
 which your eyes will be able  to focus on. The process can  be initiated,
 for  example, either by bringing  a finger close to  your eyes and moving
 it,  or  by  imagining  to  concentrate  on  something very distant (e.g.
 mountains  or clouds), or  by putting the  picture to the  nose, and then
 slowly  moving  it  forward,  leaving  the  eyes  unfocused.  It  is very
 important  that  the  page  be  perfectly  flat and horizontal. All edges
 should have about the  same distance from your  face. Try and resist  the
 temptation  to focus on the monitor (or  paper). Once the brain begins to
 merge the two images, focusing will slowly follow automatically.

 Some  people  experience  more  difficulties  than  others  when seeing a
 stereogram for the first time. Here is what William C. Haga had to say on
 the  Internet: "Being  one who  has used  wide-eyed vision  on chain link
 fences ever since I was a kid,  I was able to see the images  right away.
 But  I've had difficulty explaining the technique to friends. Today I had
 the latest Games magazine with me at my parents' house. Games is  running
 another contest using SIRDS, so there are three in the latest issue. This
 time  I thought of the reflection idea.  So I opened mom's china cabinet,
 put the  magazine against  the glass  in the  door, and  told mom to keep
 looking  at her own reflection in the  glass until the image appeared. It
 took less than thirty seconds. When  she saw the 3D train engines,  I was
 subjected  to a squeal of delight that I hadn't heard from her for a long
 time..."


 3.1.4      Image Processing - Alpha Channel

 The alpha  channel is  a special  feature which  is available  with Brush
 Transparency  effects. The alpha channel mode is activated by setting the
 Bias value to -1, and  requires two consecutive brushes rather  than one.
 In  this mode, the degree of transparency of each pixel in the brush is a
 function of  the brightness  of the  corresponding pixels  in the  second
 brush,  rather than being defined by the plain Bias value. The additional
 transparency information  provided by  the second  brush is  called alpha
 channel.  This data is very useful, for example, to create and manipulate
 images which must remain antialiased regardless of the background.  White
 pixels  in the second  brush correspond to  complete opacity, while black
 and undefined pixels indicate full transparency.

 Example. Suppose you  want to paste  down a brush  which is solid  in the
 center  and  gradually  becomes  more  transparent towards the edges. The
 alpha  channel  brush  would  reflect  this  and  can  be created using a
 gradient fill, white in the center fading to black around the edges.


 Animation

 Personal  Paint  accepts  and  creates  the  following animation formats:
 ANIM-5, ANIM-7 (short and long-words), ANIM-8 (short and long-words)  and
 hybrid files which may contain any combination of these frame formats. In
 general, ANIM-5 remains the most space-efficient and widely used format.

 Personal  Paint includes the  original Auto ANIM  save format, which, for
 each animation  frame, selects  the best  compression scheme  (ANIM-5, 7,
 etc.)  Compared to  pure ANIM-5  files, hybrid  files may  be up to 5-10%
 shorter,  and  still  remain  fully  compatible  with  the  official ANIM
 specifications.

 ANIM-8  is an evolution of ANIM-5, just  as ANIM-7 is, although ANIM-7 is
 generally considered to be superior. Compared to ANIM-5, both formats may
 achieve faster loading of animation files.


 The Animation Menu: Storyboard

 In the Animation Storyboard, three dots under a reduced picture  indicate
 frames  having a palette differing  from the current one. Double-clicking
 on a frame makes that frame (and its palette) the current one.


 7.2.3      Edit Stencil

 Multiple colors can be selected  or deselected with a single  mouse click
 by  dragging the  mouse (with  the mouse  button pressed)  over the color
 boxes in the  the Stencil requester  (just as in  the tool bar  palette).
 This is especially useful with large palettes.


 8.8        File Requester

 The  File Requester menu allows the user to replace the standard Personal
 Paint file requester with an ASL (Amiga Standard Library) compatible file
 requester, such as the Magic  File Requester. A second requester  appears
 to  select the image format  when saving a picture,  unless the file name
 suffix  indicates  a  file  format.  Recognized  suffixes  include: ".c",
 ".gif",  ".iff",  ".ilbm",  ".lbm"  and  ".pcx". For example: "Clown.gif"
 would automatically be saved in GIF format, but in the case of  filenames
 such  as "Flower.pic" or  "Painting", a format  selection requester would
 appear.


 A.         Program Messages

 The filter requires a brush

 Some image  processing filters  use the  current brush  to apply  certain
 transformations  to the image. This message  appears if no brush has been
 defined.


 The filter requires an additional brush

 Image processing effects  such as Alpha  Channel require two  consecutive
 brushes.


 The filter requires two environments

 Stereograms and other effects require two environments (i.e. two images).
 The filters apply the changes to the current environment, using the other
 environment as a source.


 UIGraphics.pic cannot be loaded

 The  file containing the  images used in  Personal Paint's user interface
 could  not  be   loaded.  Possible  causes   include:  file  not   found,
 insufficient  memory,  file  corrupt.  When  editing  the  image,  it  is
 important that the reference lines used  to the delimit the areas in  the
 picture be respected and not modified. Section 1.14.


 B.         Command Shortcuts

 In  program requesters not containing any  text gadgets, the <Return> and
 <Esc> keys can be used instead of the Proceed (or OK) and Cancel gadgets,
 in addition to other keyboard shortcuts which may appear underlined.

 Storyboard Requester
 <Shift-Cursor Up> = Jump to first frame
 <Shift-Cursor Down> = Jump to last frame


 C.1        Program Settings

 FILTER  (Image Processing Filters - Section 3.1.4)

 The  second  parameter  (Filter  Type)  can  be  in  the  range  0-8 (6 =
 Environment Transparency, 7 = Brush Transparency, 8 = Stereogram).

 The following notes apply to the Stereogram Filter Type.

 A  value of DivFac (Division Factor,  range SHORTMIN .. SHORTMAX) greater
 than zero generates SIRDS (random dot) stereograms and indicates how many
 columns are to  be created. This  means that the  pattern of random  dots
 will  be as wide as the image width  divided by DivFac. Values of zero or
 less generate SIPS stereograms, which use the current use as a pattern.

 Bias  (range  1  ..  16)  allows  to  make  some changes which affect the
 perceived  quality of the stereogram. Lower quality stereograms (low Bias
 values)  allow  for  more  levels  of  depth, but may generate defects in
 certain shapes (e.g. thick vertical bars may appear thin). Higher quality
 images  are easier to recognize, but their "flatness" (which is relative,
 because the contrast is excellent) leaves less room for different  levels
 of depth.

 BiasDx (range SHORTMIN .. SHORTMAX) is used as a Random Seed for SIRDS in
 general  and  for  SIPS  with  Echo  suppression. Negative values cause a
 different seed to be generated automatically each time the filter  begins
 processing.  Values >= 0 allow exact reproduction of SIRDS, as the patter
 remains constant for each single value.

 BiasDy  controls  different  other  options,  which are associated to its
 individual  bits. The range is 0 .. 3,  and the values must be added: 1 =
 Help Symbols (on top of image), 2 = Echo Suppression.


 DISPLAY  (Amiga DisplayID - Section 4.5)

 A  value  of  0xFFFFFFFF  indicates  to  use  the same screen mode as the
 Workbench  screen. This  was designed  with the  program startup files in
 mind. By default, Personal Paint is launched with the same screen mode as
 the  Workbench,  which  avoids  monitor  flickering  in  combination with
 graphics boards.


 FILREQ  (File Requester Flags - Section 8.8)

 The  6th  bit  in  the  FILREQ  program  setting is associated to the ASL
 (system) file requester option. The range for FILREQ is 0-63.

 Cloanto Product Presentation: Personal Fonts Maker and Color Extensions

 The  Personal Fonts Maker has been acclaimed as "the best bitmapped fonts
 editor  for  the  Amiga"  by  enthusiasts  and  professionals  from Scala
 Computer Television to Kara Computer Graphics. It is the leading tool for
 handling  fonts in up to  256 colors (no size  limit, RTG compatible). It
 can  even  create  printer  download  fonts  (to  achieve maximum printer
 quality  and  speed)  and  anti-alias  Amiga vector fonts. Numerous other
 tools are included.

 The Personal Fonts Maker is a powerful tool for designing and  processing
 bitmapped  fonts. Amiga fonts  and fonts created  with the Personal Fonts
 Maker can  be transferred  to the  printer memory  and printed at maximum
 quality  and speed. The Personal Fonts  Maker can output fonts in formats
 which can be read  by other Amiga programs,  by other computers and  by a
 vast  range of differing  printers (even 48-pin  and laser printers). The
 program can handle IFF graphics. It is possible, for example, to work  on
 typographical   fonts   input   from   a   scanning   device.  Repetitive
 transformations on characters or entire fonts can be recorded, stored and
 executed as macros. A special programming language can be used to  define
 the  format in  which fonts  are to  be saved  or sent  to a printer. The
 Personal Fonts Maker package includes  a multitude of original fonts  and
 support  tools like the Printer Driver Modifier, which allows the user to
 personalize printer  drivers. It  is easy  - and  fun -  to work with the
 Personal  Fonts Maker, thanks to the elegant and intuitive user interface
 (with  stereo  sound  effects).  The  manual  is  full  of  examples  and
 introductory sections for novice users, and comes complete with technical
 information for Amiga experts.

 The  Color Extensions add powerful  color font processing capabilities to
 the  basic  package.  Most  of  Personal  Paint's editing tools have been
 incorporated  into the  package. For  the first  time, it  is possible to
 process  fonts  in  up  to  256  colors  and no size limit. Among others,
 special functions for anti-aliasing (even using an Amiga vector font as a
 point  of departure) and right-to-left fonts  are provided. This makes it
 an  ideal  companion  to  video  applications,  and a must in the titling
 environment.

 The  Color Extensions come free with the new Personal Fonts Maker package
 (known as "Version 2"). Use with Personal Paint is recommended, in  order
 to take advantage of additional functions and extended documentation.

 Cloanto Product Presentation: Personal Write

 Personal  Write  is  a  very  usable,  fast  and  affordable  Amiga  word
 processor.  Its features include: multiple text windows, mail merge, data
 compression  (to  save  disk  space),  encryption  of confidential texts,
 MS-DOS   and  Mac  character  sets  (and  many  more),  printer  spooler,
 PostScript driver, etc. Ideal as a first word processor, its original and
 powerful text processing capabilities make it an invaluable companion  to
 any other software package.

 Personal  Write is an extremely fast  word processor packed with original
 capabilities. It fully exploits unique Amiga characteristics like windows
 and  multitasking.  Personal  Write  does  not  limit  the number of text
 windows  which can be open at the same time. The combination of speed and
 space organization makes it an excellent mind extending tool. A  built-in
 spooler  can print  even the  longest texts  in the background, while the
 program is used to do other work. Personal Write can encrypt confidential
 documents, which become unreadable  to unauthorized users, and  save disk
 space  by compressing texts.  Personal Write is  also a powerful tool for
 converting  texts  into  different  formats.  It  can load and save texts
 combining  more than 25 character sets of the most widely used computers.
 Control codes can be added or removed, as required by desktop  publishing
 programs,   Amiga  system  functions  or   other  hardware  and  software
 environments.  Thousands  of  combinations  of  printer  settings  can be
 selected to make the best use of features like the PostScript driver, the
 multistrike   print  mode,  support   for  automatic  justification  with
 proportional characters  and Personal  Fonts Maker  fonts. Alphanumerical
 labels  can be  used in  the text  for mail  merge or to reorganize data.
 Keyboard shortcuts and the texts which are displayed can be redefined  to
 personalize  the user interface (which includes stereo sound effects). An
 automatic  hard  disk  installation  procedure  can  be selected with the
 mouse.
