Re: exporting to imovie Reply #1 - Oct 27th, 2005, 10:01pm   You can do this by saving the screen contents to a file sequence and then use quicktime to import them as a sequence. That would give you a .mov I don't know about imovie, but perhaps that, or something like it, will allow you to import a sequence of images and then save as a the correct file type. Code: int frame, rate_total; int saveonframe = x; // set this void draw() { if(frame ++ % saveonframe == 0) { saveFrame(); rate_total += framerate(); } } public void stop() { println( rate_total / (frame / saveonframe) + " fps"); super.stop(); }

It's not exactly a video: I have six sketches that graph Perlin noise, and I just want them to be combined. What is the best way to do this?

But a quick look at above code shows you should use frameRate without parentheses, ie. as a variable, not as a function call.
