Hello all, the title sums pretty much what I aim to do.
TL;DR, what's your question dude?
Is there a way to draw the whole Processing window into a PGraphics object, a bit akin to how you can
draw the stage in a BitmapData in AS3?
Some Background
I'm building a Processing sketch which will be displayed during a live performance of my band
Appalaches. I am in fact redoing a project that James Paterson did a while back, you can see the code in progress and read about the project on the
Github repo.
The plan is to have a wide Processing window in which Paterson's drawings will float upwards. That part already works properly, see a screenshot below:
As you can see from the Github repo explanations, the final product should only be one image, like so:
I will merge these parts of the Processing window into Max, with Jitter. I will add some other features from there as well.
That project is part of a larger project. The container of all this is a
Max patch whose output will be connected to a projector. Supposedly this is our setup:
So I managed to get Processing to display what I want. I want to send the content of that window to Max. I have installed the
Syphon
plugin. Now it seems that I need to send a
PGraphics
object via Syphon.
Is there a way to draw the whole Processing window into a PGraphics object, a bit akin to how you can
draw the stage in a BitmapData in AS3?
Thanks!
