I was trying to add different particles from particle component in combination with environment component of aframe, i was not able to create a fiddle as at the time of writing this question i was getting 'Not found: package "aframe-environment-component" ' for aframe-environment-component,
While looking around i found takahirox, which works well with environment component (tested), but i am trying to put different particle system effect to different environments. I tried to set presets for different particle systems like, rain, snow, etc. But, i was not able to run it successfully with environment-component and particle system component in one page, if i remove environment component, i am able to set particle system properly, but not with environment component. Any help is appreciated.
I am quite unable to figure out why they are not working together, so I can only offer a workaround: You can tweak takahirox component properties to get snow, I've tried setting:
color:#ffffff;vector:-1 -2 0;count:500;opacity: 1;splash:false;width:40;dropHeight:0.2
White color, slower drop, less drops, no opacity, no splash, no "rainDrop tail", and it quite looks like snow :)
If You want to achieve dust, i would get there a brown fog, and make the rain go more horizontal ( tweak the vector attribute ).

When Octave draws a plot, I would like it to set that to be the active window automatically, so that it becomes visible and I don't have to click back and forth between windows to see if the code and plot have finished. Is this possible? Since it would require reaching outside of Octave and controlling the OS, I'm not sure; it depends on whether or not that capability is part of Octave but I haven't found a reference for it yet.
I can always tell Octave to close the figure before opening a new one in the code, but that could prevent me from drawing multiple plots on the same axes, and it would require me to code that command in every time. It would be nice if there were a direct way just to bring the plot to be visible and take dominance over other windows.
EDIT: Somehow, although I noted that Octave would be required to control the OS to achieve this, I completely forgot to mention what that was... I'm running Windows 10 with the default window manager; I believe that would be the Desktop Window Manager.
When you plot something on a figure (whether you specify the figure you're plotting to within the plot command explicitly or simply let it plot into the currently active figure implicitly), this does not automatically raise the figure window to the forefront.
To do so, call the figure again using the figure function, along with the handle that you want to raise.
Alternatively, if you're sure that the figure you want to raise is the currently active one, you can simply use the shg command (which is effectively equivalent to figure(gcf))
E.g.
Fig1 = figure; % (or figure(1) if you want to be explicit)
Fig2 = figure; % (or figure(2) if you want to be explicit)
figure(Fig1); plot(1:10); % raise Fig1 to the forefront, and plot.
PS: Note that there was a bug affecting this behaviour until recently (coincidentally submitted by yours truly :p See https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?45943 ). This is fixed in the latest version of octave though (i.e. 5.1.0)
I have about 500 images, I would like edit all of them in batch, I need to resize them all at to 190x120 dimensions, position then slightly higher (say 10 pixels). And export. Also I would like them all to keep their initial names.
Basically I have a frame and I would like to load images (on layer under it) then size them down (above dimensions) move slightly up and export each individual image with frame so that it keeps its name.
What would be a command I could use in GIMP console (script-fu or Python-fu)?
Or what other method could I use to achieve the result without editing each image individually?
Thanks in advance!
i altered one of my own python-fu scripts, and after some testing it seems to do what you want. the interface itself is pretty self-explanatory.
just download the file and install it as a plug-in.

I'm using the datamaps library for d3 and I have asked the question unsuccessfully there on github so I wanted to cross-post it here.
What I'm trying to do is to visualise two measures – Income Inequality (Gini) and GDP per capita – in one world map and make it possible to switch between the two views.
I am almost there. Here is my example.
On the top you can choose which measure to look at and the updating works – except that the updated map is plotted underneath the previous one and not on top. This is happening even though I'm referring to the same id with both maps.
What am I missing?
Thanks for helping me!
EDIT: I managed to get it a little bit nicer – here is the updated version – but the maps are still printed over and over again below the space where they should appear.
I made a lot of these same mistakes when I first used D3. You have to use an enter(), update(), exit() pattern. There are lots of good tutorials on how to do that. Fundamentally, your structure is not setup correctly and is going to give you trouble.
For your code, you want to do the following:
Move the initial call to map() inside the map function.
Nest the map() function inside another function where you config your variables. You need to do all your global data/variable defining here.
Inside that config function, include d3.select(#radialbuttonname) and re run the map() function to update the chart on.click.
Inside the map function, you need to create functions for .data().enter(), .data.exit().remove(), and .data().transition(). That will replace the same SVG map area with a new map rather than just appending more svg's below.
You can change the tooltips and those other elements with if/then operators and remove() inside the map() function.
That should get you on your way..
I have a code to plot a world map with a meteorological field for one moment (or one measure).
Is it possible to successively plot the map for different moments (for i from 1 to 125) in order to view a sort of video when we run the code?
Yes, look at the animation package.
It can creates an animated gif for you (as well as other tricks). There are live examples you can look at as eg Buffon's needle, a CLT demo and much more.
The package abstracts away some of the OS-dependent layers. If you know the basics, you can of course just call the corresponding tool from the imagemagick project which is likely to be available on OS of choice too.
Sometimes I will place a legend at a particular location on the plot, let's say topright, and then I see that it covers an important part of the plot. Is there a way I can switch it to topleft or some other place without having to run all the other commands first? Sometimes I have the same problem with the axes, I misspell a word and then I have to issue all the commands again.
I eventually place everything in an R script which means this becomes less of a problem, but sometimes I want to quickly test something in console. Please tell me I have overlooked a basic command that does this.
There is no such thing, but you're on the right track - a script is definitely the way to go. I would also recommend R Studio, a free R IDE, which gives you several displays, one for scripts, one for the console, one for your plots - it's great! It makes working with scripts as easy as interacting with the traditional R console.
As Gabriel told you, a script is the best way. However, the following link could help you:
