round corner

[yochee]

Hi there, long time no see

I currently need an effect to round a corner shape, basically something like this

The source graphic to be rounded (or say "simplified") will be an image file maybe png with a more a less complicated shape (outline of a logo) which is applied to a clip slot in Resolume.

I had a look at the effects in Resolume and only in Wire i could find the "round" node. However I can only apply that to "shape2d" or a "slice", not to a "texture in".

Is there a way I could use the "round" node to a texture? maybe convert the texture somehow..
Or do I have to paint the shape included in the png to a slice, and then import to wire..? seems overly complicated.

Any ideas?


oh, and I'm still using Wire 7.13...

Maybe using a few circles [different x/y translations] as a Mask sources?

..can you explain a bit further, what you mean by that?

for now I only have the logo with sharp corners that should be transitioned to rounded corners.


The "round" node in wire does exactly what I need but only to slices or shape2d.
Do you mean Mask sources = slices?

Other approach might be to import a custom shape2d, is it possible to do so in Wire?

btw a little feature request for the "round"-node.

for now the round node rounds the corners of a slice to the outside. but i think it should be into the inside, because otherwise the rounded corners would be outside of the visible area of a slice in the projection.

use case for round would be for example if you'd wanna round up the hexagon to a circle

Textures inputs are rasterized images, shapes are math formulas.
Finding corners in textures would require some kind of object recognition which Wire doesn't have currently.

Slice masks are not constrained to the slice areas. If you modify the shape of a slice mask (which is a formula), you might be making bigger.
Transform can be used to make it smaller with the Scale < 1

Outside corners could be rounded with something like this:
