javascript - Automatic arrangement of images/rectangles on a canvas with overlapping -

-

i looking randomly arrange number of images (or simplicity, rectangles) of given sizes on canvas. want these images/rectangles able overlap (edges, sides etc) i.e. don't want image covering image entirely. these images/rectangles parallel x , y axes. also, want images fit canvas area no unused white space.

i came across bin packing, quadtree etc. none of these allow overlaps. have idea how might implemented? or point me towards right direction?

thank :)

assuming conditions specified:

  • no unused white space
  • axis aligned orientation
  • allow margin overlapping
  • never cover whole image

we can use bin packing or quadtree algorithms (or whatever), first want manipulate data set.

  1. loop through list of image dimensions
    • decide if image should allowed overlap (for tuning desired output)
    • increase dimension data (within margin) used in preferred algorithm(bin-pack/quadtree) (keeping original data well)
  2. process data chosen algorithm
  3. sort z order/render order (sort random, sort area, etc)
  4. render images using original dimension data - sure use origin points @ center of area, not corners

essentially, decide overlap of given image before set arranged.

i can think of 2 limitations:

  1. the minimum image size based on largest overlap allow.
    • this solved sorting largest smallest rendering order.
  2. depending on how sort images , size of canvas, images may not fill canvas - there may gaps left bin packing.
    • this may solvable more complex algorithms - haven't used them enough know.
    • you may able scale images fill area - again, don't know enough area.

c++ - wxwidget compiling on windows command prompt -

-
can please guide me on method,as how compile wxwidget using windows command prompt or msys. [i can't seem find on wxwiki/wxwidget official book/anywhere else] i have compiled wxwidget instructions have provided (using msys). from searching on internet seems 1 can (maybe?) through use of makefile (is correct?) if yes: directory & how should link wx libraries in makefile if no: way besides makefile? i know can use ide's code::block , make life simpler prefer compile using command prompt/msys. thanks in advance.
