Dear developers, I am now more or less finished with my plugin which draws spectrograms from audio signals. It takes about 30 seconds to draw 750 × 1200 pixels on my 3Ghz. Is that slow or fast? The code that does the drawing is this one: gboolean s; guint8 pixel[] = { 0x00 }; double d; for (int n = 0; n < data->width; n++) { for (int m = 0; m < data->height; m++) { /* make coef_db start from zero */ d = (data->coef_db)[m+n*data->M] + data->coef_db_min; /* quantize so values are from 0 to 255 */ /* The absolut value of min is added to max */ pixel[0] = quantize(d, fabs(data->coef_db_min) + data->coef_db_max); /* set the pixel */ /* coef_db have x=0,y=0 at buttom left corner and gimp have 0,0 at top left corner */ s = gimp_drawable_set_pixel(data->layer, n, data->height - m, 1, (guint8 *)pixel ); } } data->display = gimp_display_new(data->image); ... /* quantize double to 8bit int */ unsigned char quantize(double d, double max) { return (unsigned char)((d / max) * 255.0); } Hugs, Louise _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
