How do I place images in a rotatable divided cube using Java?

Hello- I am creating a puzzle that is like the "Rubik's Cube,"
although this puzzle is played on the computer monitor, and the puzzle
involves images placed on the sides of a cube. The mouse is used to
rotate the sides of the cube. Each side of the cube is divided into
three sections.
The code for the basic puzzle has been written by another person. The
link to the puzzle created by this person (including links to the
program files or source files) may be found at:
http://www.geocities.com/jaapsch/puzzles/cubie.htm
My goal is to create a puzzle (using Jaap's code or script) whereby I
will be able to place one of my photographs on each side of the puzzle
cube (6 different photos per cube). The goal is to rotate the sides so
that the photos are put together correctly.
I have been in contact via email with the puzzle's author, Jaap
Scherphuis, and he emailed me that I can use his puzzle's code or
script (whichever it is), and place my photos in the puzzle. In return,
Jaap would like to get the code or script that is created. When I spoke
with Jaap by email several months ago he told me he was too busy to
help me at that time.
So, I am looking for a person to help me create a situation whereby I
will be able to include my photographs on the sides of the puzzle with
the images divided on each side and rotatable.
I am interested in learning how to write the code (or script) myself so
I am able to include different photos.
Please let me know if you might offer any assistance.
Thank you,
Jeff Klamer

p.s. Please see my photo galleries to enjoy some of the images I am working with.

How to upload Image to MDM 5.5 SP3 using Java APIs

Hi,
I am trying to upload Image to Images table in MDM 5.5 using JAVA API for MDM. But. I'm not able to find particular field in Images table where I need to set the Blob object ( Image data ).
I'm not aware of the method to set the Blob, there is one for getting the Image data.
I have gone through I am not able to add images into Catalog thru java API forums posts and tried the code. But with no luck....
I think this code is for some other MDM version as the fields mentioned are not present in the Images table e.g. DataObject - this field is used in the above posts to set the Blob data but this field does not exist in Images table in MDM 5.5
Can anyone suggest the solution?
Thanks and Regards,
Mausam

Hi Mausam,
Please try the following:
// adding to a image table
// get the bytes for the image
byte[] imageBuf = readFile("C:\pic.bmp");
// setup A2iFields
fields = new A2iFields();
fields.Add(new A2iField("DataObject", new
Value(imageBuf))); // the image binary (required)
fields.Add(new A2iField("Name", new Value("pic.bmp")));
// a name for the image
fields.Add(new A2iField("OrigName", new
Value("pic.bmp"))); // the original image file name
(required)
fields.Add(new A2iField("DataGroupId", new Value(888)));
// the data group to add to (required)
fields.Add(new A2iField("OrigLocationId", new
Value(999))); // the data location of the image
(required)
fields.Add(new A2iField("Description", new Value("a
short description"))); // a short description here
// add the image
String imageTable = "Images";
catalog.AddRecord(imageTable, fields, -1, -1);
It's taken out of the API guide for SP3 (the example for method AddRecord.
Best regards,
Amit

Uploading images whit thumbnail to MDM repository using Java API

Hello,
can someone tell me how to upload images whit thumbnail to MDM repository using Java API?
i get following message using setHasThumbnail(true):

You can upload images to MDM via the API, but the only way to create thumbnails is via the MDM Data Manager application which uses some embedded libraries to do the work.

Document xmlDoc;
Node rows = (Node) xmlDoc.createElement("ROWS");

Have you considered using JDOM? ( www.jdom.org )
The XMLOutputter class can write the Document to a file. ( The Document however will be an org.jdom.Document object ).
If you are weary of a new API, you could just create a new File object called abc.xml and stream the data from the XML Document you have to this new File object.

Image resize : loss of quality by using Java API. What's wrong ?

We actually have a problem with the resizing of pictures.
We use jdk 1.4.2.
We are trying to transform some picture from approx. 2000*1600 to 500*400.
The result is poor (loss of colors, blur ...)
We use an affineTransform and some renderingHints.
There is actually no effect when we change the renderingHints parameters. Why ?
Here's the code we use:
import java.awt.geom.AffineTransform;
import java.awt.image.*;
import java.io.*;
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Jpeg
    public Jpeg()
    // i = la largeur de l'image redimensionner
    // s = le chemin d'acces � l'image original
    // s1 = le chemin d'acces � l'image retaill�e
    public boolean resize(int i, String s, String s1)
       try
            File file = new File(s);
            File file1 = new File(s1);
            //Parametrage de la lecture
            ImageIO.setUseCache (true);
            BufferedImage src = ImageIO.read(file);
            double d = src.getWidth();
            double d1 = src.getHeight();
            double d2 = i;
            double d3 = d2 / d;
            if(d1 * d3 > d2)
                d3 = d2 / d1;
            if(d3 > 0.8D)
                d3 = 1.0D;
            int j = (int)(d * d3);
            int k = (int)(d1 * d3);
         AffineTransform tx = new AffineTransform ();
            tx.scale (d3, d3);
            RenderingHints rh = new RenderingHints (RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING, RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
            rh.put (RenderingHints.KEY_ALPHA_INTERPOLATION, RenderingHints.VALUE_ALPHA_INTERPOLATION_QUALITY);
            rh.put (RenderingHints.KEY_COLOR_RENDERING, RenderingHints.VALUE_COLOR_RENDER_QUALITY);
            rh.put (RenderingHints.KEY_INTERPOLATION, RenderingHints.VALUE_INTERPOLATION_BICUBIC);
            rh.put (RenderingHints.KEY_RENDERING, RenderingHints.VALUE_RENDER_QUALITY);

            BufferedImage      biNew = new BufferedImage (j, k, src.getType ());
            op.filter(src, biNew);
            ImageIO.write (biNew, "jpg", new File (s1));
        catch (Exception e)
            e.printStackTrace ();
            return false;
        return true;
    public static void main(String args[])
        Jpeg jpeg = new Jpeg();
        jpeg.resize (Integer.parseInt (args [0]), args[1], args[2]);
}Here's the original picture http://193.252.12.20/bugimage/14457.jpg
Here's the resized picture http://193.252.12.20/bugimage/bur.jpg
Here's the paintshop pro resized picture http://193.252.12.20/bugimage/psp.jpg
Is there another way to resize pictures ?
Can we have a better result by using jdk 1.5.0 ?
Thanks for your help.

Nothing wrong - it's a feature :).
"Loss of colours" is connected with Java embedded JPEG decoder. If you transcode to for example PNG format using any image processing program and then resize using Java then colors will be OK.
"Blur..." is connected with bad implementation of interpolation algorithms in JDK/JRE and can't be fixed :)
I'm close to finish developing own resizing library which produced the next results from your image (it's a very good image to test). "from_png" means that the source image is PNG.
<b>Box interpolation</b> (also known as nearest neighbour, but it's the honest implementation, not JDK fake):

How do i place images using the Flipcard (images) - Andrew prototype library in Muse, How do i place images using the Flipcard (images) - Andrew prototype library in Muse

I am using the Andrew protoypes library. In it there are flipcards that i want to use to place images. How do i get to place images into these flipcards.

How can I place image across outside of booklet?

I am currently engaged in my annual task of designing a 24 page A5 booklet using folded A4 paper. All the internal portrait mode A5 pages (pages 2 - 23) are monochrome and have been created in InDesign CS6, while the colour outer cover (pages 1 and 24) has been designed as a single landscape A4 page in Adobe Illustrator CS6. This allows graphic images to flow seamlessly between the front cover and the back cover.
My normal practice has been to print this booklet myself, using an inkjet printer for the colour content and a mono laser printer for everything else. I print directly from Illustrator for the double-spread outer cover and use InDesign's 'Print Booklet' facility for all the internal pages.
This year, I am seriously considering getting the booklet produced by a commercial printer, who would use a colour laser printer for the entire booklet. I therefore want to merge the Illustrator artwork into my Indesign file so that I can generate a single PDF for sending to the print shop.
I'm guessing that there is a simple way to import the cover artwork into InDesign but, so far, I have been unable to find a way to place a file across pages 1 and 24. Any help would be much appreciated.
David

Yes, I confused my left with my right. I am indeed sticking with a conventional booklet reading direction!
On reflection, our processes are slightly different but both may have advantages in different situations. Unless there is some clever trick for placing an image in a specific place, your process would always require careful repositioning of the cover artwork on Page 1 before copying and Pasting in Place on Page 24. My method used Paste in Place on both Page 1 and Page 24 and no position adjustment was necessary. The disadvantage of my process (which I forgot when I claimed it was more efficient) is the necessity of the prior step required to copy the cover artwork image into the Windows clipboard.
I suspect you are now going to tell me an easy way to Place the image on Page 1 so that it preserves the same X/Y co-ordinates as it had in Illustrator ...

How to Add an image to an href link when using html

I am creating specific links that redirect to specific pages using java script and want to add an image instead of using text.   Here is an example of the anchor tag
<a href="***siteloklogout***">logout</a>
This is a logout function that redirects to the home page. Not sure how to attach an img. I have uploaded the image to the ftp but cannot get it to work.
Is there a way to attach links using the current hyperlink tool in Muse or is there a way to load the image asset into muse.

Hi CSchonhaut,
There are two ways that I can suggest.
     1. Apply the fire image to the rollover of the Menu Item,
     2. Use the Composition Widget - tooltip. Place the trigger on the hyperlink and target behind it, so that once you hover the trigger, target with the fire image in it pops up.
Hope that helps.

Place image icon onto a 3D cube

Hi, I am currently doing a project on 3D java. I have created 3D color cube and
i am planning to put movable image icon on the cube so that i can move the image
icon to anywhere on the cube. The color cube can be rotated, translated and
zoomable. Lastly, when the cube is being rotated,the image icon on the cube must
move together also.
i am currently stuck at the part where i dont know how to do the coding on
creating the image icon and when the cube is rotated, the image icon will move
also. Can you give me some sample code on doing that as this is my first time
using java 3D.
Below is the code that i use to create the cube.

Thank You all for your help.I apprepciate it.

Use a Box instead of the ColorCube.. This might give you a start.
To texture the Box, assuming you have extended Applet -
        java.net.URL texImage = null;// the URL of the image to load
     Appearance app = new Appearance();
     Texture tex = new TextureLoader(texImage, this).getTexture();
     app.setTexture(tex);
     TextureAttributes texAttr = new TextureAttributes();
     texAttr.setTextureMode(TextureAttributes.MODULATE);
     app.setTextureAttributes(texAttr);
     Box textureCube = new Box(0.4f, 0.4f, 0.4f,
                      Box.GENERATE_TEXTURE_COORDS, app);IMHO you will be well served by texturing a plane congruent in size with the sides of the cube and manipulating that using the coords of each side of a Box derived from Shape3D.getGeometry. Don`t forget to add a Light or two.
