I noticed that you posted a PNG file for the forum… does the Amaziograph app have an option to output vectors, or only bitmaps?

Don’t have my ipad with me, but I’m pretty sure it’s only bitmaps. Still fun to play with… I also use Capture (my profile pic is a vectorization it generated).

PNG.
you have the option to
Export RAW images: Include transparent areas in saved images, for use in photo editing software.
High resolution artwork: Turn off for better performance, but lower resolution. The setting applies for all drawings.

Screen shot of patterns you can pick from.

Yes, it does trace the drawing and vectorize it. That was the main reason I got it about a year ago, but I thought I found out about it on here somewhere back then.

Love it, can’t wait to really explore its potential. Haha it’s very possible Adobe Capture was mentioned waaaay back and I just completely overlooked it :smile:

Maybe this is the right place to ask this question. I was taught this optical illusion drawing thing awhile ago and I don’t know if it has a specific name. You draw a circle, and then you put “points” on the circle at regular intervals around the edge (I’ve found every 15 degrees or so works great), and then you draw a line from each point to every other point. If you are precise, the finished product looks like half of a 3D ball with concentric circles going out from the center.

Does anyone know what this is called? Or if it even has a name?

Are you talking about sort of the inverse of this?

I remember doing this when I should’ve been doing x-y intercepts in math class. :relaxed: - Rich

While I do those kinds of drawings as well, this is what I was trying to describe.

SO many possibilities with this, if you only connect the lines in the middle, the outside edges, middle third etc… I’m planning on making a bunch of coasters (and other things) with these kinds of designs.

@dwardio Yeah, that is showing the kinds of things I was hoping to do with this. I didn’t know that someone already wrote up any kind of tutorial for it already.

In a similar vein, has anyone clicked on Amaziograph’s Related tab in the app store? Some additional iPad apps that might be worth checking out…

iOrnament ($3.99) touts Apple Pencil support for those sporting an iPad Pro and 3D Touch on the newer iPhones.

KaleidoPaint (freeware) GNU license, avail on iOS and Android

The list gets even longer. Type “Spirograph” in the app store search.

I just got an Android 6.0 Marshmallow tablet. One of the first things I tried to install on it was Adobe Capture but Google Play is telling me it’s not compatible with my device. Has anyone else seen that? Any suggestions? Thanks!

I really enjoyed looking at the various methods to draw the eclipse and the cardioid :grin:

I just did some research and answered my own question. Adobe Capture is not currently supported on Android tablets but will hopefully be soon.
