Can a script command be added that hides all the buttons, but still retains their functionality?
How would that work? Make them invisible but you can still click?

Yes this would pretty much be how it would work. They'd probably become visible again when in the settings or help menus, but then become invisible when quitting out of them.

Also viewonly would just disable options linked to playback and editing, so zooming and stuff would still be possible.

What are you trying to achieve?

Mainly to keep consistency and continue the trend of disabled/unusable buttons and sliders appearing grey instead of disappearing entirely. I can see why it might be undesirable to have the buttons present, though, so the new script command would hide all the (disabled, at least) buttons and granting a clearer view of the pattern.

On the topic of disabled buttons and sliders, I think it would be a good idea for a corresponding error message to be displayed upon attempting to use them explaining why they can't be used.

Some more aliases have been added to catagolue: https://gitlab.com/apgoucher/catagolue/ ... s/41/diffs

Some questions:
- For margolus rules which birth a non-0000 or non-1111 cell arrangement for 0000, can they be supported on bounded grids?

Code: Select all

x = 20, y = 12, rule = M14,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,0,15:T160,160
4b6o4b6o11$6o4b6o!

- Will infinite bounded grids be supported for HROT rules?

Code: Select all

x = 1, y = 4, rule = B3/S28:T0,4
o$o$o$o!

Code: Select all

x = 1, y = 4, rule = R1,C2,S2,8,B3,NM:T0,4
o$o$o$o!

The Sticky rule seems to not be displaying a viewer option despite its wiki page having both @TABLE and @TREE sections.

It's because both sections in the rule were invalid so LifeViewer ignored the rule.

The @TREE section was missing some entries.

The @TABLE section had a syntax LifeViewer didn't like. Some var assignments were missing the equals (=) sign:
var a{0,1,2,3} rather than var a={0,1,2,3}.

I've fixed both issues on the Wiki.

I was just looking for an example of a use of PASTET to fit a long single-channel recipe into LifeViewer's relatively small grid.

Here's a sample pattern that I'm fairly sure was working last September 23rd, but it isn't any more. Did something change that means I should update the script? I'm also seeing some other odd behavior here, like the viewer popping up mostly off the screen at first, then getting corrected if I resize the window.

Code: Select all

x = 1, y = 1, rule = B3/S23

I was just looking for an example of a use of PASTET to fit a long single-channel recipe into LifeViewer's relatively small grid.

This has been fixed. Thanks for reporting!

Is this how it's supposed to work?
Why does the text appear immediately? Am I doing something wrong?

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B3/S23
b2o$2o$bo!
[[
PAUSE 1 "Foo"
T 100 "This text is supposed to \n appear at generation 100." 
T 500 "...and this text at \n generation 500..."

I get confused by that all the time, too. The way to think about T values and labels is that each label is going to be displayed until the time specified by that waypoint. So you want something like

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B3/S23
b2o$2o$bo!
[[
PAUSE 1 "Text displayed while\npausing for 1 second..."
T 100 "Foo"
T 500 "This text is supposed to \n appear at generation 100."
T 9999  "...and this text at \n generation 500..."
]]

How do I simulate the repeat script mentioned in User:GUYTU6J/Repeat with lifeviewer commands? For instance I want to make the stream of gliders in the first example:

Code: Select all

x = 122, y = 60, rule = B3/S23

!

PASTET EVERY does half of the job; now I need a command telling Lifeviewer to paste with spatial offset (5,-2) between each paste.

Code: Select all

x = 0, y = 0, rule = B3/S23
!
#C [[ PASTET EVERY 1 0 25 PASTE bo$2bo$3o!  ]]

EDIT: The wiki page title got renamed

Use the new [[ PASTEDELTA X Y ]] command:

Code: Select all

x = 0, y = 0, rule = B3/S23
!
#C [[ PASTEDELTA 5 -2 PASTET EVERY 1 0 25 PASTE bo$2bo$3o! ]]

But, it didn’t work well. Try it.

You need to hard-refresh the browser to get the new version. On Chrome it's Ctrl-F5.

Thanks! But is it that "PASTE rle" only understands 2-state rles? I see that the following example is not pasting LifeHistory state-3 cells:

Code: Select all

x = 0, y = 0, rule = LifeHistory
!
#C [[ AUTOFIT GPS 5 PASTEDELTA 5 -2 PASTET EVERY 1 0 25 PASTE .C$2.C$3C! STOP 25 ]]

For [R]History rules [[ PASTE ]] only uses 2-states. For RuleTree/RuleTable and PCA rules [[ PASTE ]] uses all states.
The [R]History support may improve in the future but it's not planned at the moment.

Oh, okay.
Stepping back by clicking the previous generation button after stopping at gen 200, defects appear suddenly. Especially gen 191 and gen 127. Is that because of XOR-pasting mode?

Can you modify hexagonal rotation so it's 60 deg instead of 90?

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 4, rule = B2/S34H

It's on the backlog but I don't know when I'll get to it. Thanks for the request.

Can lifeviewer be made to print the space/catagolue symmetry of an identified pattern, since it can already output the time symmetry under Mod?

For example, this would be identified as C1:

Code: Select all

 x = 4, y = 4, rule = B3/S23
2o$obo$2bo$2b2o!

and this D8_1:

Code: Select all

 x = 13, y = 13, rule = B3/S23
2b3o3b3o2$o4bobo4bo$o4bobo4bo$o4bobo4bo$2b3o3b3o2$2b3o3b3o$o4bobo4bo$o

It works now. There were comment lines not marked by comment characters, so the text was being interpreted as part of the rule lines.
