Description

"Envelopes", aka functional bounding regions. See Diagrams.Core.Envelope for internal implementation details.

Synopsis

Types

data Envelope v n :: (* -> *) -> * -> *

Every diagram comes equipped with an envelope. What is an envelope?

Consider first the idea of a bounding box. A bounding box expresses the distance to a bounding plane in every direction parallel to an axis. That is, a bounding box can be thought of as the intersection of a collection of half-planes, two perpendicular to each axis.

More generally, the intersection of half-planes in every direction would give a tight "bounding region", or convex hull. However, representing such a thing intensionally would be impossible; hence bounding boxes are often used as an approximation.

An envelope is an extensional representation of such a "bounding region". Instead of storing some sort of direct representation, we store a function which takes a direction as input and gives a distance to a bounding half-plane as output. The important point is that envelopes can be composed, and transformed by any affine transformation.

Formally, given a vector v, the envelope computes a scalar s such that

  • for every point u inside the diagram, if the projection of (u - origin) onto v is s' *^ v, then s' <= s.
  • s is the smallest such scalar.

There is also a special "empty envelope".

The idea for envelopes came from Sebastian Setzer; see http://byorgey.wordpress.com/2009/10/28/collecting-attributes/#comment-2030.

Instances

Show (Envelope v n) 
Ord n => Semigroup (Envelope v n) 
Ord n => Monoid (Envelope v n) 
(Metric v, OrderedField n) => Juxtaposable (Envelope v n) 
(Metric v, OrderedField n) => Enveloped (Envelope v n) 
(Metric v, Floating n) => Transformable (Envelope v n) 
(Metric v, Fractional n) => HasOrigin (Envelope v n)

The local origin of an envelope is the point with respect to which bounding queries are made, i.e. the point from which the input vectors are taken to originate.

Wrapped (Envelope v n) 
(Metric v, OrderedField n) => Alignable (Envelope v n) 
Rewrapped (Envelope v n) (Envelope v' n') 
type V (Envelope v n) = v 
type N (Envelope v n) = n 
type Unwrapped (Envelope v n) = Option (v n -> Max n) 

class (Metric (V a), OrderedField (N a)) => Enveloped a

Enveloped abstracts over things which have an envelope.

Instances

Enveloped b => Enveloped [b] 
Enveloped b => Enveloped (Set b) 
Enveloped t => Enveloped (TransInv t) 
Enveloped a => Enveloped (Located a)

The envelope of a Located a is the envelope of the a, translated to the location.

The envelope for a segment is based at the segment's start.

(Metric v, OrderedField n) => Enveloped (Trail' l v n)

The envelope for a trail is based at the trail's start.

(Metric v, OrderedField n, Monoid' m) => Enveloped (QDiagram b v n m) 
(OrderedField n, Metric v, Monoid' m) => Enveloped (Subdiagram b v n m) 

Diagram envelopes

envelope :: (OrderedField n, Metric v, Monoid' m) => Lens' (QDiagram b v n m) (Envelope v n)

Lens onto the Envelope of a QDiagram.

setEnvelope :: (OrderedField n, Metric v, Monoid' m) => Envelope v n -> QDiagram b v n m -> QDiagram b v n m

Replace the envelope of a diagram.

withEnvelope :: (InSpace v n a, Metric v, OrderedField n, Monoid' m, Enveloped a) => a -> QDiagram b v n m -> QDiagram b v n m

Use the envelope from some object as the envelope for a diagram, in place of the diagram's default envelope.

sqNewEnv =
    circle 1 # fc green
    |||
    (    c # dashingG [0.1,0.1] 0 # lc white
      <> square 2 # withEnvelope (c :: D V2 Double) # fc blue
    )
c = circle 0.8
withEnvelopeEx = sqNewEnv # centerXY # pad 1.5

phantom :: (InSpace v n a, Monoid' m, Enveloped a, Traced a) => a -> QDiagram b v n m

phantom x produces a "phantom" diagram, which has the same envelope and trace as x but produces no output.

pad :: (Metric v, OrderedField n, Monoid' m) => n -> QDiagram b v n m -> QDiagram b v n m

pad s "pads" a diagram, expanding its envelope by a factor of s (factors between 0 and 1 can be used to shrink the envelope). Note that the envelope will expand with respect to the local origin, so if the origin is not centered the padding may appear "uneven". If this is not desired, the origin can be centered (using, e.g., centerXY for 2D diagrams) before applying pad.

extrudeEnvelope :: (Metric v, OrderedField n, Monoid' m) => v n -> QDiagram b v n m -> QDiagram b v n m

extrudeEnvelope v d asymmetrically "extrudes" the envelope of a diagram in the given direction. All parts of the envelope within 90 degrees of this direction are modified, offset outwards by the magnitude of the vector.

This works by offsetting the envelope distance proportionally to the cosine of the difference in angle, and leaving it unchanged when this factor is negative.

intrudeEnvelope :: (Metric v, OrderedField n, Monoid' m) => v n -> QDiagram b v n m -> QDiagram b v n m

intrudeEnvelope v d asymmetrically "intrudes" the envelope of a diagram away from the given direction. All parts of the envelope within 90 degrees of this direction are modified, offset inwards by the magnitude of the vector.

Note that this could create strange inverted envelopes, where diameter v d < 0 .

Querying envelopes

envelopeVMay :: Enveloped a => Vn a -> a -> Maybe (Vn a)

Compute the vector from the local origin to a separating hyperplane in the given direction, or Nothing for the empty envelope.

envelopeV :: Enveloped a => Vn a -> a -> Vn a

diameter :: ((~) (* -> *) (V a) v, (~) * (N a) n, Enveloped a) => v n -> a -> n

Compute the diameter of a enveloped object along a particular vector. Returns zero for the empty envelope.

radius :: ((~) (* -> *) (V a) v, (~) * (N a) n, Enveloped a) => v n -> a -> n
