Kirill has been busy lately updating Substance with new features, a recent post on his blog shows button shapers in action. Suddenly realized that supporting those shapes in GraphicsBuilder would be quite easy, and so graphicsbuilder-ext-substance was born. Here is a sample image



Once the shapers were wrapped with a ShapeGraphicsOperation (actually just one shaper was required) the rest of the work was just wiring property aliases. Here is the code that produced the image
antialias on dolphinShape( x: 10, y: 10, w: 120, h: 80, borderColor: no ){ gradientPaint( x2:0, y2: 50, c2: 'blue' ) } rhinoShape( x: 140, y: 10, w: 120, h: 80, bc: no ){ gradientPaint( x2:0, y2: 50, c2: 'darkGreen' ) } raceCarShape( x: 35, y: 90, w: 200, h: 80, bc: no ){ linearGradient( x2: 0, y2: 50 ) { stop( s: 0, c: 'yellow' ) stop( s: 0.6, c: 'red' ) stop( s: 0.9, c: 'black' ) } }
You can find other goodies in the Substance Extras pack, like fractal flames. Imagine a filter based on those

Keep on Groovying!
