    How about a ruby to apply a 3D texture/component?

      Related to work on ImageProfile2 (oops, spilled the beans), I have deciphered the PNG spec and can now read the PNG image data in Ruby (unfortunately, it is PC only until I also decipher the deflate/inflate algorithm).

      While that may seem off-topic, it does have a direct correlation - an earlier thread discussed the possibility of a Ruby to create bump maps from SketchUp models (which I'm working on when I can). But it is conceivable that with some work, I could create a Ruby to turn a bump map texture into real geometry, just like this thread requests.

        Whaaah? You did? I was looking at the PNG, GIF and JPEG specs when I was making a thumbnail server in PHP once. That was not light material.

          That's why Rick has been so quiet lately - he's been locked down in his basement for the last 6 months deciphering image formats. Way to go Rick!

              LOL - you're not too far off. Between heavy (and sometimes overlapping) deadlines at my day job, literally being in my basement deciphering the PNG format (and hopefully soon the inflate/deflate algorithm), and trying not to neglect my family (which will be increasing by one in November), I've been rather quiet here.

              Oh, and next week, I'll be at the Google I/O conference with Todd. If anyone else is attending, stop by our Developer Sandbox booth and say "hi"!

                  You guys are both coming out for that? I was going to sign up but I couldn't find anyone coming out, so I thought I'd pass.

                  I'll go over and harass the both of you now! Plan on seeing me at some point 😄

                      All faces of the same area, connected or disconnected. For example, let's say you had alternating big and little squares and you wanted to select all the big squares at the same time, then use joint push pull, if that makes sense.

                        Thanks! It was quite unexpected, but also very welcome.
