I would recommend you fix the typo in the title — it will be next to impossible to find this filter in the library.

Oops (at least I got it right in the keywords)! Thank you GMM for fixing the filter comments!

Nice. Where was this when I was making GasGiantGen?

I recently updated this filter. See the description/update notes for what changed.
Here's one way I'm using this filter, as well as another library filter of mine: ![]() |

Hummm... So.... it can make seamless images, but it gets in trouble if the image is not squared, no matter if I choose seamless or not.
Changing the If settings to A=B, it works with non-squared pictures, but seamless doesn't work anymore. |

Ramlyn, thanks for testing the filter. I am already aware:
At first glance, this may look easy to fix. However, I already had to do some complicated stuff in order to get seamless tiling at all. The previous version of this filter did NOT have seamless tiling. The Bomber+, introduced in FF5, made it possible. See the annotations in the filter editor: "All between Center X/Y and the assemble RGB is to allow for seamless tiling." If I find a solution, I'll update the filter. ![]() |

This is not exactly the same as the problems found in the following threads, but read these about Bomber+ and the Particle Adapter. It is my opinion that this is related to the known issues with Bomber+ and non-square images.
Several links: [Suggestion] Particle Cropping Warning is unnecessary for Bomber+ [bug] bomber+ has image aspect issues (Staff: By design) I would post this as a bug. Very annoying and I don't think there is a workaround for your filter. The first clue that something is wrong is when you change the X/Y anchor in the final Rotate in your filter. If you put it on Image Bounds, it "mangles" the results. Math meets art meets psychedelia. |

Thanks Indigo Ray and Rick Duim.
![]() --------- For Indigo Ray : I saw the "Now with Seamless Tiling! But keep the image square.", but I thought it was about the seamless option only. Anyway no problem. ![]() --------- For Rick Duim : Yes, I saw it too. When I change to Image Bounds, the swirls become messed. It may be something not ok in the Bomber+ I noticed that also with other components, when we change the XY Anchor, the result is not exactly what we would expect ( or maybe not the best option ). In general FF seems to work better with squared images. |

Few things:
-You're right Ramlyn. Poor phrasing by me. -I can add a bypass checkbox so that it works for any dimensions when seamless tiling is off. I don't think I can have the filter do it automatically. -In FF, seamless tiling only works with integer aspect ratios. For example, a 300x600 image has a ratio of 2. This is more accurate than saying "square". A yellow warning box should pop up otherwise. -I almost have it seamlessly tiling with other integer aspect ratios besides 1 (square). Almost. -I don't think there is any bug here. But I feel like there could be a simpler solution, like an XY Anchor for the Bomber+ (which would apply to some of the slave components). |
