Please use appropriate color components

Hi GMM.
Thank you for your comments.

I used contrasted noise as it was the only way I could find to get round the squarised problem.

I could not use a Color Control or any Assemble components because they ‘wrap round’ and would not give me the frame edge. Also I could not use gradients because they are square.

Contrasted noise was the only way I could find to give a frame edge which extends the full length of a rectangular image.
I did intend to update these when we get a ‘Bomber Rectangle’ but until then I cannot see another way to make rectangular frames. (Square frames are easy using gradients)

If you can show us a better way I would be most interested.

Ken.

Hi Crapadilla.

Thanks, Yes I have tried that but using that code only makes a frame as big as the shortest side of the image and then it repeats.
The only workaround I could find was to use contrasted noise as that is not squareified like the gradients are.

I did update my method in

Framed Patterned by Ken
and

Edges by Ken

where only one side of the rectangle needs adjustment

If the only downside of using perlin noise is that some variations make the frame disappear then I think this disadvantage is far outweighed by the advantage that the code works on rectangular images

I discussed this problem with Vladimir Here
and here

So as soon as there is another method I will update them but in the meantime I think using Perlin noise is the best workaround.

It would also help if we could find the original image size (or at least its orientation) from within FF

I agree.
