Re: Quartz Composer blurs large images



Can you not use the "image with string" object?
This does seem to work a little better in terms of smooth
text.

Hi everybody - new to the list as I've just started using Quartz Composer in a bit more depth than I have before.


I am trying to feed a rather large image to a QC composition, and I'm surprised by the degradation that occurs while displaying the image with a Billboard patch set to width 2.0:

In the example above the image dimensions are 431 wide by 5307. The original image is available here:

The degradation doesn't occur until the height of the image reaches a certain threshold. If I increase the height yet further it becomes even more degraded in QC.

Is there someway I can coerce QC into handling this size of image with a bit more grace? For some perspective on what I'm doing I'm trying to map the contents of an arbitrarily long styled text editor into a QC composition. If QC had built-in styled text rendering I would do it that way, but as far as I can tell converting to an image may be my only choice.

I really appreciate your help!
