Bob,

One more suggestion:

Because there is no "brickwall"-structure in your MLCad results, it might not be
such a bad idea to alternately read lines from left to right and from right to
left.
In my program I also have something like this:

For I = 0 to LastRow
  For J = 0 to LastColumn
     read pixel(I,J)
     ...
  Next J
Next I

Should become something like this:

For I = 0 to LastRow
  If (I mod 2 = 0) Then
    For J = 0 to LastColumn
       read pixel(I,J)
       ...
    Next J
  Else
    For J = LastColumn to 0 step -1
       read pixel(I,J)
       ...
    Next J
  End If
Next I

If I do this while converting an image with the dithering process, I often get
lousy results. But if you use it in the second fase (conversion to MLCad -
piececount), it may be satisfying.

(...) Thanks for this suggestion. that way i wont get colums of bricks all the same size and the layers will be more interlocked. great idea! bob (19 years ago, 10-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic)

Is it efficient to replace plates w/bricks in a plates studs up mosaic? I always thought it was and have been trying to think of a way to implement it in Bricksaic for about a year. I was trying to come up with a smart and efficient way of doing it. (...) (19 years ago, 2-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)
