Import and Export Guide

The Import and Export features are added in 24/07/2023, which allow users to share their own patterns in a efficient ways.

A default patterns data will be like the following

{
  "rows": 5,
  "cols": 5,
  "paddingRows": 80,
  "paddingCols": 80,
  "shitfRows": 0,
  "shitfCols": 0,
  "density": 80,
  "shapeSize": 25,
  "shapes": "Ellipse",
  "textContent": "",
  "color": "#FFFFFF",
  "randomMode": false,
  "randomDensity": 0.5,
  "rotation": 0,
  "effectsMode": "Null",
  "effectsConfig": {
    "color": "#FFFFFF",
    "intensity": 1,
    "layers": 6
  },
  "flatten": false
}

Here's the regarding types

export interface ShapesGenData {

    // How many object will be generate reagrding x and y
    rows: number, // >= 1 , y axis
    cols: number, // >= 1 , x axis

    // Padding of x and y
    paddingRows: number, // >= 1
    paddingCols: number, // >= 1

    // Added in 27/02/2024
    // For even rows / cols, the whole line will be shift x spacing
    shitfRows: number,
    shitfCols: number,

    // Padding of both x and y
    density: number, // >= 1

    // Shape Size
    shapeSize: number, // >= 1

    // Final shapes 
    shapes: "Ellipse" | "Rectangle" | "Polygon" | "Star" | "Text" | "Star-4" | "Line" | "Ellipse-half" | "Ellipse-one-four",

    // Angle of all object 
    rotation?: number, // 180 to -180

    // Color of all object
    color?: string, // e.g. #FF4301

    // If shapes === "Text", it shoule contains a textContent
    textContent?: string 

    // If true, the patterns generate will be in random, and "randomDensity" needs to be settle
    randomMode?: boolean 
    randomDensity?: 0.1 | 0.2 | 0.3 | 0.4 | 0.5 | 0.6 | 0.7 | 0.8 | 0.9 | 1 // For random number
    
    // If effectsMode == "Glow", the "effectsConfig" needs to be settle
    effectsMode?:  "Null" | "Glow"
    effectsConfig?: null | {
        color: string,
        intensity: number,
        layers: number
    }

    // Will the final patterns be flatten
    flatten?: boolean,
}

In the Patterns, you will see the Import and Export buttons at the top left sections. Yet, you will also see the Export Shapes items in both Template and Favourite menu.

By clicking the Copy to Board icon, you may export the shapes JSON and share to the Import functions.
