Contributing a colour scheme
|
||||
============================
|
||||
|
||||
Glad to hear you've made a colour scheme to use with [MATLAB Schemer]!
|
||||
Thanks for sharing this with us.
|
||||
|
||||
Please only add one colour scheme per pull request.
|
||||
If you have multiple colorschemes to add, make a pull request for each of them.
|
||||
|
||||
The Schemer README includes some
|
||||
[advice on creating a colour scheme][scheme creation advice], which you might
|
||||
find useful.
|
||||
|
||||
It is preferable to include a screenshot demonstrating an example of your new MATLAB theme.
|
||||
To make your screenshot:
|
||||
|
||||
- Load your color scheme `schemer_import('yourscheme.prf', 1)`
|
||||
- Exit MATLAB `exit();`
|
||||
- Reopen MATLAB
|
||||
- Open the [matlab-schemer/develop/sample.m] file and take a screenshot with your favourite screenshot program.
|
||||
- If not done at capture time, crop the screenshot down to the right size with your [favourite image editor].
|
||||
- Make sure the screenshot is saved in [matlab-schemes/screenshots] as `yourscheme.png`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are on Linux, you can follow the method below to create your screenshot,
|
||||
which is mostly automated and produces the same output every time.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Reproducible screenshot workflow for Linux
|
||||
------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Here is minimal-interaction workflow for Linux users, which will create the
|
||||
same screenshots every time.
|
||||
This has been tested on Ubuntu 15.10 with MATLAB 2016a, but should work on
|
||||
any *nix OS and any MATLAB version since R2012b (which introduced the
|
||||
toolstrip UI).
|
||||
|
||||
The code blocks must be run from the system shell, not at the MATLAB command
|
||||
prompt.
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Setup**
|
||||
|
||||
Define these variables appropriately.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Set this variable appropriately, without extension
|
||||
SCHEME_NAME='yourschemename'
|
||||
# Set the path to your copy of MATLAB Schemer
|
||||
PATH_TO_SCHEMER='../matlab-schemer/'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Load scheme**
|
||||
|
||||
Run this code block to load the scheme, restart MATLAB, and edit
|
||||
`sample.m`.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Remove extension, if present
|
||||
SCHEME_NAME=${SCHEME_NAME%.prf}
|
||||
echo "Making screenshot for scheme $SCHEME_NAME";
|
||||
# Load the template and restart matlab
|
||||
matlab -r "addpath(genpath('$PATH_TO_SCHEMER')); schemer_import('$SCHEME_NAME.prf',1); exit;";
|
||||
# Edit the sample.m file
|
||||
matlab -r "edit(fullfile('$PATH_TO_SCHEMER','develop','sample.m'))" &
|
||||
# What next
|
||||
echo "Now undock sample.m, and highlight middle scaleFactor";
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Undock sample.m editor**
|
||||
|
||||
Either
|
||||
- in MATLAB GUI, undock `sample.m` only
|
||||
|
||||
Or
|
||||
- in MATLAB GUI, undock the Editor panel
|
||||
- move tabs to bottom, if more than one file is being editted
|
||||
|
||||
Also, make sure the MATLAB toolstrip is visible on the undocked panel.
|
||||
If it is minimised, right-click on the toolstrip and restore it.
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Highlight**
|
||||
|
||||
Highlight the middle instance of `scaleFactor` (on line 18).
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Resize window and take screenshot**
|
||||
|
||||
Run this code block to resize the editor window and take a screenshot,
|
||||
cropped with ImageMagick.
|
||||
|
||||
The crop location is correct for MATLAB 2016a.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check for a window for the develop/sample.m file
|
||||
if wmctrl -l | grep -q develop/sample.m
|
||||
then
|
||||
WINDOW_NAME='develop/sample.m';
|
||||
else
|
||||
# If it's not there, use the Editor window
|
||||
WINDOW_NAME='Editor';
|
||||
fi
|
||||
if wmctrl -l | grep -qv "$WINDOW_NAME"
|
||||
then
|
||||
echo "Window $WINDOW_NAME is absent";
|
||||
else
|
||||
# Resize the window
|
||||
wmctrl -r "$WINDOW_NAME" -e 0,100,100,700,650;
|
||||
# Try getting screenshot with Imagemagick, and cropping it down to the
|
||||
# just the relevant section
|
||||
wmctrl -a "$WINDOW_NAME"; sleep 0.1; import -window root -crop 700x379+100+249 +repage "${SCHEME_NAME}.png";
|
||||
# Inspect the result
|
||||
xdg-open "${SCHEME_NAME}.png";
|
||||
# Is it cropped correctly?
|
||||
echo "How does it look? If no good, try one of the other options to manually crop";
|
||||
fi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
6. If screenshot cropped incorrectly, **manually crop screenshot**
|
||||
|
||||
If the ImageMagick crop is not aligned correctly,
|
||||
- Either use gnome-screenshot for the whole window, and then crop in GIMP
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
wmctrl -a "$WINDOW_NAME" \
|
||||
&& gnome-screenshot -w -f "$SCHEME_NAME.png" \
|
||||
&& gimp "$SCHEME_NAME.png";
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Or use gnome-screenshot to select the area to use (which is likely to
|
||||
be less precise).
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
wmctrl -a "$WINDOW_NAME" && gnome-screenshot -a -f "$SCHEME_NAME.png";
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
7. When you are happy, **move** the final copy into the screenshots folder
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
mv "$SCHEME_NAME.png" screenshots/"$SCHEME_NAME.png";
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Incorporating into MATLAB Schemer
|
||||
---------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've added the new scheme to this repository, it will be merged into
|
||||
[MATLAB Schemer] using [git-subtree].
|
||||
If you are merging it into Schemer yourself, please consult this
|
||||
[step-by-step guide](https://github.com/scottclowe/matlab-schemer/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#adding-a-new-colour-scheme).
