A new (?) topic and question. Does anybody know if there is an 

existing method to compute the single curve / contour containing all 

the objects of a binary image ? I've searched the Examples patches 

and forum, also the cv.jit helps, but I didn't find it.

In what format would you need that contour? A box, an oval, a set of lines?

So yea.. implementing Graham's algorithm with Jitter objects doesn't seem like a good idea and I don't think someone already wrote an external. You'd have to code your own. Since there are many code examples out there, that looks doable.

many moons ago we used this.built from scratch by Roman K. a talented coder i met. 

the idea was based on a remark by Nesa about the possibility of checking collision using alpha masks.

this gives the benefit of working with organic shapes of all forms and shapes, and is very responsive.

the code is java. check it out... and now on youtube (

expand, clean, rinse, use and share.


you need to compile the java, its only source.

the key3.jxf is part of the [ketstone2] subpatch, you can reset it by sending a bang to [send resetKeyst2] or just delete the whole subpatch if you dont need to correct the projection.

attached is key3 and the compiled source

it looks like it's looking for python version 2.5.

yes, that makes sense. I *think* python 2.5 is shipped with the apple

development tools?? but not 100% sure..

there is a max object whose make convexhull process now ???

in the same way there is an object whose can give surface area of 2D point projection ?
