I'm completely at a dead end with this one. The math is over my head. But I'm sure it's not that complexe to achieve but still I'm not able to.

I want to use the traditional snorm & jit.gl.multiple. to have dynamic scaling control on

what I would call "subdivision square tiling" like the picture below demonstrates.

http://www.squaring.net/history_theory/gfx/figure71.png

Basically, notice that there is a master square and inside there are subdivisions.

below you'll find a patch where you'll see that as you dynamically increase the dim size of the position matrix,

the [snormscale] automatically scales/spreads the planes as they are automatically scaled down in size.

Scaling formula : very simple: 1. divided by the matrix dim size for scale .

Now what I would love to do is put a [jit.noise 2 float32 ] OR have the option to resize a single plane instance,

as the others will "automatically" mathematically squish down

always keeping within the boundaries of the of the master snorm / 

This would be very usefully for random plane size video mosaics etc.. etc..

Thanks  so much in advance

Hi phiol. Not sure how you'd do it but I believe the term for this is octree. Maybe googling code for that would help.

Thanks a lot for pointing me more in the right direction Andro :-)

Although , I'm still in doubt if it's the term because octree and quadtree seem to be perfect subdivision of a master square.

(of course I might be totally wrong and it's the correct terminology , I would simply have to make the values dynamic. Using a jit.expr etc... )

I would like things to be irregular without overlapping.

I've tried many, many things but to no avail just yet.

I'm sure there is a simple equation or object combo set up 'cause my methods are way to in the Hacks !

The term octree did lend me to this thread, the answer might be hidden in Nesa's patch

Like my link demonstrates http://www.squaring.net/history_theory/gfx/figure71.png ,

i would search internets for something like "photo gallery image fitting algorithm"

http://paulbourke.net/texture_colour/randomtile/

but "tiling by squares" would be the closest

Random "space filling tiling"
http://paulbourke.net/texture_colour/randomtile/

but "tiling by squares" would be the closest
http://www.squaring.net/sq/tws.html

Still no clue how to port to Jitter
I never studied mathematics


Maybe this will inspire you to an easy solution ?
