Assignment 3 # 4 : NonLinear

I was originally going to continue using the spheres but for some reason when I thought of the polygon cubes it made me think they'd be presenting sort of like a piano keyboard. If I could get it to reproduce black keys above it that'd be pretty cool too. I worked off the Color Wheel code from before.

select -all;

doDelete;

float $radius = 60.0;

float $rotation = 360.0/60.0;

//float $translate = 1.0/10.0;

string $name;

string $name2;

for ($x=0;$x<20.0;$x++)

{

for ($y=0;$y<20;$y++)

{

$angle = $x * $rotation;

// $saturation = $y * $translate;

$hue = $angle/360.0;

$name = `shadingNode -asShader blinn`;

$name2 = $name + ".color";

vector $wheel = hsv_to_rgb(<<$hue, 1, 1>>);

setAttr $name2 -type double3 ($wheel.x) ($wheel.y) ($wheel.z);

polyCube -w .03 -h .03 -d 0.5 -sx 1 -sy 1 -sz 1 -ax 0 1 0 -cuv 4 -ch 1;

xform -translation (0.05*$x) 0 0;

// rotate -pivot 1 0 1 0 $angle 0;

hyperShade -assign $name;

}

}

;

AND, I made a happy rainbow keyboard! Just changed the setting for the hsv_to_rgb to (1,1,1).

Not sure if this counts but in order to get the rest of the non-linear colors. I just kept scooting the x down the line in the for loop.
