problems with "processing python"
Hello, I'm new to processing and also new to programming. I just know a bit of C++ and python.
I was trying to convert a java base code in processing to python so that I can work on it better but there was something that takes my attention.
I write a same code in java and python in processing but their output is not the same in visual.
python version is a little bigger and also less accurate in drawing things like circles and lines.
I put an example here for you to see what is my mean.
this is the code:
python:
def setup():
size(500, 500)
def draw():
circle(mouseX, mouseY, 50)
java:
void setup() {
size(500, 500);
}
void draw() {
circle(mouseX, mouseY, 50);
}
and this is the outputs:
Am I doing something wrong or is kind of normal that the python version is like this? I also see that the python version doesn't have debugging mode and the auto-formatting doesn't work on python.
It seems the Python display window zoomed/scaled, to ~10% or so larger, is making everything look bad. I couldn't replicate this on my computer.
It's a long shot -- but maybe this is some leftover config messing around with your Processing? What if you delete your preferences file (listed at the bottom of the File > Preferences panel), reopen Processing, and then try rerun a Python sketch?
I deleted the preferences file and test again but everything is the same as before looks bad
maybe because python is a bit slower than java that's why the precision is looking like that
I find it relevant to the windows display scale setting and I hope the developers fix it as soon as possible
