How much does it cost?

http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#GPLOutput &
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#NoMilitary seem to say that the 
output of a GPL program, other than where it includes a large chunk of 
itself, can't be restricted to or from any particular use, and that in 
general, the creator of a program can't enforce copyright over its output.

This goes against the license on the front page. I'm not sure what this 
would mean in legal terms, but it's certainly unenforceable as written.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download the Mac OS X version
2. Start FidGen-0003
3. See it crash immediately with the following report:

(Version of OS is 10.6.3.
Java Preferences is JAVA SE 6, 64bit / JAVA SE 6, 32bit / JAVA 5, 32bit / JAVA 
5, 64bit  in that order)

Attached file is the crash report

Need the ability to print any size.  Would it be possible to support vector
formats such as eps or illustrator files instead of pixel based png files?
 PDF versions of vector artwork are also good.

In the current version, exported tree files contain corrupted data if at
least one fiducial has been rejected. The corruption is due to wrongly
removing always the first marker in the list, instead of the last. The
issue has to do with some internal changes to the ArrayList.remove() method
(the same code works as expected with Strings). Overriding the equals()
method in FiducialNode fixes the issue for Java 6.

public boolean equals(Object o) {
  return toString().equals(o.toString());
}


What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. generate a marker, accept it by pressing A or S
2. reject the next marker by pressing X
3. press A or S again

Will check into SVN asap...

Currently fiducials are only exported as PNG bitmaps at the same size as
the window. This is fine for most applications since the markers are
usually printed at small sizes. However, having PDF export would be great
too and be more flexible...

Need the ability to survey the center point of the fiducial markers.  Would
it be possible to add cross hair to the center of the fiducial design and
somehow protect the center area with an invisible physics object so the
generation process always leaves the center protected.

Hi,

What steps will reproduce the problem?
* I have downloaded the windows zip file and unzipped it. When I execute
the FidGen-0003.exe, I get "Could not create the java virtual machine" and
it does not start at all.

I am using Windows Vista with Java 6 update 21 (latest as of today). Even
the oldest java 6 version does not work. I though it was related to the bug
you fixed in the previous release.

Is it a bug or am I doing it wrong ?

Thanks !

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download fidgen-0003.src.zip
2. Open Fidgen.pde
3. NullPointerException shown with the following error messages:

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected output is a fiducial marker generator window but what instead, I 
saw blank window with the above error and the processing IDE stopped at this 
line --->     Iterator i=blacks.iterator();

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Fidgen-0003.src.zip on Windows XP and Processing 1.0.9

Please provide any additional information below.

I can't get reactivision to recognize any of my own markers. 
I have edited the xml file and added the .trees file to the amoebe folder. 
Is there anything else thatneeds to be done?


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Using Fid.gen 0002 as version 0003 didn't work due to the virtual java 
machine problem.
Reactivision 1.4
On vista 32bit

Thanks in advance jeppe
