SVG for double shot keys: How To!
« on: Tue, 08 March 2011, 08:02:05 »


Because there are so many now up for new shapes for their keys,
here are some guidelines how to the SVG graphic must look like
to meet production requirements.

When you do your SVG, then don't think of colors. Just think of the shape which has to be on the key.

If you make a yellow on black key, the black stuff in your file will be yellow in production, all the transparent stuff is the black base-material of the key.

On a 1x1 key, the maximal size a shape on the key can have, is 9.04mm wide and 10.84mm high.

How much space on a back space key?


a) Measure the width of the top of a 1x1 key from Round 1.
b) Measure the width of the top of the Backspace from Round 1.

Let a be the measure from (a),
and b be the measure from (b),
and v be the maximum width for a shape on a 1x1 key.

Then,

w:=b-(a-v)

is the maximum width for a shape on a key as described in (b).

Thanks. I don't have a round 1 set to measure but looking at the DCS factsheet and a bit of math gives me:

w = 27.20mm
h = 10.84mm

Hmm, looks like an svg file to me:



Is there more than one type? I am confuse :(




Edit: Looked again, it may have been saved as an "Inkscape SVG". I've saved it as a "plain SVG", if that doesn't work I don't know what will

I've noticed that it's reported as a text document when I download, is that what you mean?

Looks like the web page of the filehost to me, I don't know why you're getting that XHTML. I've downloaded both files myself and when I open the second one in notepad I get:

I just tried downloading it too...  No luck.  It is not recognized as a normal svg.  Are you sure that you "saved" it as an svg from an image editor and not just named it that?

I give up. :(


This is an SVG alright, just not what you've got in mind.  It is a rectangle with 7/8 in black and 1/8 in transparent.

Maybe there is something missing.

Just make a zip-file out of it and attach it to your post.

Why don't all you guys put your money together and buy bugfix his keyboard of choice and he will help you doing those SVG graphics?

There's something in the Inkscape FAQs about implementation of flowed text in different SVG specifications that I don't really understand but I think the recommended steps have fixed things (fingers crossed). I have attached my 4th attempt (when I couldn't attach an SVG it never occurred to me to zip it). I can see it in opera and firefox, so hopefully 4th time's a charm.

Edit: Fail! Attachment removed.

OK, it works.

Now you need to figure out how to make it in typewriter font as in your sample images...

PS: It would look much better, if there where more gap between geek and hack and if there where no gap between gee and k.

Currently it is like "geek hac  k" .

What about a complete 104 set with good typography? I.e. send svg Helvetica or Univers instead of that default Signature font.

Yeah, the numbers I quoted are for the area of the keytop that can be used for a doubleshot legend. Not another fail today please, I don't think I can take it!

no failure! i measured the gap between edge and text on the back space key: my formula is correct.

Ok, so when I open it in Firefox and zoom in using using CTRL and mouse wheel I see:



..not what you're describing. I got everything as close as I could whilst leaving 0.5mm gap. The SVG was created using a font in Inkscape (not created from scratch) perhaps your software doesn't support that font? If that's the case SP could have a problem too.

Do you recognise the word "font"?

You did not an SVG with shapes formed out of polygons, but just used characters!

The font is "Simplified Arabic Fixed" which is surely not installed on my system!

It is a True Type Font, availabe here:

http://cooltext.com/Download-Font-Simplified+Arabic+Fixed

Edit:
I'm quite sure that your default font is that typewriter font and that arabic stuff is not availabe on your system either ...

The only way out is to create it as proper shapes ...

Yes I recognise the word font, I used it twice in the post you quoted 25 minutes ago where I explained that I didn't create the SVG from scratch.

I don't know what the problem is. I can open the file in Mozilla on two different machines (Win 7 with Inkscape and Vista without Inkscape) and it looks fine. I get the feeling that you think either I'm a moron or that I'm trolling you (neither of which I can do anything about) and unless anyone else can open the file and back me up then I guess that I'll just have to live with it. :/

Edit: I certainly don't want to fall out with anyone over it. :)

Typical Windows user problem.

Sorry for that, but it is as it is.

In your SVG it says: use this font.

But:  In your SVG is no such font.

It is maybe or maybe not on your computer.

It is surely not on my computer. So my default setting is being used.
It is most presumably not on the computer used to make the double shot tool!!!

You can't assume that, even if Melissa sees it like you see it.

In the worst case, you get weired stuff on your key.

I think the problem is you have to convert the letters to paths.  ShiftCtrlC.

But I'm no expert - I looked it up here.

For a tutorial the teacher is a bit rude.  I'd hate to go to school in Germany.


ACK!

Thanks!

Sizing
« Reply #27 on: Tue, 08 March 2011, 14:52:13 »
Sorry, wasn't quite clear on the size requirements. Does it need to be within the bounds of the actual keysize or will they get scaled down if the SVG dimensions are pretty large?

I think mines pretty gigantic but still trying to figure out how to scale it down appropriately.

I've modified the radiation symbol to exactly fit the 9.04x10.84mm size requirements you gave and to have the necessary clearances and minimum feature size. Naturally, there were some compromises given the constraints, but I think it came out OK. I did this one first because it was the simplest, but I can do things like the skull or union jack when I have more time.

They will be scaled down to the size of the surface where a shape can be insert-moded into the key.

I post a pic....

It is as large as the Windows logo, or as the Diamond.

Size is perfect!

It is as large as the Windows logo, or as the Diamond.


Oh wow, that looks great. I'll get this posted to the original custom key case.

Thanks 7bit!

Bummer, looks like the SVG file contains an embedded image (I'm not too familiar with the properties of a SVG).

Anyone have insight on how to just get a standard SVG that contains no font/image?

What did you use to make it?

Maybe there is an 'Object to Path' option ...

I think the problem is you have to convert the letters to paths.  ShiftCtrlC.

But I'm no expert - I looked it up here.

For a tutorial the teacher is a bit rude.  I'd hate to go to school in Germany.


Do you use inkscape?

I exported the SVG as a bitmap, imported the bitmap into a new SVG, traced the bitmap and finally deleted it leaving the paths. Looks ok to me but then that's not the first time that I've said that!

I thought that SP only did certain fonts because new ones require additional tooling costs.  Could you hypothetically create new SVGs for each key and create a whole new font?  If so, what would be the difference and would it result in higher costs?

Whoah, whoah! Let's not get ahead of ourselves, round 3 hasn't even shipped yet! I'm thinking 2014 for round 4...

I think I'd be happy with any of these.


I personally like the orange on black one, black on orange seems kind of.. conspicuous.

I would like to see this GH key in orange on GX (Very Dark Gray; Standard kits modifier keys).

I will be in for one White on orange and for one white on Light blue to match the 2 gaming sets.

I need to reach the 250 keycaps limit of the Package! I think with KEYBOARDLOVER I'm now at 240.

I've modified the radiation symbol to exactly fit the 9.04x10.84mm size requirements you gave and to have the necessary clearances and minimum feature size. Naturally, there were some compromises given the constraints, but I think it came out OK. I did this one first because it was the simplest, but I can do things like the skull or union jack when I have more time.




OK, the tape-drive button looks great!

Who makes the washing-machine,  punched card and 8" floppy buttons?

PS: which key, which color?

I wish I'd made the SVG earlier then we could have made them part of the gamer sets, maybe the standard set too.
