[Configurator] Visualize patterns #51

Closed matsn0w closed 2 years ago

matsn0w commented 2 years ago

This is a 'nice to have'; it would be great if there was a way to 'play' a created pattern for testing purposes.

Maybe with a canvas and draggable blocks allowing the user to position it 'like on the car' for better visualisation.

Had some thoughts about this. It is more difficult to properly implement this than I expected. Not knowing the actual layout of the vehicle (the positions of the extra's), it makes no sense to 'randomly' place them somewhere. You can assume some common positions, but there are a lot of small differences across various VCF's.

Making the positions draggable could be a fix, but that doesn't solve all issues and adds a decent amount of complexity. Also not very user friendly. They would have to 'imagine' the orientation of the car (top-view, left-view?).

Closing this for now, might be reopened in the future when someone has an idea how to implement this properly.
