Merge Handwriting Synthesis GUI #81

Open AceBeaker2 opened 11 months ago

AceBeaker2 commented 11 months ago

I've spent a decent amount of time making a neat little GUI for the project using tkinter, and I was hoping it could be merged upstream into the project. I understand that this project is very old and unmaintained, but I hope this little tweak can make it way easier to use! I also have a pyinstaller windows executable in the releases branch of my fork.

Best wishes!

Wow this is great.

This is really great! Are you still working on this? If you are, it would be awesome if you could add some way to output single line, so no width SVG versions of the resulting file. So just like the pngs you output with paragraphs and all, but as SVGs that don't have any thickness to the lines. That way the results could be easily used with common pen plotters, which would be great!

If there weren't any licensing concerns, you could even reach out to Una from UUNA Tec to integrate this into their pen plotter software, that would be an incredible upgrade for them.

how are you able to work on it, it uses tensorflow 1.6 and that is supported by python 3.6 and it reached end of life

I don't know enough about tensorflow or whatever to be affected by any problems with it, I just do it and it works ;) Seriously, I just followed that tutorial I found in the issues section and it just worked. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VN_4y4WIGE It's just the quality of the output of the program, along with missing characters, that made me switch to just making my own fonts by hand. That could probably be remedied by training the model on my own font with all characters needed, but I don't need it enough to figure out how to do that.
