VectorStyler

@861475_VctSt I added this to the features backlog

@VectorStyler This is the online circuit board pattern generator (https://codepen.io/msurguy/pen/YPWZqoe).
It would be great if the Repeater could generate circuit board patterns with variations in the intensity of the background image.

@VectorStyler

deally, I'd like something that lets me freely draw each line by hand, rather than generating them by entering values on a panel.
It would also be nice if I could input text along the lines.

I'm eagerly awaiting it.

Earlier I used OmniGraffle, https://www.omnigroup.com/omnigraffle
for charts, diagrams, interface dialog structure and simple PCB-routing. Beautifully crafted software, check it out! Mac only though...

i like to add that you are able to create your own "Arrowhead"
in vectorstyler

select your Design for the arrow head and go to
Menu > Styles > Create Styles > Create Arrow Styles

dont remember which one was better Preset or Style
but i manage to create a circuit like stroke this way
.

@Subpath
Thank you for the tips.
What I'm looking for is unrelated to the theme; it's not a manual operation. I want to automatically generate circuit board pattern in a regular or random pattern based on the variations in intensity of background shapes or images, similar to the numbers and horse images I recorded in my video.

This looks cool and interesting.
I tried something, like your pics a while ago
in "Paragraphic" but could never solve how to do it.

Creating this kind of effect in VectorStyler is very simple and convenient.

I've been using OmniGraffle since version 3 (OG) for over 20 years now. Diagrams created in OG can be copied and pasted into VS as vectors. (In my case, since it's Japanese, the text gets garbled and is completely unusable.) While OG is a useful tool to have, it just doesn't feel natural to me.
When drawing flowcharts, I mainly use a low-cost software called VisualDesigner2. It has a pre-modern UI, but the operation feels familiar. (This cannot be copied and pasted into VS.)

Anyway, my approach is not to generate with a generator, but to draw, adjust the balance, draw again............ a very 20th-century style of operation.

On the other hand, I don't use software that generates complex shapes with generators much, as my field is different.
Recently, there's FontLab's VEXY LINES, for example.

Thanks for the tip.

I think much, if not everything, that "Vexy Lines" offers is possible with
the Repeater in Vectorstyler.

Paragraphic is similar as well. But I'll definitely take a look.
Because that's exactly my area; I like to experiment.

Here a Tip, Diagram related.
The "yEd" Graph Editor is a free java based Diagram App.
