Awesome! Thanks.

Genius......

Nice, a little improvement over StrangePuzzle's inverter.

Nice. I'm planning to implement a bunch of features like this in an alg.garron.us redesign, but this is a nice tool for now. Suggestion:

<input type="text" id="alg" size="40" onkeyup="generate(document.getElementById('alg').value);"></input>

(Ignore the space in "value." No idea why this forum can't format that word correctly.)

This is so necessary for OH discussions. Thanks!

Nice for BLD too. Thanks!

 

[Escher]

Cride, I bloody love you.

<input type="text" id="alg" size="40" onkeyup="generate(document.getElementById('alg').value);"></input>

<input type="text" id="alg" size="40" onkeyup="generate(this.value);"></input>

<input type="text" id="alg" size="40" onkeyup="generate(document.getElementById('alg').value);"></input>

<input type="text" id="alg" size="40" onkeyup="generate(this.value);"></input>

Oh, right, thanks. I had meant to make that suggestion, too, but got distracted by something else.

Suggestion:

<input type="text" id="alg" size="40" onkeyup="generate(document.getElementById('alg').value);"></input>

Cheers for the idea, it means no submit button is needed ... keeping things minimal is always good I also had to capture mouse events to deal with cases where algs are pasted in directly.

Cride, I bloody love you.

Love you too hunnybun

Already been using it. Registering my thanks.

That's a very cool tool!

I think it would also be a nice feature if you can add a cube rotation somewhere in the middle (or.. at any place in the alg), and changing the moves after that automatically. Same thing for changing R into r, and changing the rest of the moves automatically.

 

[bwatkins]

this is really quite helpful. thanks

 

[Raffael]

nice!
thanks a lot for this!

Again, great idea ... so I decided to implement it This one wasn't quite so trivial to do though, so the code has almost doubled in size, but it should now work. I've tested it a bit, but if anyone finds any problems with it please let me know, thanks.

Here's a suggestion: De-rotation of notation.

Example input: R y R y R y R
Example output: R B L F

That can be done with the new 'manipulate' feature

This is absolutely awesome!
Also helps a lot to convert FMC solutions to FTM metrics.

No it can't. That's slow.
