Roll Up and Split Example!

At first glance the various segments that make up a branch in the fusker collection tree may not seem familiar to many surfers. This example should help make the tree a bit less intimidating by relating the tree structure to the more familiar "Favorites" or "Book Mark" form of a URL.

Starting Off

We'll start by finding an image URL worth working with. Sticking to the theme of Female Action Stars we will look to add another actress to the collection. Eliza Dushku will probably be familiar to anyone that recognized Sarah Michelle Geller as Faith the vampire slayer.

Here we do a google image search for wallpapers of the Buffy nemesis and find several alluring images to choose from. Notice in the screen capture how the world's largest fusking system "Google" has improved their fusker output.

The image we chose to work with is enlarged image in the center of the screen from Superb Wall Papers. We already have the Femal Action Stars collection loaded.
Adding The Image URL To Our Collection

Using the URL Capture Bar and Auto Range Override
By right clicking on the large image directly from the Google search window we have the option of using Copy Image URL to get a direct reference to the image. Remember - let the image finish loading before you copy the URL.

When we paste the image URL into the URL Capture Bar we notice the image name
eliza-dushku-2207-1920x1080.jpg ends in what appears to be the resolution of the image (1920x1080). Rather than have the URL Capture Bar auto range this file we clear the Auto Range Override to turn auto ranging configuration off.

Then clicking the + on the URL Capture Bar we see the single image of Eliza Dushku has been added at the bottom of the collection and the image itself is displayed in the browser window.

Fusking The Image
While the final bit of the file name doesn't look like something to be fusked, there is another portion of the file name which looks promising. The number 2207 looks like it might be the image number. There are several ways to go about fusking this number to find other images that might be of interest. The method we demonstrate here uses three steps

Preparing Segment
The first step is to separate the image resolution and the number we wish to fusk. We leave the number in the Pre Text portion of the segment while moving the resolution to the Post Text using the Modify command on the tree menu.
Splitting Segment
After separating the data within a single segment we use the Split command on the tree menu to split the segment in to two segments. The top Split Directory segment contains the number we wish to fusk while the bottom File segment contains the image resolution.
Fusking Segment
Using the Auto Range command from the tree menu we fusk the Split Directory. With a value of 43 in Auto Range Override the resulting segment now references images 2207 through 2249.
Unexpected Result

When displayed at 20% zoom the page shows there were 49 actual images on the cdn.superbwallpapers.com domain referenced by the new segments (image 2215 is a missing file). But the surprise is that only a few of the images are actually of Eliza...

This can happen if the file names don't actually reference images, instead the URL is trapped by server side code which then references an actual file. In this case any text in place of "eliza-dushku" in the file name will generate the same results.


Rolling Up A Collection Branch
The Roll Up command on the tree menu will only be available if:
  • The selected segment is NOT the top level Collection or a Path segment.
  • The selected segment has a single child (File segments can not have children).
  • No more than one iteration exists between the selected segment and the child segment.
When the Roll Up command is issued, the information in both segments is combined into a single segment of the same type as the original child segment.
Branch of the fusker collection file for the superb wall papers site after example steps were taken The tree branch in the fusker collection is simple and not unusual for an Image Surfer Pro collection; however, it may look intimidating to those not familiar with collection trees and URL general definitions.

We will start Rolling Up the tree branch with the domain segment selected.
Rolling up a directory into the domain segment turns the domain segment into a directory Using the Roll Up command on the domain segment produces a directory segment below the http: path which contains both the domain and the "wallpapers" directory within the same segment.
Rolling up a subdirectory into a directory segment turns combines the information from both separated by a / Using the Roll Up command a second time brings the "celebrities" subdirectory into the selected segment. Notice each directory is separated by a standard "/" directory marker within the segment text.
Rolling up a split directory into the directory creates a new split directory segment iteration is maintained When the command is issued a third time the resulting Split Directory segment contains all of the previous segment text as well as the numeric fusk.
Rolling up the final file segment creates an interated file segment which contains all of the URL information Our final use of the Roll Up command creates a File segment which now contains the full URL information from domain to file extension. The fusk information in the original Split Directory is maintained in the new segment.
Details of the iterated file segment which resulted from the example commands In the details of the final segment we see the Pre-Text portion of the segment holds all of the URL information which comes before the image number. The image number is contained in a numerical iteration while the image resolution and file extension remain in the Post-Text portion of the segment.
