From: Richard Owlett on 18 Jul 2007 16:32 Basically I wish to plot a path thru 3d space. I've been looking at Plotchart ( create3DPlot and $plot3d plotdata ) with no luck. Please point me in right direction. Examples appreciated. Thanks.

Examples appreciated. Thanks. Plot a path through 3D space sounds like you want something like one of the OpenGL extensions (e.g. http://www.tcl3d.org). If its more a thing like GIS pathes you might look at something like GRASS, which has a Tk based GUI. Michael

Examples appreciated. Thanks. Hm, it should not be too difficult to extend Plotchart with such a facility, but that would come after my holidays :). Drop me a note if you are interested in that.

I've only had a chance to look at the opengl samples -- I've heard of it before. Typical of the problems I run into, it seems to be simultaneously too much _AND_ too little. Their audience is heavily orientated towards rendering 3D solids (with *IMPRESSIVE* results). But I want at most *A* 3 dimensional line. I have also been mulling the idea of a 3D scatter plot. In another thread, someone was referred to Tkzinc. That appears to have the same difficulty from my perspective. I may revert to using Scilab for my plotting. Originally I was refferred to TclTk to simplify data gathering. It turned out it could handle my minimal data reduction chores. If I could master Plotchart, all could be done in TclTk. > > If its more a thing like GIS pathes you might look at something like > GRASS, which has a Tk based GUI. No, that's not related to my interests.

It was your page, http://wiki.tcl.tk/18167 , which was tantalizing me ;) I'm newbie enough to not know how to follow up on "They are all part of the CVS repository, so for the most recent versions, I will refer you to the Tklib project." I'm looking for the 3D equivalent of createXYPlot and related commands. |
