DataGraph 1.5 (for Mac OS X 10.5) is Released
David has released DataGraph 1.5 for Mac OS X 10.5 and the DataGraph Framework. This is a nice little upgrade as it adds several plot types for DataGraph and after the emails we have exchanged, I wanted to get the Framework (again) and look into the 'Real Time' example for ideas about plotting tick data or the simulation results.
He's also got a nice facelift to the icon. 🙂
After playing with the new release I started digging into the Framework and the example code for the real time data. Basically, he's sending a completely new data set to the graphing engine each time. This is a little different than I was looking at, but it's a worst case that shows that even in the case of redrawing 1000 points many times a second, DataGraph can keep up. Very smooth drawing. Impressive.
What I'm going to see if I can do is to take the results of one of my simulations and see if I can get this working on a simple 2D graph. I'm not sure how well it'll work out because the best fit right now would be the electrostatic solver and that's completely 3D, so I'll have to have it plot a slice through the workspace, I guess. Alternatively, hooking it into my FORTRAN code is going to be a little more difficult as that's not even generating any GUI and therefore I'll have a lot more work to do to get that going.
Anyway... fun times.
