Здорово!

I tried some functions (typed to the placeholder):

x - nothing happens

sin(x) - works

ln(x) - crash (perhaps due to undefined values)

any undefined function - crash

previously defined function returning a list - GUI freeze

Nice work uni

You can change only the function for now. Need to figure out a way how to pass parameters to display the graph or do it like in Mathcad.

A way could be to use context menu items (see ConstructorRegion plugin by Andrey)... also the Mathcad mode it's quite interesting...

you can post the plugin code?

This is a long time waiting feature and I think we are all excited about it

Good luck uni

Radovan

EDIT: I tried it a bit in a "faulty" Mono in Xubuntu. It si working initially although with crashes as Martin mentioned

The code is taken from this book:



C# Application Series - Xu J. - Practical C# Charts and Graphics [2007, PDF, ENG] (link, rus).

I have something removed and added something to get the plugin. I added sources.

mkraska, not so fast Try some number.

Thank you very much both for the sources and the book

[EDIT] plugins on wiki updated

thank you very much uni!
please look at this post:

ZedGraph is c# targeting .net20 so it should work both in windows and linux.

Thank you uni.
This is long overdue.
As you develop it, please have in mind the basic form of axes: Lin-Lin, Lin-Log, Log-Log.

Radovan,

How did you put graph title and axis titles? and axes greater than 1.

Thank you,
Basile

Updated. Form formatting is added to the context menu. Changes take effect after the recalculation. You can use system for several functions but be careful (not tested yet).

I did nothing else just put a number in the function placeholder, as uni said. It seems that uni just put this example just as a test at the moment.

Lots of user feedback in quite a short time shows that we are very interested in this plugin. It seems that we need to have some more patience until the very appreciated plugin like this become more stable , and than to test it more carefully

Regards,
Radovan

Thank you again.

Updated.

Thanks.
The traces & Number Format function is not working for me (Win 7 64 Bit).

Updated.

The last update seems to focus on handling lists of plots. The plugin seems to be under heavy construction.

For plotting functions, the xyplotrregion just evaluates the name, without caring for the argument, therefore plotting pure expressions just as x or x^2 fails.
Also, numbers must be pure numbers, not expressions that can be evaluated to numbers.

I guess that the built-in demo shows sort of development target. It would be interesting to know if expression input for plot items and range limits including unit handling are on the agenda. Anwyway, I am looking forward to the next release.

These tabs will be added later. Working on it.

Crashing xyplot:
- loading documents created with earlier versions of the plugin

- expressions evaluating to lists but not being lists (e.g. [MATH]±1[/MATH])

Not crashing xyplot:
- using units

empty placeholder produces a line y=x

Is using limit expressions including units (perhaps using placeholders as in old mathcad) on the agenda?

---

There is only one placeholder, so I can enter only the expression and nothing more. I don't know whether it is possible to add more placeholders. Limits for the graphs need to be set explicitly (in the formatting dialog).

Could global variables be an option?

The user might define or display values of settings like
XYPlot.xmin:0
XYPlot.xmax:3'm -> this would give the independent variable a unit
XYPlot.ymin:0
XYPlot.ymax:"auto" (auto-scaling)
XYPlot.xaxis:"log" or "lin"
XYPlot.title:num2str(n)
XYPlot.xtics:0,5*'m

etc. This would be quite transparent and readable, but could be hidden in collapsable regions if required.
Settings in the context menu might change or override the variable values or restore them to defaults.
Units could be automatically added to the default axis label if appropriate. You could, however, leave proper annotation in the user's responsibility.

Sticking to some naming convention (e.g. gnuplot) would facilitate the usage.
