Ok so quick update, I’m heading out but just got something working. I’ll go into more detail later.
Javascript and SVG libraries are a little above my level of tinkering. After spending half a day yesterday pound away, I got a something. I think my major problem is the coordinate system. I need to figure out how to shift it from being 0,0 in top left to being centre, centre, 0,0. Preferably with top right side being positive, positive. I plan to get back to that later.
I use to know Excel and VBA so I resorted to that. The process I have at the moment is:
1 - VBA macro to generate table of points(was able to reduce my level of accuracy and still keep my lines)
2 - same macro(or manually) creates a XY scatter graph with lines
3 - macro then turns off axes, legend, etc
4 - save graph as PDF
5 - open in Inkscape, fiddle and/or resize if need be, save as SVG
I tried to just save the points as CSV and figure a way to convert to SVG, but found nothing easy. Also with excel, I found it easy to make all my variables easy to change to get different results. Next step is to figure away to do different equations. Batman equation maybe?
I am sure OpenOffice could do the same. I just prefer Excel. Also with Excel I can see my numbers and understand what’s going on. With Javascript, I was stuck writing a word document and praying. I would really like to do a Javascript version. Anyone more familiar with that stuff, please contact. Would love to try to create a something.
Cheers all
