jnlp WebStart : Open JDK and Java 8 through Java 11 launch mechanism, 64-Bit Java will improve capabilities.

Single-Jar : .jar files can be launched on Windows and Mac, and contain a shell script for launching on Unix computers.

dmg: a self-contained installer for Mac computers.

Autoplot allows plotting of data from many data sources, including remote CDF files and HAPI servers. Datasets are identified with URIs, and by the URI's extension, data are loaded into one uniform data model. Data are then displayed by determining the rendering method and axis ranges to provide a useful display with interactive axes and mouse actions. The data can then be further processed with other operations like smooth and FFT, and Jython scripting provides a capable programming environment.

This is the Autoplot v2025a branch. This is an update to the production version containing bugfixes and minor new features. Java 8 is required.

To run on 32-bit systems, use the single-jar release and a 32-bit version of Java.

Bugfixes (2025-04-01 r28157):

Older Bugfixes (2025-03-27 r28157):

Clean up bugs in servlet's URI_Templates demonstration, which was broken when script security was tightened.
New code in PDS3 library for finding the volume root allows more datasets to be read in.
Correct target URL for help links ([?]) within tabs. Thanks, Erika!
2687: trigger a repaint in slice mouse action when axis units are changed. Thanks, Connor!
1359: redo code which implements the scan next and scan previous. Thanks, Larry!
2685: check for unbelievable valid_max in PDS4 (mvn_sta_l2_c6-32e64m_20141013_v02_r01.xml)
FiltersChainPanel should always use unbundle('X') and not just 'X'.
Remove unneeded decimal point from "0." tick when exponents are shown otherwise.
2684: don't drop title in fft operation
Features:
- fftPower now allows missing timetags, using indgen for tags.
- filename=T control for aggregation will return the filename for each data point.
Less recent features:
- Scan buttons indicate the amount of the scan (e.g. seconds to next burst).
- 840: Initial support for jsonl data files, returned by the NEST and other devices.
- Various improvements to the SimpleServlet, including support for named colors, drawGrid option and tooltips in the GUI.
