Autoplot Application (#{tag})
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.
exe: a self-contained installer for Windows computers.
Built with Install4J multi-platform installer builder and
deb and
rpm are available as well. Thanks, Install4J!
CDAWeb HAPI server performance is clearly improved since October fix.
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 v2024a 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 (2024-12-12 r28000):
- Completions on URI with aggregation would list the entire filesystem, effectively hanging in some cases.
- Demo bookmarks #16 updated to CDAWeb, since elasticbeanstalk (Cassini) one is not available.
Older Bugfixes (2024-12-12 r28000):
- 2615: label for PDS3 completion must include parameter name to work in script editor completions.
- Remove migrate preferences, which moved preferences from 2016 Autoplot, and makes it difficult to test a fresh session.
- String "null" would appear in HAPI dataset titles incorrectly.
- Don't throw runtime error when empty data source is edited. Thanks, Scott C!
- like CDAWeb reverts to offline mode, using template in all.xml automatically when internet is not available.
- miscellaneous minor items, like feedback when internet is not available.
- 2652: Image panel in GrannyTextEditor was incorrectly labeled "psym".
- 2602: Correct link to wildcards documentation on make aggregation GUI.
- 2654: Don't handle zero-width range inputs with runtime exception. Thanks, alasko!
- 119: support ISO8601 range '2016-05-20T07:46:19.494/07:46:19.8' (.8 vs .800) Thanks, Sadie!
- 2651: HAPI data doesn't come up as spectrograms by default. Thanks, Jon V!
- Manual ticks, when empty, would result in a runtime error and prevented printing. Thanks, Masafumi!
- 2650: kludgy code would assume first column was a time in the ASCII parser. Thanks, Masafumi!
- 2650: Check validity of Red, Green, Blue arrays.
- 0083: bug where loglin axis labeller would miscount second decade (linear is 0.5).
- 795: bugs with identifyContinuousBlocks found in untested modes.
- 0083: bug where loglin axis labeller would miscount second decade.
- 0083: bug where single tick was used. (There should always be at least two major ticks.)
- 2649: AutoplotSettings.settings().getPreferences used inconsistently
- 2647: always show the context in the title when it is found.
- AsciiDataSet used to grab ASCII from binary tables dropped its units with slice operation, making nominal data unusable.
- Compile in old name org.autoplot.scriptconsole.ScriptPanelSupport to support old scripts until they can be updated.
- 789: New code which would grab the timerange from the URI when trim=True was set broke old interface. Thanks, Sadie!
Features:
- Add PDS3 demo to bookmarks (#17).
Less recent features:
- extract common codes btw PDS3 and PDS4 working with Document to get titles. When getting the title from the description, just use the first sentence.
- 835: script in tools will switch to Dark LAF. Thanks, Chris!
- PDS3 with time column as the first column will use it as the independent values. This will have to do for AGU!
Feedback on the function and quality of this release is greatly appreciated!
