Class HPlotMX

java.lang.Object

jhplot.HPlotMX

public class HPlotMX
extends Object

Interactive canvas for visualizing and experimenting with a variety of mathematical objects in 2D and 3D. It is based 3D-XplorMath-J, but rewritted to allow vector graphics rendering. Thus it can be a bit slower, but the quality of graphics is much higher (graphics can be exported to EPS and PDF).

Constructor Detail

HPlotMX

public HPlotMX(String exhibitName)

Create canvas and show mathematical object. If the input ends with ".xml", it is assumed to be file. The file cab be on URL (input must start with http), or local file (input must start as file:). If the input does not have ".xml", it is assumed to be class name with object.

Parameters:

exhibitName - exhibitName object to be shown.

HPlotMX

public HPlotMX()

Construct a canvas with a plot with the default parameters.

Method Detail

clear

public void clear()

Clear the current graph including graph settings. Note: the current graph is set by the cd() method

draw

public void draw(vmm3d.core.Exhibit exhibit)

Draw mathematical object in form of exhibit. The default view will be applied.

Parameters:

exhibit - mathematical object to be shown.

draw

public void draw(vmm3d.surface.parametric.SurfaceParametric exhibit)

Draw mathematical SurfaceParametric object (parametric function defining a surface).

Parameters:

exhibit - parametric function to draw surface

draw

public void draw(vmm3d.surface.implicit.SurfaceImplicit exhibit)

Draw mathematical SurfaceImplicit object (parametric function defining a surface).

Parameters:

exhibit - parametric function to draw surface

draw

public void draw(vmm3d.polyhedron.RegularPolyhedron exhibit)

Draw RegularPolyhedron object (parametric function defining a surface).

Parameters:

exhibit - RegularPolyhedron

draw

public void draw(vmm3d.conformalmap.ConformalMap exhibit)

Draw conformal map object.

Parameters:

exhibit - conformal map

draw

public void draw(vmm3d.spacecurve.parametric.SpaceCurveParametric exhibit)

Draw parametric space curves

Parameters:

exhibit - parametric space curves.

draw

public void draw(vmm3d.core.Exhibit exhibit,
                 vmm3d.core.View view)

Draw any mathematical object in form of exhibit with a given view.

Parameters:

exhibit - mathematical object to be shown.

view - View of this exhibit.

export

public boolean export(String file)

Export graph into an image file. The the image format is given by extension. "png", "jpg", "eps", "pdf", "svg". In case of "eps", "pdf" and "svg", vector graphics is used.

Parameters:

filename - file name

getWindowXM

public vmm3d.xm3d.WindowXM getWindowXM()
