DPlot

Hi David,

During the install process on windows 7, setup produces a message "Unable to execute file C:\DPlot\DPLOTLIB\DPLOTLIB.EXE CreateProcess failed;code 2. The system cannot find the fil ...

I have just implemented similar kludgy fix in Access, as I am running it in two different environments with dplotlib in different places. However, good news is that our move to win 7 isn't a move to 6 ...

In Access, I use dplotlib. I rambled on about this (and a lot of other stuff) in a previous post http://www.dplot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1208&

When do you reckon on having the 64 bit dll do ...

We are about to make a move to win 7 64 bit. I use DPlot Dplotjr And Dplotlib called from MS Access and Excel. Are there any known holes I can avoid falling down with a bit of timely advice?

Hi

Anyone out there invoking Dplot from Perl? If so, how do you find it?

Will do.

In the Symbol/LineStyles dialog, there are a set of standard sysmbols, and then 3 windings fonts. Is there way to add a cusom symbol, and/or define such a symbol

OK. I can already see how that won't be good for a lot of circumstances.

How about just selecting them in the select label box in the point labels dialog? Select holding shift key down. No need to do it graphically eh?

In the menu item text->Label points, the Copy and Label All buttons operate on all existing labels, or ALL points in ALL curves. Is there any chance we could have a facitlity to operate on a select ...

I'll try to find out. Part of the problem is that the people who do it may not understand the question. If they did they might not do it - probably common in larger organisations

Success.

I should learn to follow instructions.
I'd better call the dogs off the TP now

Thanks

They are generally nice people, between a rock and a hard place. It does become irritating though.

So I ran regedit before your reply, to look for the keys. They are not present on the machine with ...

I did wonder about that. I figured other stuff might want to write to HKEY_CURRENT_USER. Excel is installed on the same machine as DPLOTjr
here. This problem also occurs with the full DPLOT on one la ...

Most likely you are correct, as you so often are.

However, the Thought Police here stop us from adding keys to the registry, so the self correcting action is thwarted. I think that's what is happe ...

Further to me moaning about our security - "they" have recently installed DPLOTJr on some machines, When I try to use the Excel add-in there, I get a message about "No Registry Entries ...

I'll put something together and send you an email.

Problem solved. Put the dll somewhere central. Change all the declare ... dplotlib to the specific location.

Thanks for your help

Thanks for the prompt response.

You are, of course, correct. I just went and checked how I had installed dplotlib (from dplotjr) with Access and it is where it can find it. You've given me a couple ...

My questions, inteded to clarify, just muddied the water. The XL side is all OK. I realise now that dplotlib.xla is what you get for the XL addin, and it doesn't need the dll. It just happens that on ...

And it is a local install. I should have mentioned this

A couple of questions which arise because I work in an organisation which has numerous security controls

1) does dplotlib come with the normal licensed dplot install dplotfull_setup.exe?
2) Is the ...

I'll wait to hear from jidriss. Incidentally, I used the ability to interface dplot and labview as an argument for buying dplot

I am talking it up. I have a proposal to buy a couple of lcienses here in the pipeline right now. But as you know, government doesn't move quickly, even down here on the world's bottom.

If JIdriss wants my lvlib, I'm happy to zip it up and send it - just give me the mechanism.

My labview (8.5) DID succeed in making Dplotlib labview library, and it issued the report at the end as follows
"Your generated files are installed in the following folder:
C:\Program Files\Nat ...

In spite of the best effortd of mother nature, we are still high and dry in Canberra (1800 feet elevation). I do feel for those poor folk in Japan at the moment.

How do you get a diagram into these ...

Thanks. it isn't holding me up - just thought it was curious.

Hi David,

When I save a contour plot as a jpg, the image appears to be slightly clipped, so that it loses the text of the numbers on the legend at the right hand side (version 2.3.0.3)

In fact, if one has a little patience (I went to lunch), labview does its work and produces an lvlib with the required functions in it as VIs, except a few of the bitmap ones (further work). Dragging ...
