Contour
type: item
description: Is there a way to make a contour manualy with the mouse with IDL. Does someone thinks that is possible or perhaps one of you has done it before. Thanks in advance. ************************************************************ ******* NOYON Mario ENSERB 3eme annee informatique http://www.enserb.u-bordeaux.fr/~noyon/index.html noyon@info.enserb.u-bordeaux.fr

There are occasions when the standard fill produces very weird results (I encountered these, but forgot how I made it), in these cases cell_fill will be much more robust. It may be a good idea to try out both algorithms (with and without cell_fill) if you have contour plots with a lot of variety, many gaps in the data or other somewhat ill-posed problems.

Also, be warned that in IDL 5.0 the cell_fill keyword does the same as the fill keyword. In IDL 5.0.2 /cell_fill is back but has bugs which occur on map projections (one of the main places where you need cell_fill in the first place). RSI are aware of this. The workaround they suggest is to use this short program as a wrapper around contour. ; ************************************************************ ** PRO CONTOUR_CELL, z, x, y, _EXTRA=e ; This program was supplied by RSI as a fix for the bigs in the ; cell_fill algorithm of the contour ; routine. contour_cell,data,xgrid,ygrid,/cell_fill will work where ; contour ,data,xgrid,ygrid,/cell_fill will not nx = n_elements(x) ;Divide a rectangular grid into ;triangles ny = n_elements(y) tr = lonarr(6, nx-1, ny-1, /NOZERO) for iy=0, ny-2 do for ix=0,nx-2 do $ ;Make the triangles tr(0, ix, iy) = [0, 1, nx+1, 0, nx+1, nx] + (ix + iy*nx) ;2/cell CONTOUR, z, x # replicate(1,ny), replicate(1,nx) # y, $ TRIANGULATION=tr, _EXTRA=e end ; ************************************************************ ** Hugh -- ============================================================ ============== Hugh C.
