Not a huge deal. With PB v4.40 you can no longer plot outside the image bounds with ImageOutput(). A tweak here or there would set it right.

I have a stupid question. It's all neat and everything, and maybe i'm a little dense this morning (ok, no comments :) ), but what would be a practical application of this ?

it's for visual exploration of relations between nodes. it's usefull for viewing network topology, partnerships, etc..

The "Oooh pretty!" factor.

Enterprise level systems sell over things like that.

THIS morning??? :wink: You and I are the founders of the Dense in the AM club! :D

If you could link nodes to other already existing nodes you would have a tool like the FBI uses to build relationship maps between gang members /terror suspects / innocent citizens! 8)

Very impressive! :o

There still seem to be an error with this line (about line 400)

Code: Select all

plot_color = ColorBlending ( Color, Point ( X + n * SensX, Y + nn * SensY ), Application )
Try adding nine consecutive nodes, move node four to the center and add twelve consecutive nodes after this node. Remember to turn on the debugger :)

LoL :)

Nodes might be OK for hardware or even virtual network or networking topology (both human and virtual) to show a basic picture, but for stuff like the relationships you mentioned you need interactive relational vectors and not just nodes to show ancillary and associated involvement/interaction as it occurs to get a clear picture. So for something like the relationships you mentioned its not suitable.

Yep... true... butthat gives him somewhere to go with it if he wants! 8)

Yeah.

I have to agree with Fred.

I didn't understand half of Rook's words either...

I just tried the code (edited version with bound checking) with PB 4.41 RC 1 and NT4 : it's better (it can see the circles and the first point) but it still crashes (invalid memory access at line 609 [EndProcedure]).
