Are there any decent free JAVA data plotting libraries out there?

On a recent JAVA project, we needed a free JAVA based real-time data plotting utility. After much searching, we found this tool called the Scientific Graphics Toolkit or SGT from NOAA. It seemed pretty robust, but we found out that it wasn't terribly configurable. Or at least not configurable enough to meet our needs. We ended up dig...

How can I plot data with a non-numeric X-axis?

I have a series of performance tests I would like to show as a graph. I have a set of tests (about 10) which I run on a set of components (currently 3), and get throughput results. The Y-axis would be the throughput result from the test, and the X-axis should have an abbreviated name of the test, with the results from the various compo...

In MATLAB, how do I change the background color of a subplot?

I'm trying to change the background color of a single subplot in a MATLAB figure. It's clearly feasible since the UI allows it, but I cannot find the function to automate it. I've looked into whitebg, but it changes the color scheme of the whole figure, not just the current subplot. (I'm using MATLAB Version 6.1 by the way) ...

Plot a data series beneath another one

When you plot things in Matlab, the most recently plotted data series is placed on top of whatever's already there. For example: figure; hold on plot(sin(linspace(0,pi)),'linewidth',4,'color',[0 0 1]) plot(cos(linspace(0,pi)),'linewidth',4,'color',[1 0 0]) Here, the red line is shown on top of the blue line (where they intersect). Is ...

Fixing the Radial Axis on MATLAB Polar Plots

I'm using polar plots (POLAR(THETA,RHO)) in MATLAB. Is there an easy way to fix the range for the radial axis to say, 1.5? I'm looking for something analogous to the xlim, ylim commands for cartesian axes. Haven't found anything in the docs yet. Thanks in advance. ...

Getting the value of a specific element from a different row in gnuplot

Using gnuplot 4.2, is it possible to obtain the value of a specific column/row and use that value somehow? For example, let's say my datafile contains the following #1 2 7 13 5 11 23 17 53 12 For a simple plot where column 1 is the x axis and column 2 is the y axis I would:- plot 'datafile' using 1:2 What I'm trying to do is to...

What's the best interactive Analysis and Plotting Tool for software testing?

My realtime app generates a data log: 100 words of data @10Khz. I need to analyze it and produce some plots of the results. There are intermediate calculations involved - I need to take some differences, averages, etc. Excel would work fine, except for: the 32000 item limit on graph data series is too small - that's only 3 seconds...

What is the best open-source java charting library? (other than jfreechart)

Is there any 'out-of-the-box' 2D/3D plotting library for C++?

Hello all, I looked at the different options for plotting functions (or other types of graphs) in an interactive window. I mostly use wxWidgets but I'd be open to any other "interfaces". Looking at what is available, here is what I've found: wxPlot: Not updated since 2006. But it would be a good candidate if it was... wxMathPlot: Ve...

Graph drawing C++ library?

Does anyone know any (preferably FOSS) C++ libraries that can draw basic graphs? I'm looking for something rather simplistic. Everything I could find through Googling involved complex, scientific-oriented 3D graphs. MathGL seemed like a good choice but I'm afraid it might be way too complex for our project. Thanks in advance! See al...

How to plot large data vectors accurately at all zoom levels in real time?

I have large data sets (10 Hz data, so 864k points per 24 Hours) which I need to plot in real time. The idea is the user can zoom and pan into highly detailed scatter plots. The data is not very continuous and there are spikes. Since the data set is so large, I can't plot every point each time the plot refreshes. But I also can't jus...
