Hi, I agree - OpenDX is very painful to get data into, but once you do work out how to do it the data visualisation capabilities are impressive. There are no templates per se in relax, however relax does create the necessary files for visualisation of a 3D chi-squared space using isosurfaces. The figures in my 2006 JBNMR paper were created using the dx.map() and dx.execute() user functions which default to this mapping. Essentially I used the 'sample_script/map.py' script. As I have the need, I'll probably add more OpenDX capabilities to relax. Anyone else can do the same - most of the code will end up being strings for creating the necessary text files and hence won't be too complex. The 3D mapping files probably will not be of much use for mapping a 5 dimensional space using 2D contour plots (unless these 2D plots are isosurface plots). From experience I would recommend replicating the behaviour of certain programs, scripts, etc from the OpenDX samples, usually located in '/usr/lib/dx/samples' in Posix systems. The hardest part is creating the '.general' file for initially importing the data. I hope this helps. Cheers, Edward On 4/7/07, Alexandar Hansen <viochemist@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Hello, OpenDX is a really powerful program, however I find that it's incredibly confusing to start using. Are there any templates or visualization programs in relax to plot 3-dimensional contour plots like those in the JBNMR 2006 paper? I find myself in an irritating multi-dimensional hell right now trying to image 5 dimensions with 2D contour plots!
