Re: How do i use slap module? Reply #8 - 07/29/10 at 04:16:01   OK.     Getting the ribbons is easy - feed your line data (not the tubes) to the Ribbon module.   Getting the circles is far more complicated than it should be. (One *ought* to be able to use MapToPlane or Map, but everything I've tried fails for one reason or another.) Oh, well, assuming your lines are vertical (which they seem to be) you can do the following: ...-> Tube -> Mark("positions") -> Compute("a.y") -> Isosurface(value= some Y coordinate) -> Connect -> Image   Hope that helps, Joel

Re: How do i use slap module? Reply #9 - 07/31/10 at 14:59:56   Thank you so muchh Joel ... but I still have some question to ask you as follow :                 1.  If I want to create circles (not lines), how do I ?               2.  Follow by yr advice , when I create lines (rings), the results colors was shown with y-axis data. (If i want to get data of y-position (not position value), how do I ?)         3.   If I want to create rods instead of tubes, how could it be ?       Thank you for your kindness and help , BTC

Re: How do i use slap module? Reply #10 - 08/01/10 at 05:53:08   1. Hmmm...I thought we were creating circles. Did you add the Connect module after Isosurface? Isosurface gives you rings and Connect fills them in. Also, I forgot to mention, you need to set the "normal" input of Connect to [0,1,0].   2. To recover the original data values, add Rename(oldname="saved data", newname="data") after Isosurface.   3. As for creating solid rods, I won't say this is impossible, but I don't know how you would do it. If you simply want to put end caps on the Tube so it *looks* solid, you could create the circles (as above) for the min and max Y coordinate, and Collect them together with the tubes before rendering. (Tube actually has an input to   specify the type of end cap, but it is non-functional.) If you want truly solid rods, I don't know how you would achieve this...sorry.   Cheers, Joel

After I connect module (follow by yr advices) , my result was shown in triangle (see as below). Why don't I get circles  as yr advice (- -")? What wrong with me?                                         Cheers, BTC

Re: How do i use slap module? Reply #12 - 08/04/10 at 03:05:22   Hmmm... There's nothing wrong with you - DX is just complicated sometimes! Anyway, I think I was too quick to offer my advice. In my little test, I only had a single tube. In your case, you have three parallel tubes. When you take the Isosurface, you get three rings, but then Connect connects all three together, rather than each one individually. I'll have to get back to you...   Cheers, Joel

If you make each tube a separate field and collect them in a group, it works as you'd like. I restructured your data file and have attached it.   Cheers, Joel

Reply #14 - 08/04/10 at 05:45:16   Thank you so muchhhh Joel ;                       I'm very happy with the results given by the above method but I still have some problem to ask u again.  How do I get min and max value from all tubes ? (I can't connect a Colormap module to Import module)
