Crate poloto[−][src]

poloto - plot to SVG and style with CSS

Usage

Check out the github examples.

  • Plots containing NaN or Infinity are ignored.
  • After 6 plots, the colors cycle back and are repeated.

Units

Poloto will first print intervals is normal decimal at the precision required to capture the differences in the step size between the intervals. If the magnitude of a number is detected to be too big or small, it may switch to scientific notation, still at the required precision. It will only switch if the scientific notation version is actually less characters than the normal decimal format which is not always the case when you consider the precision that might be required to capture the step size.

Even with the above system, there are cases where the numbers all have a really big magnitude, but are all really close together (small step size). In this case, there isnt a really good way to format it. In this instance, poloto will fall back to making the number relative to the first number.

Can I change the styling of the plots?

Yes! You can harness the power of CSS both in the svg, or outside in html with an embeded svg. Some things you can do:

  • Change the color scheme to fit your html theme.
  • Highlight one plot, make it dashed, or add hover effect
  • Animate things using @keyframes

Depending on whether you are adding a new style attribute or overriding an existing one, you might have to increase the specificty of your css clause to make sure it overrides the svg css clause.

Why not scale the intervals to end nicely with the ends of the axis lines?

Doing this you would have to either have more dead space, or exclude plots that the user would expect to get plotted. Neither of these sounded better than the option of just having the intervals stop not necessarily at the end of the axis lines.
