How can my colleagues modify my charts?
I write my analysis programs in Java.
I like java except for graphs of analysis results and raw time series data. I have used the unmodifiable BufferedImage dot-matrix plots with fair results. But I want to draw graphics that my colleagues can touch-up or modify, because I can't predict everything they will want to show others or publish. I had the idea of outputting comma separated text files to be read into excel like: @ECHO OFF FOR %%A IN (%*) DO ( COPY %%A TEMPORAR.CSV ECHO %%A c:\"Program Files"\"Microsoft Office"\OFFICE11\EXCEL TEMPORAR.CSV ERASE TEMPORAR.CSV ) where the excel 2003 has a self-generated macro modified to link titles to cells. But I don't know how to unlink the chart, or if it would be modifiable then. And when I want to glance over a lot of result graphs, I have to do six clicks for each macro-produced graph where it seems like I should be able to program for one click each. I would appreciate suggestions on what software to use in my situation. My original data are usually long time series. Thanks in advance. |
