One or actually two feature requests:
DPlot only shows 2D graps correctly if all x values "have the same distance".
- Sometimes I have to deal with an incomplete data set
(e.g. measuring device that takes more samples when measured value changes faster or a data set that is taken manually but some samples were missed or not valid).
- or since recently data that is stored as time, value - some other time,value - some other time, value (time intervals vary). Source is a (Lascar EL-USB-5) eventlogger which records events by voltage level, rising or falling edge or contact status.
I, and probably others, too, would like DPlot be able to handle such non-sequential data sets. E.g. in general:
0.0 - Y
0.5 - Y
1.0 - Y
1.2 - Y gets interesting; more samples are taken
1.4 - Y
1.5 - Y
1.6 - Y
(importing this into DPlot the graph gets severely distorted)
or in the eventlogger case:
sample# - datetime - Yvalue
10,2013-12-26 22:03:13.3,1
11,2013-12-26 22:03:24.3,0
12,2013-12-26 22:28:28.5,1
13,2013-12-26 22:28:39.8,0
14,2013-12-26 22:53:42.0,1
15,2013-12-26 22:53:53.3,0
16,2013-12-26 23:18:55.0,1
17,2013-12-26 23:19:06.0,0
18,2013-12-26 23:44:07.5,1
19,2013-12-26 23:44:18.5,0
20,2013-12-27 00:09:21.5,1
(this looks like a zero-line with short spikes: Y-value of 0 for 30min, followed by Y-value of 1 for 10 sec) etc.).
If I import this into DPlot nothing is left from the short spikes: instead it becomes a 50% dutycycle triangle curve.
UPDATE:
David, in an other post you recommended DigitizeIt. Recently tried and actually bought it but I noticed it's a great example of the first issue I described above: the produced datasets don't have subsequent x-values and it goes even further: more of the same x-values but with different y-values! This is going to involve quite a bit of prep work
