Good day all!
Just started trying VisAD out a few days ago, and I'm a little stuck..
I can't figure out (from the tutorial, mailing list archives or other
doc) how to plot a 3D-trajectory (using the VisAD-Java-libraries)
time -> (x, y, z)
Ideally I would want to animate the trajectory, or show the time by
means of colors. (Also, I want to add a widget, to let the user control
the time variable.) I have tried something like the code below, but that
gives me the trajectory as (nicely colored) *points*, but I would want a
*continuous* function.. I realize that there is something fundamental
I've been missing here.. Could anyone point me in the right direction? I
found an intresting mailing list post on
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/staff/russ/visad/msg01230.html , but
I couldn't figure out how to implement that..
Best regards
