Inability to Display Results from arbitrary OxCal Code containing Non-R_Date Elements #51

Open MartinHinz opened 1 month ago

MartinHinz commented 1 month ago

When calibrating an arbitrary OxCal code that contains elements other than R_Date, the result cannot be displayed properly.

Potential Solutions:

  1. Plot only the R_Date elements: Filter out all other elements in the output and display only the R_Date entities.
  2. Extend the plotting function: Enhance the plotting functionality to support the same range of entities that OxCal can display.

While option 2 is more complex, it would be the ideal solution in the long term. I suggest we start by implementing option 1 as a temporary measure and aim for option 2 in the medium term.

It would already help if the output of the command parseFullOxcalOutput contained the entry $dates as does the one of the command parseOxcalOutput. Because it is missing, it is not possible to plot the probabilities ($prob) of R_Date or other entities.
