Add Ability to Connect a Data Tree of LegendPar to all Visualization Components #251

Open arkdanielnielsen opened 9 years ago

arkdanielnielsen commented 9 years ago

Is it possible to have multiple low/high bounds input with the legend parameter? It does not seems like it is possible. I would like to control them with only one 3D Chart component instead of having multiple components. (I know it is not a 3D Chart in the image but the limitation is the same). honeybee_charts_multiple-bounds-01

@arkdanielnielsen , It is possible but it will take a bit of time to implement. Maybe a few months down the line, I can get to it. For now, the legendPar for the bar chart only refer to the first set of data connected to it. If your data sets that you plug into the bar chart have the same units, then we can say that the scale is changing for both but, with different types of data, this is tough. -Chris

and this is a Ladybug issue not a Honeybee one! :)

arkdanielnielsen commented 9 years ago

Ups ;) I really think this could be very useful enhancement. Right now I am also doing some wind-rose analysis, and that is the same problem with the conditional statement output. I have to generate the wind-rose with conditional statement twice and hide the first and then the second rose. It is possible to get the result I want with some workaround.

@arkdanielnielsen ,

I just implemented this ability on the 3D chart. Combined with the new color librarues, you can now do some pretty cool things with just a couple of components: multi-legendpar

Find the GH file here for how to format the LegendPar https://www.dropbox.com/s/gqfng8hvqf5hfh2/MultipleDataChart.gh?dl=0

I will implement this on the bar chart shortly. -Chris

Speechless! this is beautiful.

Speechless is not a word for this!! So nice!!

chriswmackey commented 9 years ago

I have now implemented this on a lot of components and I aim to finish this off before the next stable release.
