I would like to visualize a vector layer by the fraction of three variables on a map. Say I have for each geometry, the fraction of melons (red), apples (green) and oranges (orange).
A geometry with 1.0 melons, 0.0 apples and 0.0 oranges should be red,
a geometry with 0 melons, 0.7 apples and 0.3 oranges should have a color that is a combination of green and orange. Hope you get the idea.
Any tips how to accomplish this in QGIS?
The legend would look like this:
You can do this using an Expression to set the fill color of your polygons.
An initial experiment seems like:
color_rgb(
255*("UNEMPLOY" / maximum( "UNEMPLOY" )),
255*("SERVICE" / maximum( "SERVICE" )),
255*("MANUAL" / maximum( "MANUAL" ))
)
Will give something like you want but with Red, Green and Blue as the end points. If your data is already scaled to 0-1 then you can avoid the calculations I've had to use.
This generates a pretty ugly map (at least with my data):
I suspect you could make it prettier either by using HSV color space (color_hsv) or by a combination of create_ramp and ramp_color with some sort of combination of the RGB values.
Finally, the easiest way would probably be a short custom python script that returned a color based on three input values.
I did the periodic triangulation of five points with the default domain.The points were (0.2,0.3), (0.5,0.1), (0.7,0.6), (0.8,0.8), (0.5,0.11). After iterating over the faces for 1 sheeted covering and printing the output, I got this result:
0.8 0.8 , 0.7 0.6 , 1.2 1.3 and so on.
I know the points 1.2 1.3 means the point 0.2 0.3 as the domain is iso_ rectangle. But I want it to print 0.2 0.3 instead of 1.2 1.3 so that I could find the delaunay neighbours of a given vertex.
Thank you
If you have a vertex v of the periodic triangulation t, then t.periodic_point(v) gives you a periodic point, whose first element is a point in the original domain. I guess that this point is what you are looking for.

I use blender to create a model like an apple like this:
The model in Blender
And I export the model, getting a .obj file and a .mtl file, then I copy those two files into the folder of ARToolkit - examples/.../models - and change the setting in models.dat file by adding this:
models/Apple.obj
0.0 0.0 0.0
90.0 1.0 0.0 0.0
10.016 10.016 10.016
MARKER 1
But the model display without material like this:
The rendering effect seen in the camera
What should I do to display the model with material?
you didn't provide a lot of information. But from the information I can see you can try the following.
Sometimes the textures in the material are switched so you can try and load the obj using this function:
glmReadOBJ3(model0file, 0, 0,true); // context 0, don't read textures yet.
The last parameter forces the rendering to flip the texture when rendering which might help in your case.
Documentation for this function is here:
https://github.com/artoolkit/artoolkit5/blob/master/include/Eden/glm.h#L386
Let me know if that works for you.
How can all colours in a PDF be changed to their compliments? So, I mean that a document consisting of black text on a white background would be changed to a document consisting of white text on a black background. Any red colours in a document would be changed to turquoise colours and so on. Is there some standard utility that could be used for this purpose or am I likely to have to contrive some awkward ImageMagick image conversions?
EDIT: Here's a very manual way of doing this using ImageMagick:
convert -density 300 -quality 100 "${fileName}" tmp.png
mogrify -flatten *.png
mogrify -negate *.png
convert *.png "${fileName}"_1.pdf
EDIT: I changed the wording for the purposes of clarity.
I can think of at least 3 ways to invert (negate, compliment) colors of a PDF page description -- I mean treating page content as a black box, therefore not counting direct diving into page content and messing around as per Dingo's answer. Unfortunately, ready-made free tools (Ghostscript, mainly) provide incomplete solution and require manual intervention.
Note, that all specific terms used below require at least some knowledge of basics of PDF and Postscript Language References and are presented here somewhat as a simplification, please refer to manuals or google for thorough description.
The most obvious method is to use inverting Transfer function. Transfer
function (TF) expects an argument in the range 0..1 which is (additive) color
component, and returns color value, too. Negating TF is, of course, {1 sub neg} and is easy to inject:
gs -q -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -o out.pdf -c '{1 sub neg} settransfer' -f in.pdf
That's great, and Adobe Reader displays our out.pdf as (see below) negated. But here 'greatness' ends. All other viewers ignore TF, (probably) considering it to be device-dependent and actually present in PDF as a compensation for output device pecularities (non-linear printer response etc.) and therefore something to be ignored when displaying PDF on-screen. Further, depending in Reader's version, negation of black-on-white text leads to either white-on-black or yellowish-on-black text. And that's not great.
Therefore, we need not only TF injection, but the way to properly apply TF to
PDF content before viewing. And, regardless of ps2pdf Ghostscript's manual saying:
Currently, the transfer function is always applied
(of three options: Apply, Preserve, Remove)
using current 9.10 version, I couldn't make Ghostscript to actually apply TF (i.e. modify page description operators) when outputting to high-level (pdfwrite, as opposing to image output) devices. Maybe I'm missing something here.
But, Adobe Distiller, with proper options set, does apply TF to input postscript file.
Somewhat related to TF is the use of inverting Device-Link color profiles,
which are simple identity DL profiles with inverting (input or output) curves.
That's an interesting use of interesting technology, but, again, Ghostscript currently doesn't support proper Color Management (and DL profiles) in PDF-2-PDF workflows. Moreover, Adobe Acrobat doesn't know what to do with DL profiles, their use within Acrobat requires expensive third-party plugins.
If PDF viewer (renderer) claims to support 1.4 and transparency (they all do, nowadays), that's another way to go. PDF Reference says, that if current Blending Mode is Difference and we paint with white, it effectively means inverting backdrop. So, we explicitly paint background with white (if there's no background then there's nothing to invert), then put our current content (treating it as black box), then set Blending Mode to Difference and paint on top with white. Is that clear? Again, I had no success setting Blending Mode using Ghostscript, with:
[ /BM /Difference /SetTransparency pdfmark
It works OK with Distiller but is ignored by Ghostscript. Maybe (again) I'm missing something.
OK, to round up (the answer's getting somewhat long), here's Perl solution for 3d method using proper API (programming site, isn't it. Any programming language and appropriate API will do):
use strict;
use warnings;
use PDF::API2;
use PDF::API2::Basic::PDF::Utils;
my $pdf = PDF::API2->open('adobe_supplement_iso32000.pdf');
for my $n (1..$pdf->pages()) {
my $p = $pdf->openpage($n);
$p->{Group} = PDFDict();
$p->{Group}->{CS} = PDFName('DeviceRGB');
$p->{Group}->{S} = PDFName('Transparency');
my $gfx = $p->gfx(1); # prepend
$gfx->fillcolor('white');
$gfx->rect($p->get_mediabox());
$gfx->fill();
$gfx = $p->gfx(); # append
$gfx->egstate($pdf->egstate->blendmode('Difference'));
$gfx->fillcolor('white');
$gfx->rect($p->get_mediabox());
$gfx->fill();
}
$pdf->saveas('out.pdf');
Here I take one of Adobe documents and invert it.
What's important: page should have transparency blending space set to RGB explicitly, because Adobe Reader defaults to CMYK, and inverting colors in CMYK you probably don't want. Pure CMYK black 0-0-0-100 inverts to 100-100-100-0, that's (nearly) black, too. RGB black gives something like 70-60-50-70 CMYK that inverts to brown 30-40-50-30, and you don't want that. That's why I add Group entry to pages dictionaries.
Your question seems to be very similar to this:
Change background color of pdf
but you also want to change the colour of the text.
so you can follow the workflow I suggested some time ago for the same task:
----------------
vector pdf background (meaning not raster image) in pdf files can be
easily changed in a couple of steps (see also my stackoverflow answer that
now I'll extend and improve
Change background color of pdf
PRELIMINAR CHECK:
open your pdf file with an editor able to show the internal pdf structure,
like
notepad++
- http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v6.1.8.html
and verify if you can see code snippets like
0.000 0.000 0.000 rg (it means *black*)
1.000 1.000 1.000 rg (it means *white*)
and so on...
(code snippet can change, for instance, in pdf produced by openoffice
internal pdf exporting feature, the same code snippepts are in this forms:
0 0 0 rg (it means *black*)
1 1 1 rg (it means *white*)
and so on...
if you are able to see these code snippets, then you can start to change
values, otherwise, you need to decompress text streams
you can perform this task with
pdftk
http://www.pdflabs.com/docs/install-pdftk/
pdftk file.pdf output uncompressed.pdf uncompress
and recompress after finished changes
pdftk uncompressed.pdf output recompressed.pdf compress
now, if you see these code snippets, you can change values
STEP 1 (for pdf editing) -
the first thing you need is to find the right equivalence between RGB
color values of text and background and the internal pdf represerntation
of same colors
Since it seems you are a windowsian inhabitant from the third planet in
the Microsoft constellation, you can use a free color picker like this
http://www.iconico.com/download.aspx?app=ColorPic&type=free
to identify the rgb values of text and background colors
once you have these values, you need to convert into special internal pdf
representation
to do this take i mind this proportion:
1:255=x:color you selected
for instance: let say you have this RGB triplet for background:
30,144,255
to know correspondent values in pdf in order to insert in code snippet to
change pdf background color, you do: (you can use http://
www.wolframalpha.com/ to compute with precision)
1:255=x:30 = 30/255 = 0.117 (approximated to first three decimals)
1:255=x:144 = 144/255 = 0.564 (approximated to first three decimals)
1:255=x:255 = 255/255 = 1
so, the whole triplet in pdf, corresponding to RGB 30,144,255, will be:
0.117 0.564 1.000
STEP 2 (for pdf editing)
we look for 0.117 0.564 1.000 in pdf file with notepad++ (wrap around
and match one word only need to be checked) and we found the internal
pdf representation of background and we can change from azure to, let say,
white
1.000 1.000 1.000
or
1 1 1
but, since you wrote about black background, to be more precise, I
created a sample pdf with white background and black text
http://ge.tt/1N7Vuz91/v/0
since we know that 0.000 0.000 0.000 rg means black, we look for this
and we can change from 0.000 0.000 0.000 rg, to 1.000 1.000 1.000 rg
(white) BUT...
at same time, if, your text is black, nd you want change its color to white, you need also to change first the text from black to other color, otherwise it will be invisible, white on white
so, we cannot simply change directly white background to black, at once,
since doing this, we have not a difference between color text and
background values
and then we act as follows:
we change white background from 1.000 1.000 1.000 into something like
0.5 0.5 0.5 (light grey)
http://ge.tt/1N7Vuz91/v/1 (resulting pdf - intermediate step)
then looking for
0.000 0.000 0.000 (black text) and change to **white**
1.000 1.000 1.000
resulting intermediate pdf file:
http://ge.tt/1N7Vuz91/v/2
finally, we change again the color of background from
0.5 0.5 0.5 (light grey)
to black
0.000 0.000 0.000
and we have now a vector pdf with white text and black background
http://ge.tt/1N7Vuz91/v/3
please, remember to
1 - compress again this pdf you mmodified if you uncompressed with pdftk
2 - repair
pdftk file.pdf output fixed.pdf
there is another way, starting from postscript, to perform the same task,
but being you a windowsian, I guess the postscript way is the harder way
for you, but if someone (a linuxian from Torvald constellation) is
interested I can explain how do the same thing in postscript
not in this post to avoid to be too verbose
give a feedback, please, and feel free to ask more
I have a spreadsheet that contains data that ranges from 0.0 to 1.0, e.g.
a, 0.1
b, 0.11
c, 0.7
d, 0.12
...
I'd like a histogram where each bar covers a range of values, e.g. there would be a bar with a height of 3 for the range [0.1, 0.2). How do I do this in Open Office Calc? If it is hard to do, is there a commonly available tool that makes it easy? I'd prefer something that is available on both Linux and Windows.
So far, I've found two "solutions", both of which can do the job, but neither of which are ideal. However, they are both free and available for both Linux and Windows.
Ggobi provides a GUI that allows you to read in data from a CSV file and produce histograms. Unfortunately, the interface isn't that great, and it is hard to figure out how to manipulate the display. For example, by default, the histogram is "on its side", and thus far, I haven't figured out how to make the bars vertical rather than horizontal.
R provides a programming environment for statistics with some handy graphics packages. For example, you can create a histogram and put it into a PDF file with just a few lines of code:
result <- read.csv("myTable.csv")
str(result) # look at the structure of the resulting data frame
attach(result) # make the components of result available as objects
pdf("myTable.pdf")
hist(X.TCC)
plot(X.TCC, MWE, pch="*")
dev.off()
The drawback is that you need to learn something about the R environment.
