This add-on loads portable images (pbm, pgm, ppm, bmp) with some control on the scaling.
- Written by: Michael Connelly
- Compatible with: Tecplot 360
- Known Limitations: None!
- Instructions:
- Download the zip file and extract it.
- Install the add-on:
Tecplot 360 2006 users:
Copy the loadImage.dll to %TEC360HOME%\bin
Edit your tecplot.add file and add this line:
$!LoadAddon "loadImage"
Tecplot 360 or Focus 2008 users:
Copy the loadImage.dll to %TEC_360_2008%\bin or %TEC_FOCUS_2008%\bin
Edit your tecplot.add file and add this line:
$!LoadAddon "ldrimg"
- Start Tecplot
- A "Image Loader" option will appear in the File -> Load Data Files -> Select Import Format dialog:
- The Image Loader dialog is as follows:
Of note:
- The load image is self-explanatory.
- Divide color by a user specified value, often color in images is based on 255, but tecplot default intensity for RGB contours is 1, so the user can divide by the intensity as it is stored into tecplot.
- Add Z variable will add Z to the list of variables so instead of the variables being X, Y, Red, Green, Blue, the variables are X, Y, Z, Red, Green, Blue. This is useful for the user that has a zone with Topographic information, the user can linearally interpolate that topographic information (Z) onto this zone. This will provide the effect of drapping an aerial photograph onto the topography.
- If the user, chooses float then then he can interpolate the colors onto a model grid. For example, he has a bitmap image of a geologic cross-section and a model grid and wants interpolate the different rock units in the geologic cross-section to the model grid you would want to have a float variable, however, if the user has no need of doing this, then a short integer would save memory.
- Change from using min-max values to 4 corner georeferencing:
- File: (right-click and save)
Windows zip file with pre-compiled dll, sample image files and layouts: ImageLoader.zip
A linux 2.4 glibc version is available from Mike
