Create Layouts

Last changed: 12 weeks 6 days ago

A GUI tool that makes creating a new layout easier. This is designed to be a rough replacement for the built in Igor Pro New Page Layout dialog. At this time, however, this is not a complete replacement and is lacking some functionality, including the ability to add tables to the layout. The package allows the user to control the order of the graphs placed on the layout and allows the user to see thumbnail images of the possible graphs and to select them from a list.

Joystick XOP

Last changed: 1 day 50 min ago

This XOP allows Igor to read and control the inputs and outputs from and to a force feedback joystick. These are relatively inexpensive consumer devices used mainly for playing games, I presume, but can be useful elsewhere (atomic force microscopy?), as they are for my purposes, where a monkey uses the joystick. In general, the idea is to provide a haptic interface within Igor. Of course, there may be a market for Igor gaming. :-)

Multiple file loader front end

Last changed: 24 weeks 23 hours ago

A small panel is presented to the user for loading multiple files into an Igor experiment. This panel gives the user the ability to navigate to the disk folder containing files to load. A listbox is then updated to show a list of files in that folder. The shift key can be used to define contiguous groups of files and the control key (Win) or command key (Mac) can be used to select and deselect individual files in the listbox. Finally a button "GetFiles" is used to end file selection and initiate further code exection. The panel code stores its waves in its own subfolder.

Slideshow

Last changed: 16 weeks 6 hours ago

This Igor experiment takes a folder of images and lets the user manipulate them a little bit and produce slide shows. A web page can be generated, a QuickTime movie made, or the slides can be played in Igor.

TabControl

Last changed: 23 weeks 22 hours ago

A package that makes adding extensive functionality to tab controls easy.

NOTE: I haven't finished the ACL_Tab Control Utility.ihf help file yet. However, using the package is fairly simple. Just follow these steps:

1. Open both of the included procedure files (TabControl and UserdataEditor) in your Igor Pro experiment. These procedures require Igor Pro 6.01 or greater.
2. Create a panel with a tab control and add your controls to it.

ZIP - inflating and deflating (.z and .gz format) strings using zlib

Last changed: 2 weeks 4 days ago

This XOP will inflate and deflate strings that contain information encoded in .z and .gz formats. It will not handle .zip or multifile zip files. The encoding is done in .gz format.

It is based on the free zlib library.

Useage:

string test = "0123456789"
string test2 = zipencode(test)
string test3 = zipdecode(test2)
print test3

or

variable fileID
open/r fileID      //open a .gz file
fStatus fileID    //get the length of the file in bytes
string inData = "" 
inData = padstring(indata,V_logEOF,0)   //make the indata string as long as the fileitself
