HI Adonini,
> I eventually have chosen the easy way, that is writing the path of the particle in a .dxf format,
That certainly sounds like an easy solution. As you say, DXF is a pretty easy format, and there were a number of open-source libraries available when I last looked for reading/writing it.
Last time I tried importing paths from DXF (ages ago!) it worked fine.

Your answer was really complete, thank you.
I eventually have chosen the easy way, that is writing the path of the particle in a .dxf format, which i found very very easy to manage for simple shapes.
Now i will try to import it as a path, i hope now the fun begins!
Your way was surely more elegant, but am strict with times now by now, maybe for the future i will consider it.
Thank you!

Hi Adonini,
I wrote you a detailed reply, but the SourceForge editor swallowed it :o(
> Anyways, i can't have results in a .svg format, since the program that runs the simulation is written by me in C
Of course you could. SVG is XML-based and pretty easy to generate - particularly if you were only generating paths.
**Oops!** But, I just realised that SVG is 2D based, so unless your...

Thank you for the rapid answer!

I thought maybe i could directly write an output script for AoI from my program, that writes a .bsh file that creates a sphere for every timestep at the wanted position. But this would be a really rough solution!

Hi again Adonini,
Part 2 of your answer:
Once you have imported all your data points into a curve in AOI, then you can make the particle (sphere) move along that path using the appropriate command in the "Animation" menu: Animation | Set path from Curve.
That should get you 90% of the way to where you want to be - and possibly even 100%.
If you want to adjust the speed of the...

Hi Adonini,
Welcome to AOI.
I expect you should be able to solve your problem fairly easily.
- Firstly, your C++ experience will help you. In general terms, Java is to C++ what C++ is to C. You will find that C++ and Java share common elements of syntax, so by and large you will be able to make sense of the AOI scriptig language, which is "beanshell".
- Secondly, if you can get your...

Hello everybody,
I'm a new user of AoI since two days, and i need to do a simple 3d movie of a particle moving along a known path.
Here is the problem, in two days i couldn't find a simple way to load the position vectors from a text file. The only way i found was to insert for every timestep the x y z location, but since i've about 500 timesteps it's gonna be a long job...
The data of the...

Hi All
Not sure if Julian McDonald the originator of the Outline Script; reads the bug traker or if any of the other coders can help, i would like
to use the Outline"Toon" scripts in the newer versions of AOI, i am trying to use the scripts with AOI 2.6.1 and Newer versions of AOI but
i keep getting error mesages, i notice that the scripts have not been updated since 2005.
Please can...
