[Plplot-general] Is PLplot the tool for us?

[Silje H. <sil...@ce...>]

Hi,

we're planning a new version of our vizualisation software and are looking
for new and better solutions for some areas. We need a good tool for 2D
plotting and are considering PLplot.

What I'm wondering about is if anyone had time to go over my list and tell
me if PLplot  has these capabilities.

1. Supports curves and scatter plotting with multiple series.
2. Multiple plot windows simultaniously
3. Plotting a variable against time
4. Export of plot-data to ASCII file
5. Printing as bitmap
6. Supports true vector line drawing for output of plots(for both Win and
Unix)
7. User interactions with plot. (Picking values, ...)
8. Formatting plots
	- Specifying axis scaling
	- Showing grid lines

If someone could tell me PLplot's possibilities in these areas, they would
save me a lot of time and I would be very grateful!

Thanks :)
