I've been playing with methods of implementing polar grids that are not congested in the center, related to Bug# 151092 (GFig's Polar Grid: Independent Sector Spacing Control) Here's the URL of an applet I wrote to test and demo the concept. http://cs.uhh.hawaii.edu/cs/courses/cs200/grids/ I could update gfig-grid.c if you like, but I'd like some direction (from someone who's done it recently) setting up a build environment for it on Windows to test it. (Of course I have the Java source if you want to take and adapt it yourself, or I could let someone else compile and test under Linux if that's easier) _-T ________________________________________________________________ Juno Platinum $9.95.
