Michelle:

There is indeed a limitation of 3 components in the domain.

Thanks for reporting this.

Hi Curtis,

You sent me a link to the VisAD TextAdapter documention that showed examples on how to load a CSV file. It says that the only possible representations are 2-D arrays and 1,2, or 3-D points. In my .csv file, if I have 9 different input fields that can each be mapped to any visualization parameter, it seems as if I can only map at most 3 of these input fields at a time. Is this correct?

In that case, if I split up the 9 fields into 3 groups of 3, my data set would have to be broken down. However, in example #5 with the .bsv file, it looks like the range has 4 values. Is it possible to have a domain with 9 fields?

Maybe I'm not understanding the meaning of these mappings because in example #7, I don't see why longitude and latitude are in the domain when they are a visualization parameters for the output in VisAD.

Thanks,
Michelle

Hi Michelle,

I fixed a bug that was preventing spreadsheet files from
loading properly. You can find the attached BasicSSCell.java at:

 http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/~curtis/BasicSSCell.java

The VisAD distribution will reflect the changes within a few days.

Let me know if this fix does not solve your problem.

Hi Curtis,

Attached is the file that I tried to open in the Visad spreadsheet cell. It
said that it "could not be converted to Visad data". I also saved it as a
.txt and opened it in Notepad just fine. Are you able to open it on yours?

Thanks,
Michelle
