Evening, all
This is about Windows Radiance, and of possible interest to rad-openstudio, although I'm not cross-posting.
When attempting to use bgraph.exe with the following lux.plt file:
----------------- 8< -----------------
include=line.plt
title="Working Plane Illuminance"
xlabel="Distance from Window"
ylabel="Illuminance [lux]"
Adata=lux.csv
Acolor=2
----------------- 8< -----------------
I get this error message:
bgraph: lux.plt: File not found: line.plt
Under LINUX, line.plt is stored under $RAYPATH/meta
The Windows (as in NREL) Radiance distribution doesn't come with lib/meta, so I copied it across. Still no luck.
echo %RAYPATH%
.;C:\Program Files\Radiance\lib
I have found that there is a bit of inconsistency with file paths under Windows, so I also tried
set RAYPATH=.;C:/Program Files/Radiance/lib
echo %RAYPATH%
.;C:/Program Files/Radiance/lib
but again to no avail.
My questions therefore are:
a) Where does bgraph.exe look for line.plt?
b) Windows radiance ships with bgraph.exe, but not with the $RAYPATH/meta dir. Does this mean that bgraph.exe (with psmeta and ghostview, of course) isn't actually that useful? What can it do?
Many thanks for your thoughts.
Have a lovely Sunday evening
Axel
Hi again,
Pretty sure we fixed the missing lib/meta in the packages a while ago. WHat vintage of installer are you using? I have to admit, I haven't used graph in like ten years. Lemme see if I can test this out tomorrow.

Hi Rob,
I'm using rad9ance-4.2a.exe from just a few days ago. When it didn't work, I downloaded the very latest one.
