SciDAVis is a user-friendly data analysis and visualization program primarily aimed at high-quality plotting of scientific data. It strives to combine an intuitive, easy-to-use graphical user interface with powerful features such as Python scriptability.
What's New
Version 0.2.4:
- Some parts of the Python API have been marked as deprecated and generate warnings when used. This
may be a bit unusual for a bugfix release; on the other hand, they won't be removed any time soon
and inserting the deprecation warnings now will give everyone as much time as possible for getting
accustomed to the API we're moving towards.
Most prominently,
Table.cell(column,row) and
Table.setCell(column,row,value)
are deprecated in favour of
Table.column(column - 1).valueAt(row - 1) and
Table.column(column - 1).setValueAt(row - 1, value) (note that the column/row INDICES DIFFER BY ONE!); the same goes for
Table.text(c,r) -> Table.column(c - 1).textAt(r - 1) and
Table.setText(c,r,text) -> Table.column(c - 1).setTextAt(r - 1,text).This serves multiple purposes. It simplifies the interfaces by grouping all functionality specific to a certain column in the Column class; it allows column objects to be stored and passed around; and it moves from the unconventional 1-based indexing to the more conventional 0-based indexing. Future additions to the API will increasingly make use of the columns-as-objects paradigm.
- lots of bugfixes, again including crashes
- fixed compatibility issues with Qt 4.6 and SIP 4.9
- performance improvements
- substantially improved support for plots involving date/time data
- added two Czech translations: a default one by Pavel Fric (feedback requested via
- http://fripohled.blogspot.com) and an alternative one by Jan Helebrant

Let me the first to apologize for SOME Mac users, who apparently think that developers should all work for free. I seriously doubt that this user is a seasoned professional. Some of us do truly appreciate all those who attempt to port for Mac. It is certainly nice to have self-installing .DMGs, and nice Mac-like icons, but too much emphasis is placed on this when reviews in MU should focus on all the technical issues, and to vote according to balanced criteria. When an application is truly a free app, as this appears to be, then reviews should also take this into consideration.
I would give this 4-stars for effort, but have not yet installed it, because I am a typical lazy Mac user and am used to auto-install features. But, at least I am willing to admit my biases. : )
Thanks for the port. Will examine this more closely asap.
