depthmapx's Issues

NEW BUG_Nothing appears in the 3D view window

The Depthmap file contains a visibility graph. I tried to open the 3D view window but I could not see anything inside it. I tried to use the zoom and the Recenter View tools but I still can't see anything inside. I also tried to add agents with no success.

Multiple range selection isn't working -- shift key doesn't preserve the existing selection

In Depthmap 10, the shift key allows you to select multiple points or regions of points for agent release or other purposes. That's not working in X -- the prior selection of points is always canceled by a new selection.

NEW BUG_double click for choosing a column in Sala script needs to be activated

This is a minor issue. When editing a column and launching the Sala script window, I can choose columns by pressing on the use attributes button but I no longer can choose the columns by double clicking them.

Unresponsive axial calculation in step 3

When running the axial analysis tool on Windows, it got stuck on step 3 for a long time. When i cut out half of the layer, the calculation went pretty smooth. Where can i find the logs to read where it is stuck?

Double click on a column in 'Attribute Summary' window does not open the 'Column Properties' window

Segment map analysis

I am troubled with problem when I transfer axial map to segment map. There are four more lines appeared which are not supposed to be. I do not know how to fix this problem. Thank you so much.

Apply button in Colour range window is not working properly

When opening the colour range window and changing the slider, I occasionally find the Apply button deactivated. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.

NEW BUG_Agent analysis_field for record trails for agents is unchangeable

I opened the Agent Analysis Setup window. Then I tried to type any values in the record trails field other than 50, but I was not successful. The value 50 seems to be unchangeable.

How to calculate WEIGHTED Step Depth?

Hi All,

I am working on a segment map (convert from axial map) analysis for a course paper. I notice that we can use weighted options in "Angular Segment Analysis" toolbox. However I only would like to calculate topological&metric step depth for certain selected segments with some WEIGHT.

I can I realize that?

Thank you very much.

Cannot import a dxf file & cannot open a graph. file

Hello Tasos,

1. Importing a .dxf file:

My depthmapX 0.50 MacOSX cannot import dxf files? What happens is that importing the file freezes at step 0 of 0 in the pop-up window. However, the windows version can import the same dxf file. My OS is Yosemite 10.10.5.

1. Opening a .graph file

In depthmapX 0.50 64-bit Windows, run in Parallels on a Mac, I cannot open .graph files (through the open command in the programme). I had the same problem in the mac version, too, until I happened to find out that making depthmapX the default programme for .graph files made them openable. Yet, that sometimes I need to repeat this default programme setting (even if it is already set to depthmapX) to make it work.

1.+2.
I have to work between the windows and mac versions - one imports dfx, but cannot open graph files, the other opens graph files but cannot import dfxs.

Program Shutdown I cannot export any format

Dear All,
I use windows 10 for DeptmapX latest version but I cannot save or export any format. Even when I tried to save an empty screen it still has the same problem. Would you please help me to solve this problem?
Thanks

NEW BUG_Segment map_Everything is no longer visible when we use Selection to layer

When I try to get a subset group of segment elements out of a segment map by using
Edit-->Selection to layer

I get the subset as a separate layer , but I no longer can view Everything.

Exporting selected pixels

Hi!

I have a question about exporting data. If I select an amount of pixels in the Map View , and then go to the table window, i can see that the selected pixels are checked. Is there any chance to export just the data selected to a *.txt file ?

Thanks a lot!

What's the definition of "Visual Depth" between two points?

How to manually calculate the visual depth between two points?

What if there are multiple ways to get visually connected? as, you can turn left or turn right ,and then see the same element, how to deal with it?

I can't read the source code, what's the algorithm of visual depth?and visual integration?(basic idea is enough for me)

Could not obtain local measures in Visibility analysis

Hello:
I am having trouble in obtaining local measures for visibility analyses. Please see attached image for details on configuration. All I get is:

Ref Number
Connectivity
Point First Moment
Point Second Moment
Visual Integration [HH]]

I want measures like Cluster coefficient but they do not appear after the analysis. Tried in Depthmap 10.15 with exactly the same parameters and it worked.

Thanks in advance for any help on this issue.

Best regards,
Renato.

Cannot save any .graph file

Hello,

I am using Windows 10 on my laptop. I can not save any .graph files with "depthmapX-0.6.0_win64". Everytime I try to save something, depthmapX is shutdown. What could be cause to this problem? By the way, it is not about the file names, i already checked them.
I would be glad if you can help.

NEW BUG_Visibility graph analysis_radius field is not working

When opening the visibility graph analysis 'Analysis Options' window and go to 'calculate visibility relationships section', I checked the 'include global measures' and tried to enter n or a number in the field associated but I could not type anything.

NEW BUG_The table window is not working properly

When opening the table window I cannot see any values in there even though the map (segment/axial) is activated and contains a reasonable number of elements. I can only see empty fields. The number of empty fields does not correspond to the number of elements I have in my graph. Similar to the problem with the scatter plot window I can no longer close the table window. If I try to, Depthmap will ask me if I want to save the file before closing.

Clean up warnings

In a drive to improve code quality and find potential bugs/leaks earlier, get rid of all warning and turn on treating warnings as errors.
This might be a long running task...

Update OSX 10.9

Hello,

Could someone please provide a Mac OSX 10.9 Mavericks update. It's unable to run on the new system and is required urgently.

Thanks for any help...

Cannot save or open .graph files on Windows 10

I am trying to use this program on Windows 10, and it is unable to save or open .graph files. This means I fundamentally can't use the program. Please fix this immediately.

The scatter plot window cannot be closed once it is open

This is a minor issue. When launching the scatter plot window, I can no longer close the window. When I try to close it, Depthmap asks me if I want to save the file before closing. I can still, however minimize the window and go back to the graph.

depthmapX for Linux

Dear Tasos,
Thank you for creating depthmapX. It's a very interesting software.

In the spacesyntax website it says that it is possible to use depthmapX on Linux. I didn't find this option nor instructions for compiling it on Linux. Is it possible to use it on Linux and what are the dependencies?

All-line axial map sometimes blows up in Step 1 of 3

When trying to create an all-line axial map, the app sometimes sticks on "Step 1 of 3", when normally, that step takes only a couple of seconds. If it sticks there, the app eventually crashes. This behavior either always or never happens for a given imported DXF file, so the problem is dependent on the content of the DXF.

DepthmapXnet

hello,
Is the source code of DepthMapXnet available somewhere ?
I would like to use the QGIS plugin on linux and there is no build for DepthmapXnet.
Thanks for your help,

NEW BUG_Window-->Tile option is not working

Normalized angular choice (NACH) /Normalized angular integration (NAIN)

I am a beginner in the space syntax. I do not know how to extract the values of the NACH and NAIN for multiple radii , I need a help or any video teach me how to get these values.
any thing can help

space syntax newbie:

Hi Sir Jorge,

my name is wani and i am very keen to learn how you integrate space syntax with QGIS. its very interesting and interactive way to corporate these two together. i wanted to study something on city urban layout and their movement pattern of people and i am sure your space syntax tool QGIS plugin could help and support in my study.

my QGIS version is 2.8.8 wien and i downloaded the space syntax plugin in the QGIS. however, at the Map tab, it cant seem to find my layer to axial_new? what went wrong? can you help me going through this problem? thank you so much.

also i tried to download the depthmapXnet window version however, it would look like this and idk how to go from here

and i went to click on the depthmapX.exe

then something like this came out

so i wanted to know if this file corrupt or okay? does it effect the space syntax plugins in the QGIS

NEW BUG_Buttons are not activated for connectivity measure in VGA

Two buttons; Push values and Invert colour range, are not activated for the connectivity measure in VGA.

Point isovist

Hi,

I would like to know how to import points from Auto CAD to Depthmap for point isovist analysis. I tried with dxf format, but it did not work.

Isovist Properties

when calculating the isovists properties in depthmapX it only calculates the area. what about the length, perimeter, etc?

Visualising agents movement in 3D view

Hi there,

Whatever the plan I'm using I can't seem to get the 3D view to work. It had worked in previous versions of the software but it doesn't anymore. I might do something wrong but even with the tutorials, I cannot find a way to solve this issue.

The agent analysis works perfectly fine (through analysis of the visual map and so on...) but not the 3D visualization and its related features such as dropping an agent, pausing its movement, etc.

Any idea why this is ?

Many thanks in advance,

Quentin
