STNET (CCP4: Supported Program)

NAME

stnet - Generate stereographic net plot for use with polarrfn

SYNOPSIS

stnet plot file.plo

DESCRIPTION

The PLOT84 plot file on logical name PLOT is a stereographic net intended to be printed on a transparency for overlaying on the plots produced by polarrfn to measure them. The plot file may be converted to PostScript or HPGL for printing (resetting line width) with pltdev:

   pltdev -i PLOT -lnw .2

Print the PostScript file plot84.ps on your laser printer and photocopy the stereographic net onto a transparent sheet.

BUGS

The diameter shown in the title (currently 17.1cm) assumes you are using size A4 paper. If not, the diameter should still come out the same as your plots from Polarrfn. Just edit the title in the call to PLTCTX and recompile. However if you want to make a net with a specific diameter, you'll have to unravel the mysteries of PLOT84 yourself - it probably involves fiddling with the window parameters (see DATA statement for array W in the source).
