Problem
cfish & fcfish crash
The error seems to happen during png output generation.
graph "Demo_importance" . {
edge A B {}
edge B C {}
edge A C {}
view cfish
}
pfish doesn´t want to show nodes
Is that a bug or a feature? Or must one set importance to some value?
Reply
The cfish/fcfish crash has been fixed, but the nodes are now missing in these examples, too. We're trying to figure that one out right now.
As a (funny but useless) side note, we found out that the crash only occurred on 32-bit machines, not on 64-bit ones.

- Update: the nodes are no longer missing, a new version of aiSee will be made available shortly. However, there are still some node placement irregularities when exporting fish-eye views. I am not sure these can be completely ironed out in aiSee 2.x -- and in aiSee 3.x, fish-eye views have been dropped altogether. At the end of the day, I don't think that's a huge loss for Wgraph anyway -- while fish-eye views are a useful navigation technique in the context of a rich GUI, they are basically useless in the context of a static image.

- I agree. Fisheyes are most useful for fish when swimming around in the ocean of many nodes and edges. Not so much for fish who sit back, relax and draw a plan of the ocean ... Gero 15:37, 22 November 2007 (CET)
