SVGFig Description

Free tool for quantitative drawing in Python and SVG SVGFig is an open source Python based tool that lets you draw mathematical figures in Scalable Vector Graphics format (SVG), using the Python language.As a tool, its usefulness lies somewhere between freehand drawing programs, which don't give you quantitative control over your figures, and traditional plotting packages, which fit your data into a prescribed template. SVGFig allows you to draw anything you can express in Python.SVGFig is particularly suited to handle non-linear geometries. All lines, including the coordinate axis, curve if passed through a non-linear coordinate transformation, and coordinate systems can be nested in trees. This generalizes all the tools necessary for making plots, so it is easy to create polar plots of radial data, Hammer-Aitoff projections of the sky, translations in hyperbolic spaces, or experiment with new representations.SVGFig also maintains a convenient representation of SVG images as Python constructs, so you can load graphics from SVG files, dissect them, manipulate them with an automated script, and save them in batch. Requirements: · Python 2.4 or later
