cannot do Configure Tracks in Timeseries Viewer

Posted by Kitty at 2010-02-09 09:41  

Hi,<br>I would like to view a time-series graph synced with a media file. I followed the instructions in the online manual: I linked the time-series datafile (which is a text file in the format timestamp (in seconds) followed by a whitespace followed by a numerical value) to the media file (via Linked Seconday Files -&gt; Set Associated With...) and the Timeseries Viewer now shows up. However, when I select Configure Tracks the following message pops up: There haven't been any configurable time series sources defined. Plus, I cannot set the range for the panel: Set Range for Panel -&gt; BasicTrack-0 does not do anything.<br>What's wrong?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Kitty<br>

It sounds like something went wrong when reading the file.
For this kind of files, by the way, there is no user interface available to configure tracks (I believe); the range is derived from the data and a random color is given.
Maybe you could try to convert the text file to a csv file (replace the whitespace characters by ; characters) and link again? You may also send the file to me so that I can check where things go wrong (han.sloetjes AT mpi.nl).

Ah, thanks! I replaced the whitespaces with commas, and it works OK now. Thanks!<br>-Kitty<br>
