[DataViz] - Piechart2Val

Text Latest Grasshopper tooling experiment for data visualization. The script streams two sets of values (or more if desired) from an Excel spreadsheet via gHowl and maps data normalized on a two-dimensional piechart. First column values are distributed normalized along the inner chart to show ratios of the set. Additionally, the outer extrusion maps the second column normalized to a malleable minimum and maximum offset. Grab the GH definition and Excel sample file here and feel free to give me feedback in comments.


Text Note: this definition has been found to work with Grasshopper v0.80065 and gHowl r50 with the included OpenXMLSDK 2.0.

Hi David. Did you worked with gHowl before? It needs an installed version of open office on your machine. Additionally, I saved my table in '97-2003 compatibility mode.

Hi, I installed gHowl latest version and opened your source file. then, I make a excel file like yours. set this file to path component. but it didn't work. so could you share a sample excel file?

from the gHowl grasshopper page: The spreadsheet components leverage the OpenXML engine. You must have OpenXMLSDKV2.msi installed in order for these components to work. These components read and write *.xlsx files.

However, you can download the excel sample file here http://www.box.com/s/s6vx5sanr9gvs2reyzsy
