VisualTable

A window with a table to show the current attributes of an object along the simulation. Each notify() overwrites the previous values shown in the table.

Arguments

• select: A vector of strings with the name of the attributes to be observed. If it is only a single value then it can also be described as a string. As default, it selects all the user-defined attributes of an object. In the case of Society, if it does not have any numeric attributes then it will use the number of agents in the Society as attribute.
• target: An Agent, Cell, CellularSpace, or Society.

Usage

cell = Cell{
    temperature = 20,
    humidity = 0.4
}

VisualTable{
    target = cell,
    select = {"temperature", "humidity"}
}

Functions

---

save

Save a VisualTable into a file. Supported extensions are bmp, jpg, png, and tiff.

Arguments

• #1: A string with the file name.

Usage

cell = Cell{
    temperature = 20,
    humidity = 0.4
}

vt = VisualTable{
    target = cell,
    select = {"temperature", "humidity"}
}

vt:save("file.bmp")
File("file.bmp"):delete()

---

update

Update the VisualTable with the latest values of its target. It is usually recommended to use the VisualTable as action of an Event instead of calling this function explicitly.

Usage

cell = Cell{
    temperature = 20,
    humidity = 0.4
}

vt = VisualTable{
    target = cell,
    select = {"temperature", "humidity"}
}

vt:update()
