Re: Saving a JGraph object as SVG File

[Rana Khartabil]

Hello Thomas,

 

Thank you for your reply.

 

In my code, I actually declare 'SVGGraphics2D' object once (I either use the first one or the next one), but I forgot to comment one out when I pasted the code here.

 

I do not use any swing components to display the graph. I use JGraph ,which is an open source library that produces a graph of nodes and edges.

 

The funny thing is that if I use SVGGraphics2D svgGenerator = new SVGGraphics2D(document);, I get an SVG file that is big, but totally blank when I double click on it. There is also no scrolling capability.

 

However, if I use

SVGGeneratorContext ctx = SVGGeneratorContext.createDefault(document);
ImageHandler ihandler = new ImageHandlerPNGEncoder( "D:\\", null);

ctx.setImageHandler(ihandler);
SVGGraphics2D svgGenerator = new SVGGraphics2D(ctx, false);

I acutally get a smaller SVG file which has a part of my graph in it (a few nodes), and many other temp files which has the other parts of my graph. There is also no scrolling capabilities in the SVG file.

 

Do you know what the problem is?

 

Thanks,

Rana

Hi Rana,

Your code mostly looks ok, a few things looked a little
odd to me however.

First you declare 'SVGGraphics2D svgGenerator' twice!
so I might guess that you stream the first one and not the second.

Also you flush 'fos', but not 'out', you should flush 'out', then
flush 'fos' (then close fos). You might also want to look at what
it actually outputs - for example it might embed an image which would
be written to D: (but it might not be able to find it). For
Swing components you might want to use 'SwingSVGPrettyPrint' because
it will try to ensure that you don't just get Swing's double buffer.
