Hi
I would like to have mathematical operators accessed from a table ie. the minus
in the red expression - in the following function to +.
update fluids
set flow_arrow_ithe_geom =
( select (st_translate(graphics.utilities_dgm.the_geom,
st_x(p_id.p_id.ithe_geom) -
(ST_distance(p_id.p_id.the_geom, p_id.p_id.ithe_geom)/
(graphics.ip_matrix.flow_arrow_divider)) -
st_x (st_startpoint(graphics.utilities_dgm.the_geom)) ,
st_y (p_id.p_id.ithe_geom) -
st_y (st_startpoint(graphics.utilities_dgm.the_geom))))
from graphics.utilities_dgm, p_id.p_id, p_id.processes
where p_id.p_id.process_id = p_id.processes.process_id
and p_id.processes.fluid_id = fluids.fluid_id
and graphics.utilities_dgm.utilities_description = 'Arrow_Flow_Direction'
and graphics.utilities_dgm.orientation = p_id.p_id.ip_orient )
from p_id.p_id, graphics.ip_matrix, p_id.processes
where ST_GeometryType(p_id.p_id.ithe_geom) = 'ST_Point'
and graphics.ip_matrix.ip_number = p_id.processes.ip_number
and p_id.processes.fluid_id = fluidid
and graphics.ip_matrix.spatial_ref = p_id.p_id.proc_graphic_position
and (p_id.p_id.number_of_ips > graphics.ip_matrix.ip_total
or p_id.p_id.number_of_ips = graphics.ip_matrix.ip_total)
and p_id.p_id.process_id = p_id.processes.process_id
and p_id.processes.fluid_id = fluidid;
I've attempted to replace the minus with the expression
(graphics.ip_matrix.factor) which leads to the math operators column.
I get an error at the first bracket.
Is there a way around this other than a second function containing the +
operator??
Bob
