Evening, all

This is about Windows Radiance, and of possible interest to rad-openstudio, although I'm not cross-posting.

When attempting to use bgraph.exe with the following lux.plt file:

----------------- 8< -----------------
include=line.plt
title="Working Plane Illuminance"
xlabel="Distance from Window"
ylabel="Illuminance [lux]"
Adata=lux.csv
Acolor=2
----------------- 8< -----------------

I get this error message:
bgraph: lux.plt: File not found: line.plt

Under LINUX, line.plt is stored under $RAYPATH/meta

The Windows (as in NREL) Radiance distribution doesn't come with lib/meta, so I copied it across. Still no luck.

echo %RAYPATH%
.;C:\Program Files\Radiance\lib

I have found that there is a bit of inconsistency with file paths under Windows, so I also tried

set RAYPATH=.;C:/Program Files/Radiance/lib
echo %RAYPATH%
.;C:/Program Files/Radiance/lib

but again to no avail.

My questions therefore are:
a) Where does bgraph.exe look for line.plt?
b) Windows radiance ships with bgraph.exe, but not with the $RAYPATH/meta dir. Does this mean that bgraph.exe (with psmeta and ghostview, of course) isn't actually that useful? What can it do?

Many thanks for your thoughts.

Have a lovely Sunday evening

Axel
