dynamic - Injecting list of controls into manipulate



I am trying to program a method to manually move around graph vertices, and then output the new coordinates. I'd like to turn this into a function that can be called with a variable number of vertices, but can't figure out how to get manipulate to work, despite looking at a variety of examples, including https://mathematica.stackexchange.com/questions/59826/variable-number-of-controls-in-manipulate.


The code to set up the manipulate parameters and control specifications is:


Clear[vc0, el0, verts0, controls0, gr0];
gr0 = RandomGraph[{10, 21}];
vc0 = VertexCoordinates /. AbsoluteOptions[gr0, VertexCoordinates];
el0 = EdgeList[gr0];
verts0 = Table[makeVar["v", i], {i, 10}]
controls0 = Table[{{makeVar["v", i], vc0[[i]]}, Locator}, {i, 10}]

This gives me a nice list of vertex variables and Locatorspecifications with initial coordinates for the graph:



{v1, v2, v3, v4, v5, v6, v7, v8, v9, v10}

{{{v1, {0.589112, 1.61609}}, Locator}, {{v2, {1.45239, 1.55683}}, Locator},
{{v3, {0.914629, 0.269689}}, Locator}, {{v4, {1.55473, 0.213739}}, Locator},
{{v5, {0., 0.845834}}, Locator}, {{v6, {2.13173, 0.}}, Locator},
{{v7, {2.43365, 1.79731}}, Locator}, {{v8, {1.01283, 0.998538}}, Locator},
{{v9, {2.21884, 0.899871}}, Locator}, {{v10, {1.70324, 1.0327}}, Locator}}

If I cut and paste these into Manipulate the code looks like:


Manipulate[{Graph[el0, EdgeStyle -> LightGray, 

VertexCoordinates -> {v1, v2, v3, v4, v5, v6, v7, v8, v9, v10},
VertexLabels -> "Name", ImageSize -> Large];
coords = Grid[Partition[Flatten[Riffle[Table["v" <> ToString[i], {i, 10}],
VertexCoordinates /. AbsoluteOptions[gr5, VertexCoordinates]]], 3],
Alignment -> Left];
Row[{gr5, coords}]}[[1]],
{{v1, {0.589112, 1.61609}}, Locator}, {{v2, {1.45239, 1.55683}}, Locator},
{{v3, {0.914629, 0.269689}}, Locator}, {{v4, {1.55473, 0.213739}}, Locator},
{{v5, {0., 0.845834}}, Locator}, {{v6, {2.13173, 0.}}, Locator},
{{v7, {2.43365, 1.79731}}, Locator}, {{v8, {1.01283, 0.998538}}, Locator},

{{v9, {2.21884, 0.899871}}, Locator}, {{v10, {1.70324, 1.0327}}, Locator}}]

Coordinate Rearrangement


What I really want is a more general solution which looks like:


Manipulate[{Graph[el0, EdgeStyle -> LightGray, 

(* vertex variables here *)
VertexCoordinates -> pts,

VertexLabels -> "Name", ImageSize -> Large];

coords = Grid[Partition[Flatten[Riffle[Table["v" <> ToString[i], {i, 10}],
VertexCoordinates /. AbsoluteOptions[gr5, VertexCoordinates]]], 3],
Alignment -> Left];
Row[{gr5, coords}]}[[1]],

(* controllers specified here *)
controls0]

I keep getting the error message: Manipulate::vsform: Manipulate argument controls0 does not have the correct form for a variable specification. >>


I have tried HoldAll, Sequence, etc., but cannot seem to figure out how to generate the proper form for the controller specifications.



Apologies for the long post, and thanks in advance!



Answer



It's much simpler


f[g1_Graph] := 
DynamicModule[{pts = PropertyValue[{g1, #}, VertexCoordinates] & /@ VertexList@g1, g2 = g1},
{Dynamic@Column@pts,
LocatorPane[Dynamic[pts], Dynamic[g2 = SetProperty[g2, VertexCoordinates -> pts]]]}]

g = CompleteGraph[5, VertexLabels -> "Name", PlotRange -> {{-5, 5}, {-5, 5}}];
f@g

plotting - How to draw lines between specified dots on ListPlot?

I would like to create a plot where I have unconnected dots and some connected. So far, I have figured out how to draw the dots. My code is the following: ListPlot[{{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4,13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full] I have thought using ListLinePlot command, but I don't know how to specify to the command to draw only selected lines between the dots. Do have any suggestions/hints on how to do that? Thank you. Answer One possibility would be to use Epilog with Line : ListPlot[ {{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4, 13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full, Epilog -> { Line[ ...

equation solving - Invert and fit implicitly defined curve

I need to fit an implicitly defined curve. I thought I could get some data out of Solve , and then using FindFit . Therefore, I would like to find the relation the parametric curve defined by $F(x,y)=0$: Solve[-(1/2) + 1/2 (0.41202 BesselK[0, 0.1 Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]] + (0.101483 x BesselK[1, 0.1 Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]])/Sqrt[x^2 + y^2]) == 0, y] But I can't get an output: Solve was unable to solve the system with inexact coefficients or the system obtained by direct rationalization of inexact numbers present in the system. Since many of the methods used by Solve require exact input, providing Solve with an exact version of the system may help. >> Edit: In particular, I would like to fit the data coming from the curve with the expression of another curve, and not with a function $f(x)$. In particular, since this clearly looks like a cardioid , I would like it to fit to something like it. What other strategies could I try?

dynamic - How can I make a clickable ArrayPlot that returns input?

I would like to create a dynamic ArrayPlot so that the rectangles, when clicked, provide the input. Can I use ArrayPlot for this? Or is there something else I should have to use? Answer ArrayPlot is much more than just a simple array like Grid : it represents a ranged 2D dataset, and its visualization can be finetuned by options like DataReversed and DataRange . These features make it quite complicated to reproduce the same layout and order with Grid . Here I offer AnnotatedArrayPlot which comes in handy when your dataset is more than just a flat 2D array. The dynamic interface allows highlighting individual cells and possibly interacting with them. AnnotatedArrayPlot works the same way as ArrayPlot and accepts the same options plus Enabled , HighlightCoordinates , HighlightStyle and HighlightElementFunction . data = {{Missing["HasSomeMoreData"], GrayLevel[ 1], {RGBColor[0, 1, 1], RGBColor[0, 0, 1], GrayLevel[1]}, RGBColor[0, 1, 0]}, {GrayLevel[0], GrayLevel...
