====== Background, straight line segments - and a version 4 bug ====== Many users want to draw their background; here's a way to connect points together to form a background using fit_obj's. First define the macro's: macro Bkg_Straight_Line_xy(n, x, y) { prm !bkg_x_##n = x; prm !bkg_y_##n = y; } macro Bkg_Straight_Line_First(n, x, y) { Bkg_Straight_Line_xy(n, x, y) } macro Bkg_Straight_Line(n1, n2, x2, y2) { fit_obj = (X - bkg_x_##n1) ((y2)-bkg_y_##n1)/((x2)-bkg_x_##n1) + bkg_y_##n1; min_X >= bkg_x_##n1 + 1.0e-9; #m_ifarg x2 "X2" max_X >= x2 + 1.0e-10; #m_else max_X <= x2 + 1.0e-10; #m_endif Bkg_Straight_Line_xy(n2, x2, y2) } Then graphically gather (x,y) points and form the straight line segments as follows: DAT(y2o3a) Bkg_Straight_Line_First(0, X1, 322) Bkg_Straight_Line(0, 1, 22.0, 205.0) Bkg_Straight_Line(1, 2, 25.6, 188.6) Bkg_Straight_Line(2, 3, 36.9, 142.5) Bkg_Straight_Line(3, 4, 45.5, 149.8) Bkg_Straight_Line(4, 5, 67.5, 126.0) Bkg_Straight_Line(5, 6, 88.6, 158.9) Bkg_Straight_Line(6, 7, 100.7, 179.0) Bkg_Straight_Line(7, 8, 108.1, 171.7) Bkg_Straight_Line(8, 9, 112.0, 162.6) Bkg_Straight_Line(9, 10, 130.6, 217.4) Bkg_Straight_Line(10, 11, X2, 280.0) This describes a background for the Y2O3a.INP file which can be found in the test_examples directory. Note, in doing the above macros a bug in the interpretation of the >= and <= signs for min_X/max_X have been uncovered. The macros as defined above will work in version 4. Version 5 will have a different combination of the >=,<= signs and the macros would be inside of TOPAS.INC. --- //[[alan.coelho@bigpond.com|Alan Coelho]] 2011/08/25 19:09//
