Hi Mariano,
If you think the colors are not easily pinpointing the highest values, then play with both
the hue and the brightness of the color.
In CodeCity's age maps, I use a color range from a light yellow (for small values of
the metric, in my case the age) to dark blue (for the highest values). This will allow you
to quickly spot the darkest parts in the system, which would correspond to the highest
values. Look at the screenshot, I guess it shouldn't be too difficult to obtain
something similar in Mondrian.
Cheers,
Ricky

Hi Folks...Sorry for the "urgen" but I
got an idea for my paper with deadline tomorro hahahahah
I was using DistributionMaps where the containers were packages for example, elements
classes, and properties the amount of instances. For example, see the attached
screenshot.
Now....it is difficult to find the classes with most instances since I need to search for
an specific color.
I am not sure I understand what it is difficult:
hi
- because the mapping color <-> range does not match your expectations (like red
would be highest, blue would be lowest)
I guess because of this one. For example, take a look to the screenshot I attached. If I
want to search the most instantiated classes, I should serach colors like Brown or Pink.
But they are not easily shown....and of course, I have lot of colors...then I can to go
with my "eye" looking carefully each package and looking for those colors.
This is why I thoguht that CodeCity would be cool, in the sense that for this case it
would be easier since the property would represent the height of a building...and it is
easier to notice heigh than a color.
I am trying now LinearDistributionMap and I think it can help :)
- or because you are looking for one class with the most instances
- or because you want to compare the real values, not ranges.
I thoguht that having someting like CodeCity can be interesting. I would like:
- EAch building (square) is a container -> package
- Each little squeare (that has heigh) is a element -> class
- The heigh is a property, in this case, the amount of instances for example.
Then I can easily see packages/classes with several intances easily (the highest ones).
So...is that possible? how easier? :)
Right now I was doing my DM something like this:
I checked for *City* class in Moose 4.1 but I didn't find anything :(
The only thing I found was this link:

Thanks for any help
