[Tutor] pyExcelerator and Graphs
Hey friendly users, I have been using pyExcelerator for a short period now, and I'm very satisfied with the results. There is one thing that I just can't do thought, and that is making graphs. I want to add a column (horizontal) type graph. Does anybody know how this can be achieved? Thanks in advance for reading this!

In the readme this is listed as a future feature. Kent ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
[Tutor] pyexcelerator
Are their docs anywhere for pyexcelerator? the built in docs are a bit lacking.For instance I can't figure out how to set a column width.I am just reading the examples and they kind of help but I don't follow this ... ws.col(i).width = 0x0d00 + iwhere i is an incrementing integer.so to me it reads if i = 0.set col 0's width to hexnumber plus 0why the hex number? does it have to be written this way? ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Maybe just try without the 0x0d00 and see what happens? or try the pyExcelerator mailing list on SourceForge...

Mailing list looks dead only 2 messages.Man this is the exact module i need to finish converting about 20 scripts from perl and I have no idea how to use most of it. This is very frustrating. Is there another excel writer module that has documentation?Or on a broader topic is their a CPAN equivalent? Paul ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Is there another excel writer module that has documentation? If you are running on Windows and have Excel installed you can talk to Excel using COM. Take a look here: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/pythonwin32/chapter/ch12.html If no one on tutor knows about this you can probably get help with COM on the python-win32 list or comp.lang.python.

Nothing has to be written in hex. Judging from some of the modules the author used hex a lot. I just looked at my copy of PyExcelerator. It seems to be in poor shape. I tried running some of the modules that have if __name__ == '__main__': (i.e. self-testing) and they failed with errors! And I find no visible documentation or working examples. Sigh. The only thing I've used it for is parsing an existing Excel Workbook. -- Bob Gailer 510-978-4454 ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

And I find no visibledocumentation or working examples. Sigh.You might want to check out the recent source from sourceforge its seems very functional and it has a bunch of examples. Not very useful for ones as far as I am concrened. I have not tried to run the modules by themselves.I hate the idea of having to pass or make a call to a perl script to handle the excel stuff its just seems wrong. I wish there was some kind of *open* format that i could write the spreadsheets to that both open office and excel 2000/2003 could read natively.

I have not yet updated my development machine to 2.4. - look through the past releases on sourceforge - ask on the pyExcelerator list - hack the current release to work on 2.3 - most of what is new in 2.4 can be done fairly easily in 2.3 Kent ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
Re: [Tutor] pyExcelerator for Python 2.3
there is a patch submitted there that you can apply to the current release to make it compatible with 2.4. Thanks lots Poor Yorick. ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
