What do you mean by "switch of anti-aliasing" ? Concerning your suggestion of create rectangles instead of circles, why not... I'll test it. I don't understand neither your last suggestion. What I do is to generate the file using Batik, so each circle is written inside a loop (creating the circle element and append it to the svgDocument)... Could you explain more your advide to "build your svg fragment with ALL cricles and append it once to the dom instead of appending each circle." ? Thanks a lot. Julie
"Andre M. Winter - Carto.net" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> a écrit : hi julie, there is no real workaround. ("trop c'est trop.") some possibilities although: - switch of anti-aliasing - try to render rectangles rather than circles. if they are that small that won't make any difference. i did some tests a year ago with randomly generated basic shapes. in order to render 5000 rects, ASV3/IE takes ~4sec. the same 5000 with circles takes ~18sec. but you wont be happy with your 36000 items anyway. 20000 rects -> ~12sec, 5000 rects ~25sec. (test were done on the same machine, an old PIII 750mhz, but the on a newer machine, the differences stay. - what's the monster image.gif in there. btw. GIF is not to be supported by viewers according to the specification - pregenerate your files and hardcode your circles. the generation precess itself takes time to. if you really need this, build your svg fragment with ALL cricles and append it once to the dom instead of appending each circle. a+ andré -- ___________________________________________________________________ andre m. winter, cartography for internet and multimedia applications schiessstand 4/1, a6091 goetzens, tyrol, austria tel.: ++43.5234.32732 email: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://www.vectoreal.com/> SVG consulting and development <http://www.carto.net/> online cartography focusing on SVG <http://www.carto.at/> print and online touristic map solutions julie gautier wrote: >Thanks for your quick answer. > >In my svg file, I have first a javascript section that contains an array that >have the same nb of lines (36000) >Then here is a part of my svg file section where circles are drawn : > ><svg x="5" y="5" width="600px" height="550px" viewBox="-98726 -98726 1238168 >1134010"> ><g> ><rect x="-98726" y="-98726" width="1238168" height="1134010" >style="stroke:black; stroke-width:1031; fill:black"/> ><g> ><image id="image" xlink:href="image.gif" x="-98726" y="-98726" width="1238168" >height="1134010" style="visibility:visible;"/> ><g id="Symboles" style="stroke:none; stroke-width:1031" >onmouseover="mousover(evt);" onmouseout="mousout(evt);"> ><circle id="symb0" cx="537169.48" cy="4524.21" r="35127.501810942" >style="fill:rgb(152,358,0)"/> ><circle id="symb1" cx="474671.64" cy="182166.81" r="32215.4700637596" >style="fill:rgb(58,452,0)"/> ><circle id="symb2" cx="696750.44" cy="769029.75" r="29526.822949676" >style="fill:rgb(295,215,0)"/> ><circle id="symb3" cx="653162.5" cy="511552.63" r="27364.2687989864" >style="fill:rgb(307,203,0)"/> ><circle id="symb4" cx="471007.34" cy="0" r="26407.6201989595" >style="fill:rgb(138,372,0)"/> ><circle id="symb5" cx="467575.06" cy="183184.15" r="26155.1226014087" >style="fill:rgb(226,284,0)"/> ><circle id="symb6" cx="484623.01" cy="175353.69" r="25894.6173775417" >style="fill:rgb(118,392,0)"/> ><circle id="symb7" cx="437859.34" cy="186683.17" r="25405.8633691262" >style="fill:rgb(265,245,0)"/> ><circle id="symb8" cx="243907.63" cy="626090.12" r="24624.8970883142" >style="fill:rgb(367,143,0)"/> ><circle id="symb9" cx="379548.22" cy="92507.34" r="24440.4508132736" >style="fill:rgb(168,342,0)"/> ><circle id="symb10" cx="483975.64" cy="190959.26" r="24342.4206115673" >style="fill:rgb(154,356,0)"/> >... ></g> ></g> ></g> ></svg> > >I use the Adobe SVG viewer on IE6, on Windows XP, 2.6 GHz and 1Go RAM. > >And I do need to display those 36000 circles : the eye can't see them >individually but can have a global view which I don't want to reduce... >Thanks again for your help > >Julie > ----- To unsubscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -or- visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers and click "edit my membership" ---- --------------------------------- YAHOO!
