Dear Ted, I think my question also belongs to this topic, though ... From a specific example to a general question: the points applied to the pt3dadd() function can be relative, an example below taken from the Neuron Book. soma { pt3dadd(0, 0, 0, 30) pt3dadd(30, 0, 0, 30) } apical { pt3dadd(0, 0, 0,...

Dear Ted,

What is the hoc command to export a PlotShape from NEURON into a publication-ready figure ?

For instance, like the Figure 3a in one of Magee's recent papers ?

Thanks.

Dear Ted, The impedance example works, thank you. Though it brought up another issue which I didn't run into because I always used to simulate with run() command. In hoc, after setting up a Vector. objref vec vec = new Vector() vec.record(&soma.v(0.5)) Both run() and while (t <= tstop) { fadvanc...

Dear Ted,

Is that possible for record impedance with the Vector.record function in the hoc ?

for example, something similar syntax like that to avoid putting it in a loop ?
vec.record(&soma, imp.input(0.5))

Thank you

thank you for beating this.

Dear, There are 3 spine methods default in hoc, getSpineArea(), setSpineArea() and spine3d() ? For example, basically to get spine area, one may spineArea access spinehead for (x) spineArea += area(x) access spineneck for (x) spineArea += area(x) which is the conventional way to get spine area. So m...

Hi Ted, It turns out: "An instance of the Graph class manages a window on which x-y plots can be drawn by calling various member functions. The first form immediately maps the window to the screen. With a 0 argument the window is not mapped but can be sized and placed with the view() function.&...

It works ! One minor non-functional thing on this example. Case 1: just g.size, it would bring up ONE panel with default size and g.sized coordinates. It works fine. g.size(-1, 1, -1 ,1) Case 2: use g.view, this would bring up TWO panels then, one with wanted size and coordinates. It works perfect, ...

Dear Ted, I got this line-Graph example from the documentation. objref g g = new Graph() t = 0 g.addexpr("sin(t)") g.xexpr("cos(t)") g.begin() for(t=0; t<=2*PI+0.1; t=t+0.1){ g.plot(t) } g.flush() But is it supposed to display the circle on the panel ? didn't see any, confused ...

It works normal again, when I put things in template ... which is even weirder ...
Let me diagnose it and confirm again myself before "wasting" your time on this.
thank you Ted for the reply.

Dear Hines, I am surprised, that no previous posts asked about this question ... but ... I confirmed this quite a few times, trying to get rid of every possible loads on Python. When running a small model, the time difference is tolerable, so I didn't notice that before ... I just found that running...

thank you Ted for pointing out chapters, I guess diam3d() is the correct way to print out edge diam then :)

Dear, Given this simply example, I would expect that diam(0)=5 and diam(1)=1, don't understand why diam(0)=diam(0.1) and diam(0.9)=diam(1) ? Thank you. create dend access dend dend { pt3dadd(10, 0, 0, 5) pt3dadd(10, 10, 0, 1) nseg = 5 } print L, diam(0) print L, diam(0.1) print L, diam(0.3) print L,...

Dear, I came across a function called "fstim()", it works quite handy, it helps to see the doc string though. The current document refers to it as: Consider this obsolete. Nevertheless, it does work. See the old NEURON reference manual. So just a general question, where can we see this &qu...

Hi, I am aware that Function Table works when one gives e.g. an array of voltage and an array of variable value. I want to know what is the linear fit equation behind that ? Basically I don't want to use such Function Table thing, instead just define a function inside the mod file. How I can do that...
