Treemap class
Apr 8th, 2008, 5:54pm  
Hi,

I've recently downloaded the Treemap class Ben Fry made (http://benfry.com/writing/treemap/library.zip). For a research project, I'm on the lookout for new ways of presenting and navigating through folksonomies and this treemap concept seems ideal. The bundled reference files are quite exhaustive, but don't really present a concrete modus operandi.

The thing is, I don't really know where to begin. I'm quite new to Processing, but I studied and implemented the tutorials presented on this site and seem to got the hang of it a bit. Furthermore, I can rely quite heavily on the experiences of my thesis promotor, who's into Processing. I'm wondering if there's someone who already succesfully implemented this class? Is there some kind of example available? I've come accross the visualization of baseball salaries (which uses a different class, I believe), but that doesn't put me on the right track either.

Maybe someone could help me out? Thanks in advance!

Have you read the book? That's example code for "Visualizing Data", so it's not going to make much sense without the book chapter.

Didn't read the book, but we coped by studying the source code. Thanks, anyway!
