Step 8Screenshots of seamonkeys! Making sense of the data.
(I ended up using seamonkey, spawn of netscape composer to do my html table. It is an old build but it seems to work.)
I think the movie files give people ideas and hints about how to progress with their designs but they are a moving target. What you need is something steady on paper so you can compare results.
I made my first huge picture file by combining a bunch of jpeg pics from rendered shots of the different solar cookers. But WAY TOO TIME CONSUMING! Has to be much easier.
Someone suggested a html table solution. (I did not know you can put a pic into a table but you can)
So all you need is to make a html file in you folder with all your pictures, make a table and insert the pics into the html file as a grid!
And if you are clever, and name your pics from the AOI movies that you render something like a.jpg,b.jpg,c.jpg,d.jpg,e.jpg,f.jpg etc, the movie will spit out a0001.jpg, a0002.jpg etc for your first row, b0001, etc for your second column etc. Then all you have to do is make the table once and just paste the html file into new project folders and just change the names of the types of dishes when you edit the html. Then for a permanent low bandwith file, just take a screenshot of the html table in your computer or make a pdf file of it.
Here is my screenshot of my first attempt below (the pic looked great in my browser before I uploaded, perhaps it is saved on instructables at lower resolution?) Anyway, it is good for now
The screenshot is of 6 hours of time as the sun moves over the dishes
