Peter Edwards became interested in Adam Tofilski's DrawWing program and decided to produce an Excel spreadsheet for use with it that would import the DrawWing results file and do the collation and analysis.
MorphPlot has been written by adapting the existing BIBBA spreadsheet MORPH30.xls it is intended as an add-on for DrawWing. The adaptation and improvement of existing software is the true ethic of software writing, not copying or infringement as some modern software authors prefer to think.
The revisions detailed below have been collaborated on by Peter and Adam, during this process DrawWing has gone from 0.32 to 0.4 to 0.42, the errors relating to the calculation of Hi and the classification of the sample have been resolved - and DrawWing now opens .jpg files.
Revision history of MorphPlot:-
Date Ver. Action 26/06/07 1.0 created for 'DrawWing 0.32' (which did not calculate the Hi accurately). 01/07/07 1.1 added macros to automate extraction of the data and to clear results. 04/07/07 1.2 modified for 'DrawWing 0.4' (which calculates the Hi correctly) and added analyses for Hi. 06/07/07 1.3 tidied fonts and instructions. 11/07/07 1.4 Increased scale for distribution graphs from 20 to 30. 16/07/07 1.5 tidied fonts and instructions. 23/07/07 1.6 Corrected validation error for HI. 23/07/07 1.7 Modified validation routines, Updated instructions with note on using DrawWing in step-by-step mode.
