Preferences

Hi Lee- I think the closest thing available is adding GET variables to the URL, e.g.:
http://marbl.github.io/Krona/examples/phymmbl.krona.html?font=15

If that works for you, the best way to see what's available is just using the "link" button in a chart. There is no chart size variable, unfortunately.

Thanks Brian! It's something I can do short term. If I can figure it out (big if), would you accept a pull request for cookies or command line parameters?

[ondovb]

Definitely! The code is not well documented but I can try to walk you through anything that doesn't make sense.

Hi! I think it would be very nice to have those preferences (or any other) also available through the Krona XML specification. Maybe I can help with that part. I am currently working in a python interface to Krona by the 2.0 XML specification so I would see very interesting to have all the new functionality available this way. So, Brian, if you find this also useful, I would be glad to contribute!

[ondovb]

Sure, anything through the command line would pretty much have to alter the XML spec. It should stay backwards compatible as long as we're just adding things though.

[lskatz]

I defer to @khyox if he or she knows how to code this! Or was your offer for only the documentation?

[ondovb]

I can answer any questions about the code or architecture as needed. @khyox do you want to propose the xml changes here, and if it works for @lskatz move forward with a PR?

[khyox]

@ondovb, @lskatz, all right, so I understand that the XML spec should be changed as a prerequisite for including those options in the command line, is that right? In that case, yes, I think we had better clarify here the xml changes that include those options (and maybe some other) and then try to go ahead with a PR.

[lskatz]

That can work. From what I can tell it might be easiest to work through ktImportText since I mostly want to embed the defaults into the file. All I can tell so far is that I would want to mess with writeTree()

[ondovb]

That's right. More specifically, dataHeader(), called from writeTree(). You can see there is already a collapse option that functions more or less how we want, but is not exposed to the command line.
