spectrogram time picks
2011-06-29 00:59:22
Hello, Is there a way to pick times off the spectrogram figure that SAC creates? or is there a way to extract the spectrogram it plots as a matrix so that I can use it to pick times with an external program? I am using SAC 101.4 As a test I tried picks command after spectrogram as follows but it didn't work. r file spectrogram window 1 slice 0.5 order 100 cbar sqrt method mem ymin 0 ymax 2 color picks T3 C T4 C W 0.05 H 0.3 Thanks ! Januka.

Cannot Exit Plot
2011-06-27 15:48:10 - 2011-06-28 01:56:04
Hello, I am working with SAC currently and when I have a plot open, I cannot close it no matter what. I tried the 'quitsub' command but it is giving me a "sh:quitsub not found" error which is strange because I tried 'fft' and that worked. I am trying to quit the plot because I want to change directory but as long as a plot is open I don't think it will let me. What can I do? Thank you for your help.

SAC with shell script
2011-06-27 22:40:38
Hi, Is there any possibility that SAC developers could add documentation on calling SAC within a Shell script to the SAC User guide? This is an area I repeatedly had problems with and haven't found a robust solution yet. The external documentation that I have found online haven't been that helpful either. Thank you. Januka.

Dear Zheng, Thank you for your fast reply, zoom is one of the option but it is not what I am looking for, Basically, Graphical window of SAC pop up in a default size, I want to enlarge this graphical window, I mean, I want larger pop up graphical window. One of the way doing this, change my computer screen for example using 23 inc screen, but I suppose pop up large graphical window will do the same effect without change my screen.

Dear SAC users, I am using SAC for my seismogram analysis. I prepared a SAC macro which help me see the wave forms and pick the arrival times. My question is when I read my data with read command in sac and plot them with ppk, a Graphic window is opened and I can see the wave forms but my computer screen is not so big so that I have difficulty to see exact time of arrival time. I am using my mouse to get larger of Graphical window. but the ne wave forms open small size. What I want … [more]

All sac users: I am a beginner here, so I would like to ask some questions, I hope some advanced user of sac can help me with my doubts about transfer command. 1. I have a seismogram waveform which is velocity record from velocity transducer. I have the response instrument read with rdseed and the RESP.* is the velocity response, but the pole zero is displacement response. My question: When I apply trans from polezero ..., using that polezero obtained from rdseed, do I get the velocity ground … [more]
