Hello, I'm on the newer end of programming, and web2py has been my first (and very happy) foray into web application development. I am developing an application to remotely control two spectrum analyzers (HP 3562A) in our lab to do swept sine and power spectra plots. The connection is made using sockets, and the data is dumped, modified, and plotted using numpy, scipy and matplotlib. The examples I have found that do this do not mention how to store the resulting plots on disk but rather plot in real time when required. What I would like is to have a results table with all the run parameters (for both sweeps and PSD) and have a thumbnail image (I know how to generate a thumbnail if I have a parent file) that links to the original plotted image. Is this possible, or am I approaching this the wrong way?
Thank you.
