I made this manipulateble LogLogPlot:

man = Manipulate[
  LogLogPlot[
   Evaluate[
    Table[(c (4.13*^19 a + 4.13*^19 c) + 
        10^b (1.36*^18 + 
           c (1.36*^18 + 4.15*^16 a + 
              4.15*^16 c)))/(2.05*^17 a + 
        2.05*^17 c + 
        10^b (6.82*^15 + 2.06*^14 a + 
           2.06*^14 c)), {b, 1., 5, 1}]], {a, 10^-3, 
    10^3}, PlotLegends -> Table[ 10^b, {b, 1, 5, 1}]], {{c, 1/100}, 0, .1}]

enter image description here

I want to share this with my colleagues, using multiple manipulation sliders. Things are moving away from the cdf browser plugin, so I thought to use the cloud. However If I run CloudDeploy[man] I get a link with a page showing a red box: enter image description here

What can I do to make this work?

Edit: In other Browser I see an error "BigNumber Error: new BigNumber() number type has more than 15 significant digits: 41300000000000000000" as described by kuba

    $\begingroup$ After a quick look, the reason are big numbers that JS can't handle, don't know how to fix it in general. $\endgroup$ – Kuba♦ May 11 '18 at 16:07
  • $\begingroup$ @Kuba, ok I could try to see wether I can rescale the numbers. seems like it sould be below $2^{53}$ $\endgroup$ – Ruud3.1415 May 11 '18 at 16:11

$\begingroup$

As we discovered Cloud's FrontEnd can't handle big numbers so well. Pity because the controller does not really operate in those ranges.

You can only ask WRI Support about this issue, or design your Manipulate in a way that it will work with Log values. This gets too cumbersome in general.

Alternatively, I started a toy project for deploying CloudCDFs based on custom interface. Your example works well (sometimes I have an issue that ticks are missing but it is Cloud's fault anyway.

So follow installation steps in https://github.com/kubaPod/MVue

and run:

Needs@"MVue`"

CloudDeploy[
  MVue["ExportFunction" -> "SVG"] @ Manipulate[
    Plot[
      Evaluate[ Table[
        (c (4.13*^19 a + 4.13*^19 c) + 10^b (1.36*^18 + c (1.36*^18 + 4.15*^16 a + 4.15*^16 c))
        )/(2.05*^17 a + 2.05*^17 c + 10^b (6.82*^15 + 2.06*^14 a + 2.06*^14 c))
      , {b, 1., 5, 1}
      ]]
    , {a, 10^-3, 10^3}
    , PlotLegends -> Table[10^b, {b, 1, 5, 1}]
    ]
  , {{c, 1/100}, 0, .1}
  ]
]

  • $\begingroup$ Thanks! This is amazing! One problem I do have with this solution though is when I want to share this. When I set permissions to "Public" or "rx" the plot does not seem to load. $\endgroup$ – Ruud3.1415 May 23 '18 at 13:58
  • $\begingroup$ @Ruud3.1415 very strange, it should because CloudDeploy options are passed to api function too. $\endgroup$ – Kuba♦ May 23 '18 at 14:03
