Additional commands on the right side of the graph:
Close |
Closes the dialog windows and returns to the main window of GUI |
Help |
Launches online help for a given dialog window |
Next |
Browses to the next graph of a particular graph sequence |
Previous |
Browses to the previous graph of a particular graph sequence |
Export |

Two list boxes at the top of the x-y graph dialog window provide various combinations of graphs that are possible to display (Table 11 of the User Manual). Browsing through various graphs is additionally also enabled using the Previous and Next command. Double-clicking at various objects of the x-y graph (e.g., axis, title, captions, legend) will allow users to redefine them, i.e., to change their text, colors, or fonts. When the right mouse button is clicked above the graph a pop-up menu will appear that will also allow users to redefine various objects of the x-y graph. One can for example change the text of both vertical and horizontal axis (Axis->Title) captions and titles (Title), their fonts, and colors, one can copy the content of the graph to the clipboard (Copy) for later paste in various other windows applications (e.g., MS Word, PowerPoint, or Excel), or one can change the thickness and colors of displayed lines. Many other modifications of the displayed x-y graph are possible. Data displayed in the x-y graph can be exported into an ASCII file using the Export command. The x-y graph settings can be saved using the Save command.
The x-y graphs have only a limited capacity and can display at most 6,000 data points and 20 lines. If a dataset to be displayed has more data points then allowed, then automatic selection is made by the program (only each n data point is displayed) and a warning (File is too big to be displayed entirely! Automatic selection has been made.) is issued. If the number of observation nodes is larger than 20, only the first 20 observation nodes are displayed.
