Plot 2d viewer toolbar gives fast access to the following operations:
Dump View - exports an object from the viewer in bmp, png, jpg or jpeg image format.
Fit all - scales the display to show the entire scene. Use this to resize the scene so that it could fit within the Viewer boundary.
Fit area - resizes the view to place in the visible area only the contents of a frame drawn with pressed left mouse button.
Zoom - allows to zoom in and out.
Panning - if the represented objects are greater that the visible area and you don't wish to use Fit all functionality, click on this button and you'll be able to drag the scene to see its remote parts.
Global panning - allows to define the center of the scene presenting all displayed objects in the visible area.
Draw Points - represents points on the graph.
Draw Lines - represents lines on the graph.
Draw Splines - represents splines on the graph.
Horizontal axis logarithmic - changes the scaling on horizontal axis to logarithmic.
Vertical axis logarithmic - changes the scaling on vertical axis to logarithmic.
Show Legend - reveals all verbal and numerical information on the graphs.
Settings - calls a menu, in which you can specify advanced settings for your Plot 2d Viewer.
Clone view - opens a new duplicate scene.
The options are as follows:
-
Main title: the title of the XY plot. By default, it will consist of the names of the tables, on the basis of which the curve lines have been constructed.
-
Curve type: you can select from Points, Lines and Spline.
-
Show legend: here you can define the position of the description table on the XY plot (to the Left, to the Right, on Top or on Bottom).
-
Marker size - size of the points (markers) forming curve lines.
-
Background color of the XY plot.
-
Scale mode: here you can select the type of scaling (Linear or Logarithmic) along X (Horizontal) or Y (Vertical) axes.
You can define settings for each axis separately:
-
Horizontal or Vertical axis title.
-
Grid/Axes marks: here you can define the maximum number of major and minor scale divisions for a specified axis. The real number of intervals fits to {1,2,5}*10^N, where N is a natural number, and doesn't exceed the maximum.
-
Save settings as default: If this check box is marked, all XY plots will be displayed with these defined properties.
