Plot Line Tool
The Plot Line tool will allow the user to plot a Line into the
"PLOT" section of the CIF Viewer. The user can plot this Line by itself
or on an axis using the Plot Axis Tool.
Using the Plot Line Tool
Drag and Drop the "Plot" tool from the ROTMain and into the plot box on the Plot Line tools inputs page. This results from using this tool will appear in the "Plot" section of the CIF Viewer.
The tool's Parameters page will allow the viewing options of the line to be changed.
ClearPlot: if this option is checked it will clear the plot screen completely before plotting this curve
Label: this allows the user to label the line.
Color:
the user can change the color of the curve for easier viewing by using
this option (just select on the color and a grid of colors to choose
from will appear)
Horizontal: if this box is checked than a
horizontal line will be plotted, if it is not checked than a vertical
line will be plotted
Position: the position of the line will
indicate exactly where the line should go on the axis (if it is a
horizontal line at position 300 then it will be across 300 on the
X-axis, if it is a vertical line at position 300 then it will be going
up from the Y-axis)
If the user would like to plot the line
within an axis the user needs to use the Plot Axis tool with it. The
Plot Axis tool will find the appropriate place to start and finish its
axis according to the line. A curve can also be implemented onto the
axis using the Plot Curve tool.
Example:
The
Clear Plot option was not checked because the axis was there first and
if the box was checked it would have deleted the axis. The line was
labeled as Oxygen Level. The color was changed to green. The horizontal box was
checked. The position was labeled at 300.
Color Coding is as follows:
Plot Axis tool: Blue
Plot Line tool: Green
Plot Curve tool: Red
