2D GRAPH

Guide Section: Diagramming
EASAP Tree:
USER INTERFACE > DIAGRAM LIST
OUTPUT > REPORT


A 2D GRAPH creates a plot from data stored within LISTs on the diagram pane of the USER INTERFACE or in the OUTPUT.

Line graphs are defined by specifying one or more child LINE DATA objects to a 2D GRAPH.

Likewise, contour plots are defined by one or more child CONTOUR DATA objects.

2D GRAPH has three default child objects:

A optional child LEGEND will add a legend.

Child objects of 2D GRAPH
CONTOUR DATASpecifies contour data to be plotted
LEGENDActivates a legend on a graph.
LINE DATASpecifies line data to be plotted
TITLESpecifies the main and sub titles of a 2D GRAPH
X AXISSpecifies the properties of the horizontal axis
Y AXISSpecifies the properties of the vertical axis

Under a REPORT a 2D GRAPH is presented to a User in one of two ways:

  • As an image file similar to a PLOT object
  • The 2D GRAPH's child TITLE with (optionally) a thumbnail as a link on: EASA > Results

The selection of the display method is controlled by Display: (Image or Interactive)

An example of a 2D GRAPH shown in a REPORT as a link is shown below.

A click on the thumbnail link will open separate window with the line graph or contour plot when: Display: Interactive

An example of one of these graph windows is shown below.
