Most of the standard prefab parameters may be used.
You must specify data (the name of the input data file).
The clickmap parameters aren't available with this prefab. |
| x |
data field |
must be specified |
Identifies the data field that will hold X component for all curves. |
x=2
x=pmb |
y
y2
y3
y4 |
data field |
y must be specified |
Identifies the data field that will hold Y component(s),
y for the first curve, y2 for a second curve, and so on. |
y=3 y2=4
y=pmr |
| cats |
yes or no |
no |
If yes, X values are understood to be alphanumeric categories,
not continuous numeric values. |
cats=yes |
linedet
linedet2
linedet3
linedet4 |
linedetails |
thin lines in red, blue, green, and orange |
Controls the line style, color, etc. for up to four curves.
If doing multiple lines, you can specify linedet2 without having to specify linedet (etc), if you want.
|
"linedet= width=0.4 color=red"
"linedet2= width=0.4 color=blue" |
pointsym
pointsym2
pointsym3
pointsym4 |
symbol |
outlined square, triangle, diamond, and inverted triangle |
Controls the appearance of data points.
May be given as none for no point symbol.
If doing multiple lines, you can specify pointsym2 without having to specify pointsym (etc), if you want.
|
"pointsym= shape=circle style=outline fillcolor=pink" |
fill
fill2
fill3
fill4 |
color |
|
If specified, the area under the plotted line to be filled with the given color.
If doing multiple lines, you can specify fill2 without having to specify fill (etc), if you want.
|
fill=dullyellow |
| step |
yes or no |
no |
Render stairstep lineplot(s). Point symbols are turned off. Applies to all lines. |
step=yes |
| errcolor |
color |
black |
Error bar color. Applies to all lines plotted. |
errcolor=gray(0.6) |
| errwidth |
inches or cm |
0.08 |
Width of error bar tails. |
errwidth=0.12 |
| errthick |
line thickness value |
0.5 |
The thickness of the error bar lines. |
errthick=1 |
