Chapter 2 Measurement Studio .NET Class Libraries© National Instruments Corporation 2-21 Measurement Studio User ManualWith the waveform graph and scatter graph controls and the classes thatinterface with the controls, you can perform the following operations:Plot Operations• Plot and chart arrays of double-precision floating point values, analogwaveforms, and complex waveforms.• Configure a graph to contain multiple plots to show separate butrelated data on the same graph.• Draw lines or fills from a plot to an X value, Y value, or another plot.• Specify plots in the scatter graph control as X and Y data. Specify plotsin the waveform graph control as X or Y data and optionally with dateand time scaling.• Use the extensible plot and plot area drawing capabilities and events tocustomize the graph appearance.• Use plot data tooltips to display X and Y coordinates when a userhovers the mouse over a data point.• Create custom point and line styles for plots.• Specify anti-aliased plots for plot lines.• Calculate and display error bands.Axis Operations• Configure a graph to include multiple axes or independent ranges sothat plot data fits the graph plot area.• Configure the axis modes to: fixed; autoscaling, including autoscalingbased on the visible data only; strip chart; or scope chart.• Use logarithmic axes with configurable bases.• Interactively change the range of an axis and invert the axis at run timeby clicking on the axis end labels.• Display origin lines.• Display captions on the axis.• Display grid lines.• Position the axis to display on one or both sides of the graph’s plotarea.• Configure major, minor, and custom divisions and origin lines.
