Draco uses a single unified window to display all charts and plots
created by the user. The plot window provides a viewing interface for
graphics in Draco, allows modification of the graphics (dependent on the
plot/chart type), allows copying to other applications, and provides
facilities to export graphics to files. Like all Draco windows, the
plot window can be renamed on the fly to make tracking of child windows
simple for the user.
Usage
Draco plot windows generally look the same, although the contents can
change based on plot/chart type. An example is shown below:
The plot window can be resized at will, and the resulting graph is
always expands to fill the entire window.
All plot windows provide three major toolbar buttons, as shown
below:
The first allows the
plot to be saved to a file separate from the rest of the worksheet.
More information on saving plots is shown in the Saving Plots
page. The second button allows the current plot to be copied to the
clipboard as an image for easy sharing with other software. The
third button prints the current plot on a full page. The final
button opens the Plot Properties Dialog,
which allows the configuration of the current plot, including colors,
labels, and titles, among others.
