Section 6. View Pro

All histogram records from the same histogram will have the
same default name in the list. They can be distinguished by the
colored boxes next to their names. Each box is the same color
with which that histogram record is highlighted in the data file. It
is also the color with which that histogram record is displayed if
the “Use Selection Color” option is chosen in the Selection
Properties dialog box. The color associated with a histogram
record can also be changed from this dialog box. (The Selection
Properties dialog box is opened by clicking on the histogram
record in the list and then pressing the Edit button.)

NOTE

Deleting Records from a Histogram Display

A Histogram can be deleted from a graph by selecting it in the list of values
being graphed (on the left side of the graph window) and then pressing the
Delete button, by right-clicking on this name and choosing Delete Selection, or
by right-clicking on the record in the data panel and choosing Clear Selection.

6.7.2.2 Options

From the main Histogram screen, you can set the Histogram type to Area,
Histogram, Line, or Bar. You can use the arrow buttons to the right of Record
to scroll through records of the Histogram.

You can also determine whether the Histogram is viewed in 2D or 3D.
Selecting the 3D View check box will enable 3D View. Clearing the check
box will cause the Histogram to be viewed in 2D. When in 3D View, the
Number of Plots field will determine how many records are viewed in the
Histogram. In 3D View, scroll bars appear on the bottom and right of the
screen which allow the Histogram to be rotated.

You can also determine how the labels on the X-Axis are displayed. Select
Show Ranges to have ranges of data values shown on the X-Axis. Select
View Bins to have bin numbers shown on the X-Axis.

The Histogram toolbar includes the following icons:

Copy to Clipboard. Places the Histogram graphic on the Windows
clipboard. It can then be pasted into other applications.

Print. Prints the Histogram. Print options can be set before printing
begins.

Export. Allows the Histogram to be exported in a choice of text or
graphical formats.

Histogram Options. Opens a dialog box from which you can set
properties for the Histogram including scaling, colors, margins, titles,
etc. This dialog box can also be brought up by pressing the Options
