You can right-click on the graphical display area of the XY Plot screen to
access special functions.

Use the Save As option to save the current graph to a windows bitmap file
(*.bmp) or windows metafile (*.wmf) format. Use the Copy function to copy
the current graph to the Windows clipboard. This copied bitmap can then be
pasted into other programs.

Select the Options function to change the Graphing Options. For more
information about viewing and changing the Graphing Options, see the
section entitled Using The Special Options of the XY Plot later in th chapter.

Use the Print Preview option to preview and possibly print the current graph
to a selected printer. Use the Print option to print the current display state of
the graphical area without any preview.

Selecting the Clear option will clear the display. It is the same as pressing the
Clear button (see description of the Clear button above). Selecting the Sync
Data
option performs the same function the Sync Data button does (see
description of the Sync Data button above). Selecting the Start/Stop option
will start or stop the display of points on the XY Plot (see descriptions for the
Start and Stop buttons above).

options, etc) to a file or Load Configuration to load a previously saved graph
configuration.
