Display Options – These options are used to set the look of the graph itself.

The Background Color selects the color of the graph background. This is white

by default. Be careful to select a background color that does not make any of

the data traces disappear.

The Left / Right Grid Colors select the color of the grid lines that go with the

left or right axis scale. The X-Axis color sets the color of the X-Axis.

Data Direction – This option determines how the data values will populate the

graph – right to left (oldest data on the left and newest data on the right) or left

to right (oldest data on the right and newest data on the left).

Title – Allows you to place a descriptive title over the top edge of the graph

and for each axis. Enter the text of the title in the text box, then click the Show

Title check box to make the title visible. Click the Font button to choose the

font style, size and color for the title.

NAN Options Tab
The NAN Options tab of the Graph Display Options dialog box is used to

specify how NAN (Not-A-Number) values will be represented in the graph.

Ignore NAN – If this option is selected, the NAN is not represented on the

graph. There will be one continuous line in which the data points adjoining the

NAN values will be bridged

Plot NAN as gap – When this option is selected any NAN value in the data

will be represented by a discontinuity. This means that the data points on either

side of the NAN will not be connected by a line. There will be breaks in the

line for each NAN in the data.
