In order to facilitate the use of a single chart style for multiple results, GoldSim allows you to use keywords (delimited by the % symbol) when you create and use chart styles. Keywords can be used in fields where titles or text is required (e.g., headers and footers, axis labels, legend titles). For example, the keyword %rname% inserts the name of the Result element being displayed, and the keyword %#real% inserts the number of realizations. We could insert these in a header, as shown below:
The keyword %rname% is actually the default header text for all results. It is hidden for interactive results (since there is no corresponding Result element).
This would appear in the chart as follows:
You can access the full list of keywords which are available by right-clicking in any Title or Text field in the chart style dialog.
A complete list of available keywords is provided below:
|

|
%filename% |

%filename_ex% |

1 If an interactive result is being displayed, this is ignored.
2 If the keyword is used in a location other than an axis title (e.g., a header or footer title), it simply appears as entered (e.g., %rlabel%) and is not replaced with a result label (as it would ambiguous as to which label to use).
3 If the axis data is dimensionless, or if it represents a date/time, the keyword is ignored. If the keyword is used in a location other than an axis title (e.g., a header or footer title), it simply appears as entered (e.g., %unit%) and is not replaced with a unit (as it would ambiguous as to which unit to use).
4 Displays total number of completed realizations, even if some are currently screened. In Scenario Mode, if all of the displayed scenarios do not have the same number of completed realizations, N/A is displayed.
Note that some of these keywords are used as defaults. For example, all result displays use %rname% in the Header, and the axis titles use both %rlabel% and %(unit)%.
