Viewing a Vector Chart

If you have saved Final Values for a vector output, you can display the final values of the vector by right-clicking on the output (in a browser or the output interface), or the element (if the output is the element's primary output) and selecting Array Result… from the context menu.

By default, a Vector Chart will be displayed:

If you are viewing an Array Table, you can view a Vector Chart by pressing the Chart button at the top of the display.

Note: When viewing an Array Result element, the element “remembers”the last type of view that was displayed, and displays that view when you double-click on it.

By pressing the Rows… button from the Result Properties dialog for the Array result, you can select which items in the array are to be displayed (by default, all are displayed).

A row/column totals button is available at the top of the display window:

Pressing this button displays an additional bar with the total of al the row values:

Vector charts have several hot-keys which can be used to modify the plot:

Keys	Action
Ctrl+S	Switches between a bar chart and line chart.
Ctrl+W	Increases the width of the bars in a bar chart.
Ctrl-Shft+W	Decreases the width of the bars in a bar chart.

The following six hot-keys allow you to rotate and view the chart in three dimensions:

Key	Action
F6	Increases the depth (into the page) of the bars.
Shft+F6	Decreases the depth (into the page)of the bars.
F7	Increases the vertical inclination from which the chart is viewed.
Shft+F7	Decreases the vertical inclination from which the chart is viewed.
F8	Rotates the chart to the left.
Shft+F8	Rotates the chart to the right.

You can copy the chart to the clipboard by right-clicking in the chart, and selecting Copy from the context menu. Alternatively, you can press Ctrl+C while viewing the chart. To export a chart, right-click in the chart, and select Export… from the context menu.

By default, Array results operate on Final Values. That is, the display uses the values at the end of each realization. However, by defining Capture Times, you can display values at any specified time. If you have created Capture Times, an additional drop-list is added to the display window to allow you to select the set of data (i.e., the values at the specified Capture Time) that you would like to display.
