Displaying 1D Data
The Simplest Plot
- Load “MAR11060”.
- Right click the workspace in the workspace list.
- Select “Plot Spectrum ...”.
- In the dialog that appears enter “1-3” in the spectra number box.
You should get a plot like this with three spectra corresponding to
spectra 1-3 (which in this case these are the monitors on MARI):
Another way to plot
- Load MAR11060.raw, but this time set SpectrumMin to be “100” and
SpectrumMax to be “200”. Because the values are inclusive, we are
actually loading 101 spectra, starting at 100.
- Display the matrix window to view the data:
- In the matrix window highlight rows 0-2 and bring up the right-click
menu:
- Select multiple rows using one of the following methods:
- Click the first index label, and then hold shift while selecting
the last.
- Click and drag down the index labels to select as many as you
want.
- Click while holding Ctrl to select / deselect individual rows.
- You will presented with 3 options for plotting the selected spectra,
which are plotting with and without errors or plotting the spectra as
a waterfall. The latter option is only available if more than one
spectra has been selected. Select “Plot Spectra” (showing the values
only):
Notice the legend entries “MAR11060-sp-100”, ..., “MAR11060-sp-102”,
where “sp” is shorthand for spectrum.
Adding a curve to an existing plot
There are two ways to add spectra to an already existing graph, either
from the same workspace of from another.
Drag and Drop
- Drag the Workspace from the Workspace List and drop it onto the graph
you want to add the curve to.
- If the Workspace contains more than one spectra you will be asked
which you wish to add to the plot.
From Another Plot
- Create a plot containing the spectra or curve you want to import into
your destination plot.
- In the destination plot double click the “1” in the top left.
- In the “Add/Remove Curves Dialog” that appears, select the data you
want from the available data, and click “->” to add it to your plot.
