In this article, we will explain about all menus at the menu bar of RINEARN Graph 3D.
The menu item to open and plot graphs. Please specify paths of all files you want to plot by clicking "OPEN" button for all files you want to plot, and then click "PLOT" button to plot them.
The menu item to plot data on the clipboard copied from spreadsheets, text files, etc. Please paste data to the textarea from the clipboard and click "PLOT" to plot it.
* This menu item is also available from right-clicking menus.
The menu item to export the current graph image to a file. Please input the file name to "File Name" text field, and input the location in which the file will be saved to "Location" text field, then click "SAVE" button. The file format will be determined automatically from the extension-part of the file name. PNG(.png), JPEG(.jpg), and BMP(.bmp) formats are available.
The menu item to cleat the current graph.
The menu item to set X/Y/Z ranges of the graph. Please input min and max values to text fields.
The menu item to set labels of X/Y/Z axes.
The menu item to set colors (used when "Gradation" option is disabled) for each data-series.
The menu item to set fonts used for drawing scales, labels, etc.
Please be careful about licenses of fonts if you use graph images for publishing. Sometimes fonts different with specified fonts will be used as alternative fonts when specified fonts are not compatible with this software or it does not contains required characters for drawing the graph. Please check that specified fonts are used correctly in the graph image before publishing, etc.
The menu item to set angles, the distance, and the magnification of the camera. You also can switch ON/OFF of the perspective effect.
The menu item to set designs and formats of scales.
You can select the design of the frame from "Frame" selectbox.
The width of the interval between scales (and grid lines) can be specified by the value of "Number of Sectors" text field.
If you want to modify the format of numbers of scales, please disable "Auto" checkbox in "Format" column and inout a formatter text to the text field.
In addition, you can control visibilities of scales by enabling/disabling checkboxes in "Visiblity" column when "Auto" checkbox in that column is disabled.
The menu item to control the direction of the light and reflective parameters.
The plotting option for connecting coordinate points by lines.
The plotting option for drawing points at locations of coordinate points.
The plotting option for drawing tiny dots at locations of coordinate points.
The plotting option for connecting coordinate points by meshes.
* Data should be described in mesh-representable formats to use this plotting option.
The plotting option for connecting coordinate points by membranes (quadrangle polygons).
* Data should be described in mesh-representable formats to use this plotting option.
The plotting option for drawing contour lines.
* Data should be described in mesh-representable formats to use this plotting option.
The option to color the graph by the gradation which respects to Z values.
The option to fill background of the graph screen by black. If you disable this option, the background color will be white. The black screen is suited for displaying on PC monitors, and the white screen is suited for printing on papers.
The option to make the graph semi-transparent.
* This option makes the rendering processing heavy.
The option to make the graph plotted by using "With Membranes" option smooth by interpolating coordinate points of vertices.
* This option makes the rendering processing heavy, and requires a large amount of memory allocation.
The option to reverse directions of X/Y/Z axes.
The option for plotting the graph with logarithmic axes.
