Line Context Menu

 

Introduction  Previous page  Next page

 

Lines are typically found on 2D graphs. You can change most of a line's properties via its context menu.

 

Figure: The line context menu in SVAR opens when you right click on a line in a graph.

 

On the line context menu you'll find the following tools:

 

Color: Change the color of a line via a color picker dialog.
Type: Select the line type. You can choose between solid, dashed, dotted, dash-dotted and none. The last option makes a line invisible. To make such hidden lines visible again, click on the "Show Hidden Lines" item on the Tools Menu; see Menus for details.
Width: Select the line width. You can choose between 1 up to 10 points.
Marker: Select the line marker. You can choose none and 13 alternatives, ranging from plus signs, circles, to hexagrams.
Marker Size: Select the size of markers for a line. You can choose in the range of 1 point up to 16 points.
Edit Data: Opens the Edit Data dialog. This function is not available for 3D-lines.
