2:
3: The \textbf{curve} tag is where you set the data to be plotted by gnuplot.
4:
1.4 foxr 5: The following parameters may be present in the \textbf{curve} tag and allow
6: access to most of the formatting parameters for a curve in gnuplot.
7:
1.1 matthew 8:
9: \begin{itemize}
10:
1.4 foxr 11: \item color
1.1 matthew 12:
1.7 raeburn 13: The color of the curve on the plot. See ``Selecting Colors'' section
1.1 matthew 14: \ref{Authoring_Dynamic_Plot_Color_Selection}.
15:
16:
1.4 foxr 17: \item name
1.1 matthew 18:
19: If a key is present, the name of the curve will appear with a sample of its
20: line type.
21:
1.4 foxr 22: \item linestyle
1.1 matthew 23:
1.7 raeburn 24: See ``Line Styles'' section \ref{Authoring_Dynamic_Plot_Linestyle} for
1.1 matthew 25: more information about the available line styles and their data requirements.
26:
1.4 foxr 27: \item linetype
1.3 faziophi 28:
1.8 ! raeburn 29: The type of line. Current options include `solid' and `dashed'. At this time, all dashed lines draw with line width of `1' in web output. This parameter may not apply to all linestyles.
1.3 faziophi 30:
1.4 foxr 31: \item linewidth
1.3 faziophi 32:
33: The thickness of the line drawn by plotting engine. This parameter may not apply to all linestyles.
34:
1.4 foxr 35: \item pointtype
1.1 matthew 36:
37: This parameter may not apply to all linestyles.
38:
1.4 foxr 39: \item pointsize
1.1 matthew 40:
41: This parameter may not apply to all linestyles. The size of the points, in
42: pixels, present on the line. Some point types are not affected by this
43: parameter.
44:
1.4 foxr 45: \item limit
46:
47: This parameter controls the pont to fill for fillled curves.
48:
49: \item arrowhead
50:
51: For vector plots, controls where in the vector the arrow head(s) appear
52:
53: \item arrowstyle
54:
55: For vector plots controls the fill style of the arrow.
56:
57: \item arrowlength
58:
59: For vector plots determines the distance between the vector line end and the tip
60: of the arrow.
61:
62: \item arrowangle
63:
64: For vector plots, determines the angle the arrow branches make with the
65: vector line.
66:
67: \item arrowbackangle
68:
69: For vector plots, determines the angle the arrow lines that return to the
70: main line from the branches make with the arrow branches.
71:
1.1 matthew 72: \end{itemize}
73:
74: There are two ways of entering the information to be plotted, which are
75: accessed using the subtags of \textbf{curve}, \textbf{data}
1.7 raeburn 76: (see ``Plotting Data Points'' section \ref{Authoring_Dynamic_Plot_Curve_Data})
77: and \textbf{function}
78: (see ``Plotting Functions'' section \ref{Authoring_Dynamic_Plot_Curve_Function}).
