Options Tab (New Calculated Column)

You can set or edit the appearance for a defined column using the Options Tab.

Point Protectors: A point protector is a distinctively-shaped marker placed on top of a data point. Point protectors can be used to identify runs or sensors, or simply to make points more visible.

Selecting Auto means that a graphed column of data will have about eight point protectors.


Color:  Assigns a color to the column and associated data.


Error Bar Calculations: This can also be adjusted from the Column Options Window.  In this style of 2D Range Plot, the ranges or error bars are defined by the raw values in the selected variables. The midpoints are represented by point markers.


Displayed Precision: Selects the displayed precision of data table entries in terms of significant figures or decimal places.  Select a number from the drop-down menu for either significant figures or decimal places.

Check the box next to Use Scientific Notation to have your data displayed in terms of a decimal number between 1 and 10 multiplied by a power of 10. The scientific notation of 10,493, for example, is 1.0493 × 104
