1-D Data Visualization

Full Article

This Brief describes the various types plots  that can be created by Mira for visualizing 1-D data. Also see the 1-d Fit package included in Mira MX.

Mira users demand the kind of plots that scientists and engineers make, not the kind made by business graphics software. Therefore, Mira's 1-D plotting architecture was designed to efficiently and effectively work with data sets consisting of many points, many images, and many series. Mira can create representations like step-line plots and x/y error bars. Plots can also be printed on any printer supported by Windows to obtain publication-quality hardcopy.

Although most plots are made from data in an Image window, plots can also be generated from tabular measurements and by using the extensive and versatile collection of plotting functions in the Pro Script module. Not discussed here are topics like scripted plots, working with plot data, plot commands, toolbars, plot attributes, etc.
