CPlot:GetX

The GetX method returns the x value of the point at an index in a plot series.

x, success = CPlot:GetX( nIndex )

nIndex is the index of the plot series, from 1 to CPlot:Count.

x is the x value of the point.

success is a boolean value and is true if the index is valid. This second argument may be omitted if the index is known to be valid.

On failure 0,false is returned.

The following script gets the x value of the 15th point in plot series 1 of a CPlotView on the Mira desktop:

V = attachlist_plotview()	-- select the target plot window
if V == nil then Exit() end	-- if not successful, exit the script
P = V:GetPlot(1)	-- get a CPlot object for series 1
if P == nil then Exit("Bad series") end
nIndex = 15	-- choose the point at index 15
x, success = P:GetX( nIndex )	-- get the x value at nIndex
if success then
Printf("x[%d]=%lg\n", nIndex, x)	-- print the results
else
Printf("Index %d is out of range\n", nIndex)	-- bad index
end
