In the Plots view, you can specify the default plot settings used to produce plots from simulation results.
The 窶廚hart type窶 popup menu is used to select the default chart type used in line charts, bar charts and column charts. Available options are:
窶｢ Single plot
窶｢ Double plot
窶｢ Mean ﾂｱ st.dev.
窶｢ Fractiles
窶｢ Contingency
The 窶彜ingle plot窶 option is used when only one statistic, e.g., the mean value, is plotted for each selected data node. The default statistic to plot is controlled by the 窶廡irst plot窶 popup menu.
The 窶廛ouble plot窶 option is used when two statistics, e.g., the mean value and base value, are plotted together for each selected data node. The default two statistics to plot are controlled by the 窶廡irst plot窶 and the 窶彜econd plot窶 popup menus.
The 窶廴ean ﾂｱ st.dev.窶 option is used to make diagrams where the mean value, the mean value minus the standard deviation and the mean value plus the standard deviation are all plotted together.
The 窶廡ractiles窶 option is used to make diagrams where the three fractiles in the currently selected fractile set are all plotted together.
Finally the 窶廚ontingency窶 option is used to make diagrams where the three contingency levels, calculated according to the currently selected contingency settings, are all plotted together.
The 窶廡irst plot窶 popup menu is used to select the default statistics plotted in single plots. This menu is also used to select the default first of the two statistics plotted in double plots. Available statistics are:
窶｢ Base
窶｢ Mean
窶｢ St.dev.
窶｢ Min
窶｢ Max
窶｢ Inp.mean
窶｢ Loc.mean
窶｢ Inp.base
窶｢ Loc.base
窶｢ Slope
窶｢ Interc.
窶｢ Covar.
窶｢ Correl.
窶｢ Cr.mean
窶｢ Cr.var.
窶｢ Sn.mean
窶｢ Sn.var.
窶｢ Lo.fract.
窶｢ Md.fract.
窶｢ Hi.fract.
窶｢ Lo.cont.
窶｢ Md.cont.
窶｢ Hi.cont.
The 窶彜econd plot窶 popup menu is used to select the second of the two statistics plotted in double plots. If the chart type is not 窶廛ouble plot窶, then this menu is neglected when the plot is made. Available statistics are the same as for the 窶廡irst plot窶 popup menu.
The 窶彁ero oriented窶 checkbox is used to control the default procedure used to construct 窶徑ine charts窶, 窶彙ar charts窶 and 窶彡olumn charts窶.
A zero oriented line chart is one where the scale on the value axis is chosen such that zero is always included. Otherwise the value axis may or may not include zero depending on the plotted data.
In a zero oriented bar or column chart all bars or columns start at zero. If a bar or column chart is not zero oriented, the way it is constructed depends on the chart type. In a single plot the bars or columns start at a suitable location depending on the plotted data. In a double plot there is one bar or column for each selected data node describing the range between the values of the two chosen statistics. In the remaining chart types there is one split bar or columns for each selected data node describing the ranges between the three statistics.
The 窶弃arameter窶 popup menu is used to select the default statistic plotted in pie charts. Available statistics are the same as for the 窶廡irst plot窶 popup menu.
The 窶弖alues used窶 popup menu is used control the default way of handling negative values in pie charts. Since negative values cannot be represented in a sensible way in a pie chart, DynRisk needs to apply some sort of rule to deal with such values. There are two possible options you could choose between:
窶｢ Abs. values
窶｢ Pos. values
If the 窶廣bs. values窶 option is selected, DynRisk will replace all negative values by their absolute values. Thus, if e.g., a data node has mean equal to -10.7, then in a pie chart of means this data node will get a piece of the pie corresponding to the value 10.7.
If the 窶弃os. values窶 option is selected, DynRisk will replace all negative values by zero. Thus, if e.g., a data node has mean equal to -10.7, then in a pie chart of means this data node will not appear in the pie at all.
Note that in cases where all the statistics either are zeros or converted to zeros (using the 窶弃os. values窶 method), it is impossible to construct a pie chart. In such situations you will get an error message.
Based on the set of result values for a 窶彭ata node窶, DynRisk assesses a default 窶徭cale窶 for this object. This scale is used to determine the axis in 窶彜-curves窶, 窶徂istograms窶 etc. To change the scale of a 窶彭ata node窶, select it by clicking its icon, and choose the 窶彜cale窶ｦ窶 command in the 窶彜et窶 submenu of the 窶廨allery窶 menu.
The way DynRisk handles scales is affected by the 窶廣utoscale plots窶 option. If you leave 窶廣utoscale plots窶 checked, DynRisk will use the current scale settings (i.e., either the default scale or the scale you specified using the 窶彜cale窶ｦ窶 command) each time you produce a plot. If, on the other hand, 窶廣utoscale plots窶 is unchecked, DynRisk will ask you to choose a scale before drawing the plot.
The 窶廣utoscale plots窶 option is temporarily reversed if you press the 窶彜hift key窶 on the keyboard while choosing the plot command from the menu or toolbar.
