Creating a Digital Plot
A digital plot is a 2D, x-y graph of simulation results.
Note:
You must define a solution setup before creating a digital plot.
Follow this procedure to create a digital plot:
- Select Twin Builder > Results > Create Standard Report > Digital Plot. The Report dialog box appears.
- In the Context section, make selections from the following field or fields, depending on the design and solution type.
- Solution – Lists the available solution types.
- Domain – Whether this field appears, and
the domains listed depend on the solution type and the <type>
selected. The domain can be Sweep, Spectral, or Time.
If you select Spectral, additional fields display in which you can make settings for plotting spectral domain data.
- Optimetrics setup – Lists all defined Optimetrics analysis setups.
- Select Quantities – Click to open the Select Quantities dialog box in which you can select additional quantities for plotting.
- Under the Trace tab, Y component section, specify the information to plot along the Y-axis:
- Category – Select the type of information to plot.
- Quantity – Select the value to plot.
- Function – Select the mathematical function of the quantity to plot.
- Value field displays the currently specified
quantity and function. You can edit this field directly.
Note:
The text color shows whether the expression is valid (blue for valid expressions; red for invalid).
