Removing Graphs

You can remove graphs from the Approximation Viewer. The method for removing a graph varies based on the type of graph you are removing.

Important: If you are selecting a component that is in a Task Plan, you must select the component using the model explorer.

  1. Select the component whose approximation you want to visualize.

    • From the Design Gateway,

      • Select a component on the Sim-flow tab or in the model explorer, and click the Approximations button on the component title bar.
      • Right-click the component on the Sim-flow tab or in the model explorer, and select Approximations.

      The Approximations dialog box appears.

      1. In the Activated column, select the approximation that you want to visualize.
      2. Click Visualize.

        The Approximation Viewer dialog box appears.

        Tip: You can also access this interface from the Approximation Wizard after initialization by clicking Visualize. For more information, see Initializing Approximations and Viewing the Data.

    • From the Runtime Gateway,

      1. Select a component on the Sim-flow tab or in the model explorer.
      2. Click the Visual Design tab, and select the approximation from the list next to the component title bar.
      3. Click the Visualization subtab.

        The Approximations dialog box appears.

  2. From the Approximation Viewer or the Visualization subtab, verify that you are viewing the graphs in thumbnail format. If you are viewing a full-size version of a graph, double-click the graph or click to return to the thumbnail format.
  3. If you are removing a 2D graph, click the button on the right side of the 2D Graphs tab.

    The Add/Remove Graphs dialog box appears.

    1. Verify that the 2D Graphs tab is selected on the Add/Remove Graphs dialog box.

      The parameters that are currently being used to create the table of 2D Graphs are highlighted.

      Because two-dimensional graphs are created as a table, you cannot remove a single graph; you must remove an entire row or a column at a time.

    2. Deselect any of the highlighted parameters to remove graphs that use that parameter from the 2D Graphs tab.

      Note: If you want to keep all the other parameters in the area selected when you deselect a parameter, hold down the CTRL key on your keyboard when you click a parameter to deselect it. Otherwise, all the parameters in the area will be deselected.

    3. Click OK.

      Isight updates the two-dimensional graphs.

  4. If you are removing 3D Graphs, Contour Graphs, Local Effects graphs, or Global Effects graphs, do one of the following:

    • Select the thumbnail image, and click the button.

    • Right-click the graph, and select Remove Graph.

    Note: 3D Graphs, Contour Graphs, Local Effects graphs, and Global Effects graphs cannot be removed using the Add/Remove Graphs dialog box.
