Curve(...)

This method creates an XYCurve object from an XYData object.

Path

session.Curve

Required arguments

name: A String specifying the repository key.
data: An XYData object specifying the data for the curve.

Optional arguments

None.

Return value

An XYCurve object.

Exceptions

InvalidNameError.

setValues(...)

This method modifies the XYCurve object.

Required arguments

None.

Optional arguments

displayTypes: A sequence of SymbolicConstants specifying that describe how curves are to be displayed. Possible values are LINE and SYMBOL. The default value is (LINE).
legendLabel: A String specifying the label to be displayed in the legend. By default, the label is system defined.
symbolFrequency: An Int specifying the frequency of plotting the markers. Possible values are symbolFrequency $>$ 0. If symbolFrequency=1, then markers are plotted at every point. The default value is 1.
useDefault: A Boolean specifying whether to use the system supplied legend label. The default value is ON.

Return value

None.

Exceptions

None.

Members

The XYCurve object can have the following members:

name: A String specifying the repository key.
symbolFrequency: An Int specifying the frequency of plotting the markers. Possible values are symbolFrequency $>$ 0. If symbolFrequency=1, then markers are plotted at every point. The default value is 1.
useDefault: A Boolean specifying whether to use the system supplied legend label. The default value is ON.
data: An XYData object specifying the data for the curve.
lineStyle: A LineStyle object specifying the line properties used to display the curve.
curveOptions: A CurveOptions object specifying the line and symbol properties used to display the curve.
areaStyle: An AreaStyle object specifying the properties of the area to diaply the curve.
symbolStyle: A SymbolStyle object specifying the symbol properties used to display the curve.
legendLabel: A String specifying the label to be displayed in the legend. By default, the label is system defined.
displayTypes: A tuple of SymbolicConstants specifying that describe how curves are to be displayed. Possible values are LINE and SYMBOL. The default value is (LINE).
