Input Curves

Input Curves

By Curve ID

A number of the menus require a range of curves to be selected. When a range of curves has to be selected a menu containing a list of the available curves will be displayed (see figure, below).

A range or curves may be selected by either

  1. Click on the first item and hold down the mouse key, drag the mouse to the last item in the list. All items between the first and last including the first and last are selected.
  2. Click on the first item, hold down the SHIFT key and click on the last item in the list. All items between the first and last including the first and last are selected.

VISIBLE (P)age

This option will select all of the curves that are unblanked in any graph on the current page.

VISIBLE (A)ll Pages

This option will select all curves that are unblanked in at least one graph.

PICK

Alternatively curves may be picked from the screen. With this option the left mouse button is used to select curves while the right button deselects curves. As each curve is selected/deselected its name and number will be reported to the user and it will be highlighted on the screen.

A range of curves can be selected interactively by dragging out an area on the screen while holding down the left mouse button.

FILTER...

This option can be used to filter the list of curves displayed by model. When this option is selected a list containing all of the current models in T/HIS is displayed and the models can be selected or deselected. Any curves that belong to a deselected model will then be filtered out of the curve list.

SHOW GROUPS

This option will display a list of the currently defined curve groups instead of curves

By Curve Group

In addition to selecting individual curves it is also possible to select curves by Curve Group if they have been defined.

  • If a curve is defined in more than one group then it will be selected if at least one of the groups is selected.
  • If more than one group containing the same curve is selected then the curve will only be counted once as an input curve.

By Command Line

In command line mode a single curve may be selected by typing in a range. A valid syntax is:

A single curve number e.g. #27
A "from":"to" range e.g. #10:#30 (no gaps, " : " mandatory)
A compound list in "(..)" e.g. ( #1 #2 #10:#30 #3 #97 )

In all contexts the order in which a group is defined does NOT influence the order in which it is processed. It is ALWAYS processed in ascending sequential order.

Thus the addition operation

/OP ADD (#30 #20 #10) (#1 #2 #3) #40

will produce the results

#40 = #10 + #1

#41 = #20 + #2

#42 = #30 + #3
