MODIFYING LABELS

MODIFYING LABELS

Multiple curve labels may be edited using the Search and Replace option to enter the string to search for and the string to replace it with ^ can be used to insert text at the beginning of a label while $ can be used to append to the end of a label. The table below shows the effect of 4 search and replace examples.

	Example 1	Example 2	Example 3
Original Label	Displacement N1034	Time	iso18571-a1.1-cae1	iso18571-a1.1-cae1
Search String	N1	$	*	*
Replace String	Node 1	(s)	ISO_A1.1
Modified Label	Displacement Node 1034	Time(s)	ISO_A1.1

The GO button will initiate the search and replace on all the curves that are currently selected (highlighted in the bottom half of the menu), while the UNDO button can be used to reset the labels to what they were before the search and replace.

Pressing the right mouse button while over the Line Label button will invoke a popup menu that allows the label that is being modified to be swapped between the Line Label , X-Axis Label and the Y-Axis Label .

Line labels can also be modified by using the dialogue box.
