Data Visualization
The Data tab plots the time-series data recorded for an experiment.
The left sidebar lets you select the data to show:
- a list of the experiment's devices, and
- a list of the available traces (the individual measured variables).
The right sidebar (Plot Options) controls the appearance of the plot:
| Option | What it does |
|---|---|
| Show errors | Overlay error bars/ranges on the data. |
| Show points | Draw the individual data points in addition to the lines. |
| Time axis | Plot against absolute date & time or elapsed duration. |
| Color | Color the traces by device or by label. |
| Legend | Where to place the legend (or hide it). |
| Font Size | The base font size of the plot. |
Above the plot are the data and navigation controls:
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Fetch data | Retrieve the most recent data from the database. |
| Reset cache | Clear the local data cache (only needed if the experiment configuration changed). |
| Show all | Zoom out to show all of the data. |
| Move back / forward | Pan the time axis. |
| Revert | Go back to the previous view (double clicking the plot has the same effect). |
| (Re)plot | Redraw the plot with the current selection and options. |
| Download plot | Save the current plot as an image. |
| Download data | Export the plotted data. |
You can also drag horizontally across the plot to zoom into a time window, and use the card's full-screen button to expand the plot to the whole window.
