Create Graphs Easily with SigmaPlot!
- SigmaPlot´s Graph Style Gallery:
Save any graph with all graph properties
and add a bitmap image to the gallery to
create complex graphs.
- Graph Toolbar: select toolbar icon of the
graph type and style you want to create
or to add additional curves to an existing
graph.
- Graph Wizard: easy to use, step-by-step
wizard for helping you select a graph type
for your data.
- Default Graph Settings: set preferences
for graph options to create favorite graphs
quickly.
- Templates: create custom graph page templates
and store them for easy accessibility and
future use.
- "Intersections" are now supported
for area fills.
- Improved Graph Wizard: retains your last
settings. Click 'Finish Early' and
Gallery Graphs are all listed.
