plotCustomLayout#

Purpose#

Plots a graph of user-specified size at a user-specified location.

Format#

plotCustomLayout(x_start, y_start, width, height)#
Parameters:
  • x_start (scalar) – the distance from the left edge of the canvas to the left edge of the custom plot expressed as a number between 0 and 1.

  • y_start (scalar) – the distance from the bottom edge of the canvas to the bottom edge of the custom plot expressed as a number between 0 and 1.

  • width (scalar) – the width of the custom plot expressed as a number between 0 and 1.

  • height (scalar) – the height of the custom plot expressed as a number between 0 and 1.

Examples#

// Create an additive sequence starting from -pi and moving
// forward in 0.1 increments
x = seqa(-pi, 0.1, 63);

// Plot the cosine of x
plotXY(x, cos(x));

// Create a custom section for the next graph starting 10%
// from the main graph's left edge, 10% from the bottom of
// the main graph, with a width and height both equaling
// 30% of the width of the main graph.
plotCustomLayout(0.1, 0.1, 0.3, 0.3);

// Plot the next graph in the custom layout
plotXY(x[1:20], cos(x[1:20]));

// Prevent the next graph from being drawn in this custom
// region
plotClearLayout();

Remarks#

After calling this function all subsequent graphs will be plotted inside of the specified custom layout until the layout is reset with plotLayout(), or the layout is cleared with plotClearLayout().
