Parameters:	&myPlot (struct pointer) – A `plotControl` structure pointer. colors (String array) – name or rgb value of the new colors.

Examples¶

// Declare plotControl structure
struct plotControl myPlot;

// Initialize plotControl structure
myPlot = plotGetDefaults("xy");

// Set new line colors to aqua and midnight blue
clrs = "aqua"$|"midnight blue";
plotSetLineColor(&myPlot, clrs);

Remarks¶

This function sets an attribute in a plotControl structure. It does not affect an existing graph, or a new graph drawn using the default settings that are accessible from the Tools > Preferences > Graphics menu. See the GAUSS Graphics chapter for more information on the methods available for customizing your graphs.
