Experiment with plt5.m

The easiest way to start learning about plt is to start the sample script plt5.m. Just type plt5 at the command prompt. This simple script plots 5 traces. Note that he third trace (Line 3) is plotted on the right hand axis. Experiment by trying the following:

• Click on all the objects in the plt window including the trace IDs.
• Try that again with the right mouse button (which usually does something different).
• Click and drag on the x and y axes tick labels (again - try both left and right buttons)
• Left or right click and drag in the plot area. (On and off the traces do different things).
• Hold down both mouse buttons in the plot area and drag (creates an expansion box).

Expand on what you have learned playing with plt5 by:

• Using plt with some data you are currently working with. Type plt(x,y) just as you would with Matlab's plot routine.
• Use the plt workspace plotter by typing plt with no arguments. Then you can interactively select the variables you wish to plot.
• Run the other programming examples. (demoplt.m sequences thru all the examples.)
• Explore the topics in "Using the plt window" from the plt help home page.
