MP-Web Output - Graphical Tab

MP-Web Graphical Tab

The Graphical Tab allows users to create graphs quickly and easily. Five types of a graph can be plotted - Line, Bar, Combo, Pie, and Wind Rose. Clicking any of the graphing icons will reveal further controls to help produce the desired output.

General Options

Decimal Places

Data will typically be displayed to the number of decimal places as presented in the base data (taken from the 'Text Value'). This means data will typically display to the level of accuracy as intended. The only variation to this is in graphing which includes levels of aggregation/summarisation. This is the case with summarisation of the line graphs and averaging in bar/combo charts. Here MonitorPro will use the default windows setting (typically 2dp) or the decimal place properties of the individual Variable(s). For data that is typically above 2dp users should ensure the number of decimal places for these Variables is suitably set to ensure the correct displaying of the data (otherwise it will default to 2dp). This can be done from the properties of each Variable under Object Management. 

Series Colour

The series colour is automatic unless otherwise set in the properties of the relevant Variables. When users would like the same Variable(s) to maintain the same series colour each time they are plotted, users first need to apply an appropriate colour to those Variables. This is set under the properties of each Variable under Object Management. 

Long Name Short Name

The use of the Long or Short Name of Variables and Sample Points in the Graphing can be set under Administration.
