ESL Documentation

GPatterns is a string array variable that specifies the type of symbols to be used for each data set plotted on a scatter graph or a line graph with symbols.

 

The model for GPatterns is:

 

copy PATTERN_NAME to GPatterns[DATASET_NUMBER]

 

where PATTERN_NAME is a string value representing the name of the ESL pattern to be copied to the array, and DATASET_NUMBER is an integer representing the data set for which the pattern is to be displayed. For example:

 

copy Logo to GPatterns[4]

 

You can add your own ESL patterns to this array. If you are adding your own ESL patterns as symbols, use a template of 16x16 pixels for each symbol (ESL pattern) you create, to ensure accurate scaling.

 

The initial values for symbols used are as follows:

 

Data Set

Symbol

Data Set

Symbol

1

%Triangle

6

%SCircleP

2

%SquareP

7

%SSquareP

3

%TriangleS

8

%CrossX

4

%Cross

9

%Triangle

5

%CircleP

10

%SquareP

 

You can also change the order of the initial patterns, or add the names of your own patterns.
