The following examples illustrate the differences in how curves are plotted in Metview 4 compared with Metview 3. The differences are summarised here:
- the
curve() function is replaced by the input_visualiser() function to define the curves. The Input Visualiser provides a way to plot lists of values in various ways. - the
curveview is replaced by the cartesianview. The Cartesian View is a general X/Y coordinate system suitable for any non-map-based plot. The Curve View does not exist in Metview 4.
- the axis limits are defined within the Cartesian View, not in the Axis definitions - these are now only for visual attributes of the axis; the View contains all the information for setting up the coordinate system
- the custom legend entries are defined in the
legend() function - Metview has a new Legend icon for controlling the legend. - use of
mgraph() instead of pgraph(), etc. These are the Magics++ versions of the visual definition icons. - specification of output plot files is a little different
