Creating charts from data in a list
This is not possible for scatter plots. You can select data in a list and use it to create a chart. Depending on whether you select columns, rows or cells in the list, different menu options are shown in the shortcut menu for creating the chart and different data is copied.
1. Open the desired list of network objects, base data or result attributes.
|
Note: If you select data in the next step that cannot be displayed in a chart, the Create Chart option in the shortcut menu will not be active and you cannot create a chart. |
2. Select the desired data:
Data selection | Description |
---|---|
Click the column header |
Selects the values of the attribute of all objects in the list |
Press Ctrl and click the headers of several columns |
Selects the values of the attributes of all objects in the list that are located in the clicked columns |
Click a row header |
Selects the objects in the row |
Press Ctrl and click the headers of several rows |
Selects the objects located in the clicked rows |
Press Ctrl and click several cells in a column |
Selects only the value of the attribute of the object in the clicked cell |
Press Ctrl and click several cells in various columns |
Selects only the values of the attributes of the objects in the clicked cells |
3. Right-click on one of the selected cells.
4. On the shortcut menu, click the desired entry:
Shortcut menu | Description |
---|---|
Create Chart |
Opens the Chart - <Name> window. The chart is displayed based on the selected objects. In Data selection, select Attributes and then select the desired attributes on the right. You can select options for the dimensions in Data selection (Presenting data). |
Create chart > For selected attributes... |
|
Create chart >For selected attributes (x-axis: all simulation runs) |
Displayed for every subattribute of the selected attributes that has a non-aggregated value for a simulation run. Opens the Create Chart window The subattribute is plotted on the x-axis and all instances are used. |
Create chart > For selected attributes (x-axis: all time intervals) |
Displayed for every subattribute of the selected attributes that has a non-aggregated value for a time interval. Opens the Create Chart window The subattribute is plotted on the x-axis and all instances are used. |
Create chart > For selected attributes (x-axis: all vehicle classes) |
Displayed for every subattribute of the selected attributes that has a non-aggregated value for a vehicle class. Opens the Create Chart window The subattribute is plotted on the x-axis and all instances are used. |
The Chart – <Name Network object type> window opens. The chart shows the data depending on the selected cells in the attributes list:
Selected cells | Displayed data |
---|---|
In a column of an attribute |
If only attribute values of an attribute in a column were selected for objects in several rows or in all rows, each object is plotted on the x-axis in whose row a value was selected. For each of these objects, the attribute value is plotted in the chart on the y-axis above the associated object on the x-axis:
|
In different columns |
If attribute values of several columns and of several attributes were selected for objects in several or all rows, each object is plotted on the x-axis in whose row a value has been selected. For each of these objects, the attribute values are plotted in the chart on the Y axis above the associated object on the X axis:

5. Edit the chart if you so wish (Configuring a created chart).
6. If desired, continue to use the chart in another program (Continue using a chart).
