CURSOR

 SHOW CURSOR

This puts a cursor on the graph. After moving the cursor to the desired location, press any key. The current location of the cursor will be typed and entered into the journal file as a comment. This does not work if the device has no cursor. If you have not plotted any data this command will not work.

The position of the cursor is given in both TEXT and DATA units. If a 3-d plot is displayed, The X,Y,Z given are on a plane through the origin parallel to the screen.

DATA

SHOW DATA [SETS=[FROM] n1 [TO] [n2]] [SELECT="name"] [POINTS|COLUMNS=[FROM] n1 [TO] [n2]] [LINES|ROWS=[FROM] n1 [TO] [n2]] [BRIEF|FULL|STATISTICS|TOTAL[=ON|OFF]] [LIMITED [VLOG[=ON|OFF]] [[FROM]|TO [[X=]nx,[[Y=]ny[,[Z=]nz]]] [RECURSOR] [CURSOR] ] [OUTPUT=file] This types the current data and statistics on the data. You may terminate the listing in the middle by pressing Ctrl_C.

     This shows the status of the error reports, and any error messages for this plot are displayed.

    FLAGS

     This show the status of all flags. This is generally only useful for debugging TOPDRAWER. There is no SET FLAGS command.

    HISTOGRAMS

     This command shows the list of histograms made available by the SET HISTOGRAM command. You may terminate the listing in the middle by pressing Ctrl_C.
