Interactive graph zooming


When you first show a result as a graph, it automatically set the ranges for the vertical and horizontal axes so that all data points are visible (ignoring values containing INF, NAN, or Null). Now, you can zoom in to show just part of the graph by dragging the cursor. Drag the cursor horizontally from a low to high value to zoom in along the horizontal axis. Drag it vertically to zoom along the vertical axis. Drag it diagonally to create a rectangle to zoom in on both axes. It records the zoomed min and max values in the Axis ranges tab of Graph setup as if you had set them manually.

  • Drag the mouse horizontally to zoom to a manually-scaled x-axis interval:

Transparent blue selection rectangle appears while dragging. After drag, Y is still autoscaled, but now to the data in the selected range.
  • Drag the mouse diagonally to zoom to manually-scaled intervals on both axes:

  • When you move the mouse over a zoomed graph, autoscale hover icon buttons appear. Click on one to auto-scale that axis.

Clicked on the vertical axis autoscale hover icon. Horizontal axis is still manually scaled.
  • Drag vertically to zoom to a manually-scaled y-axis interval.

  • Zooming has the same effect as changing the manual scale range in Graph Setup. In fact, it records your selected end points there.
