Limit of number of variables included in a custom graph

Post by WayneZhou2009 »

Hi,

This may seems to trivial to ask, but I have just come across this issue:

When producing custom graphs through the "Graphs" tab of the Control Panel, there is a limit of up to 6 variables that can be included in a single graph (6 lines under "Variable" of the dialog window after clicking "New" of the Control Panel). Would it be possible to have more than 6 variables included in one single customized graph, in some way?

I know SHIFT clicking multiple variables in a model and then clicking "Graph" in the toolset can display the graph in a pop-up window. However what I want is a customized graph showing more than 6 variables that can be embedded into the model as an Input-Output Object.

Many thanks.

You can put more than 6 if you export the graph set to .vgd and edit it with a text editor, I think.
