<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />I am writing a script that will generate a number a charts from the graph builder platform. I would like the script to be dynamic for the data table columns used in the graph builder analysis and also dynamic for the scalebox options. I currently envision two lists (can also be in a matrix or even a data table???). The first list would contain all of the variables in the graph builder expression. The second list may even be a list of lists so it can support multiple charts. It would contain the values to be subsisted (scale min, scale max, parameter/column name from the data table). I am attaching an example of the code I'm trying to use. Any help that anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt
subM = List( parI, parE, minI, maxI );
testM = List( {"Internal Parameter A", "External Parameter B", 100, 200} );
For( i = 1, i < N Items( testM ) + 1, i++,
gb = Expr(
Graph Builder(
Show Control Panel( 0 ),
Variables( X( :System ), X( :Run, Position( 1 ) ), X( :Position, Position( 1 ) ), Y( parI, Side( "Right" ) ), Y( parE, Position( 1 ) ) ),
Elements(
Points( X( 1 ), X( 2 ), X( 3 ), Y( 2 ), Legend( 7 ), Jitter( 1 ) ),
Points( X( 1 ), X( 2 ), X( 3 ), Y( 2 ), Legend( 9 ), Jitter( 1 ) ),
Points( X( 1 ), X( 2 ), X( 3 ), Y( 1 ), Legend( 8 ), Jitter( 1 ) )
),
SendToReport(
Dispatch( {}, "System", ScaleBox, {Show Major Ticks( 1 ), Show Minor Ticks( 0 ), Rotated Labels( "Automatic" )} ),
Dispatch( {}, "X1", ScaleBox, {Min( 90 ), Max( 190 ), Inc( 10 ), Minor Ticks( 1 )} ),
Dispatch( {}, "X2", ScaleBox, {Min( minI ), Max( maxI ), Inc( 10 ), Minor Ticks( 1 )} ),
Dispatch( {}, "X3", FrameBox, {Marker Size( 3 )} )
)
)
);
For( j = 1, j < N Items( testM ) + 1, j++,
Substitute( gb, subM, testM)
);
gb;
Wait( 0 );

I generate dynamic graphs using graph builder using the following approach:
- I create a string (e.g. gb_expr) that contains the necessary graph builder commands.
- I execute the string using eval(parse(gb_expr))
Here's an example that uses evalinsert as a convenient way to insert variables into the graph builder string.
gb_expr = evalinsert("\[
trend_chart_cc = Graph Builder(
Show Control Panel( 0 ),
Variables( X( :^xaxis_col^ ), Y( :^yaxis_rbox_value^ ), Overlay( :^plot_cbox_value^ ) ),
Elements(
Points( X, Y, Legend( 2 ) ),
Line( X, Y, Legend( 4 ), Row order( 0 ), Summary Statistic( "Mean" ) )
),
SendToReport(
Dispatch(
{},
"Graph Builder",
OutlineBox,
{Set Title( "Case Count" )}
),
Dispatch( {}, ^xaxis_col^, ScaleBox, {Rotated Labels( "Automatic" )} ),
^marker_text^
Dispatch( {}, "Graph Builder", FrameBox, {Marker Size( 3 )} ),
^legend_text^,
Dispatch(
{},
"graph title",
TextEditBox,
{Set Text( "^snap_name^" )}
),
)
);
]\");
