Allow rotated graphs on Report

[TCPlomp]

Sometimes I try to place a vertical onriented graph next to a 2d-intensity graph. This is especially interesting with a time-frequency plot where you want to plot some interesting frequencies next to the intensity plot.

Currently this is only possible by altering the x-y data.

By adding rotated 1-d graphs we could easily create such a graph.

Hi TCPlomp,

I'm afraid I don't understand you yet.  DIAdem has had free rotation of 3D graphs for a long time now, and DIAdem does not have any 1D graphs, whatever those would look like.  I do know what you mean by a time-frequency plot, but I'm unclear what additional information you want to juxtapose next to it or how additional (2D graph?) rotation would help.

Please clarify,

Hello Brad,

I meant to rotate a 2D graph. Currently I have created a  curve transformation with the following code:

---

Call ChnCopy (CurveTransfInX ,CurveTransfOutY )  
Call ChnCopy (CurveTransfInY ,CurveTransfOutX )

---

The use case is the following, if I have 2D (time-frequency graph) where the horizontal axes is the frequency and there is a relation with a different signal (speed for instance), and I would like to point out this relation I can currently create the following image by rotating the right graph.

Hi TCPlomp,

OK, now I understand what you're saying-- thanks for the clarifications.  Are you ever interested in rotating the 2D graph to any angle other than the one that inverts the X and Y axes, though?  If you just want to see the Y channel on the horizontal axis and the X channel on the vertical axis, why is it insufficient to assign the curve that way?

Sometime I don't have an X-axis (using waveform data).

I can transpose the array with the curve transformation I posted, however I would expect from a profressional reporting tool the freedom to rotate a graph.
Or should I try to create a XYZ triplet graph?

Please be aware that rotation of a graph doesn't provide the same result as just switching x- and y-channels. One of the axes would also have to be mirrored

Your screenshot doesn't look like you could achieve the same result by rotation.

Hi TCPlomp,

You can plot a waveform channel on Y axis, though you have to create the curve backwards first and then edit the X and Y channel references:
