I would like to add some "static" data range windows to a graph to see if my data falls within specification. I would like the graph to have a lower limit line and upper limit line, however, the lines are drawn such that they have a positive slope for the 1st half and then remain a constant value for the remainder of the graph. I'm having trouble trying to DRAW a line that hasa positive slope. Everything that I do only makes my line horizontal. I don't want to setup data channels and graph this way, I only want to "hardcode" the lower and upper limit lines on the graph object.
DIAdem-GRAPH can only plot implicit lines that are horizontal or vertical. For lines which have a slope other than 0 or infinity, you must create a DATA channel that contains the line points, then plot a curve of that line from that channel.
Note that in the "Channel contents" tab of DIAdem-DATA you can right-click on any cell and select "Generate" to pop-up a dialog which enables you to create linear values starting at that cell and proceeding downwards. You can also use the DIAdem-CALC function "Generate data", found in the first ("Basic mathmatics") palette at the top left of DIAdem-CALC, to generate a new DATA channel with linear values.
