The Graph window includes a number of pre-defined templates. Apply one of these pre-defined templates to one or more data items selected in Data Navigator to create a graph. When you modify a pre-defined template by changing the X and Y axis data, the display properties, and so on, you can save the modified template as a user template and apply it to graphs in future sessions.
Pre-defined templates appear at the top of the Template drop-down list colored black and sorted according to how frequently most people need them. User templates appear at the bottom of the Template drop-down list colored blue and sorted in the order in which they were created.
Click Graph templates for a list of all the templates.
To create user templates
1. Once you've configured the mode, axes, and other graph settings, beside the Template drop-down list, click Edit.
The Graph Template Editor dialog box appears.
2. Either click Save to create a user template with the same name as a pre-defined template (this won't overwrite the pre-defined template), or type a different name in the Template box and then click Save. If you're modifying a user template, you must rename it to avoid overwriting the original.
You can only delete user templates, not pre-defined templates. Display the Graph Template Editor dialog box using the process above, select the template to delete from the Template drop-down list, and then click Delete to the right of the Save button.
