Expression
Use this field to define the data set that the series uses. Press
Ctrl + Space
or the
$
symbol to activate a drop-menu that shows you a list of counters. You can select
a counter in this Content Assist list to see its description. Double-click on a
counter to add it to the
Source
field. You can create an expression using more than
one counter by using a combination of counter names and any of the following
operators:
>, <, >=, <=, ==, !=, ||, !, &&, %, *, /, +, -
. You can use
parentheticals to define the order of operation. In addition to the mathematical
and comparative operators, you can use the following expressions in the
Source
field.:
if
Evaluates whether a condition is true or false before applying an effect.
Usage:
if(
x, y, z
)
, where x is the expression to be analyzed. The
result is
y
if
x
is non-zero or
z
if
x
is zero. Only one of
y
or
z
is
evaluated.
abs
Returns the absolute value of the numeric expression specified as the
parameter. Usage:
abs(
x
)
, where x is a numeric expression.
ceiling
Returns the smallest integer that is greater than or equal to the numeric
expression given as a parameter. Usage:
ceiling(
x
)
, where x is a
numeric expression.
floor
Returns the largest integer that is less than or equal to a numeric
expression given as a parameter. Usage:
floor(
x
)
, where x is a numeric
expression.
max
Returns the maximum value over the entire capture from the given
numeric expression. Usage:
max(
x
)
, where x is a numeric expression.
min
Returns the minimum value over the entire capture from the given
numeric expression. Usage:
min(
x
)
, where x is a numeric expression.
round
Returns a numeric expression that is rounded to the specified length.
The length parameter must evaluate to an integer. Usage:
round(
x, y
)
,
where x is a numeric expression and y is the precision length.
Unit
Enter the unit type for the series. The value you enter in this field appears when
you use the Cross Section Marker to select one or more bins.
-
Removes the current series from the chart.
+
Adds a new series to the chart. The new series appears immediately in the
Timeline once you enter a valid expression in the
Expression
field. You can have
up to eight series in a single chart.

The Snippets menu
Located in the lower left corner of the Timeline view, the Snippets menu enables you to manage
your saved chart templates and create new charts. The default charts and the charts that you have
saved using the Save as Snippet button in the Chart Configuration panel are all categorized in
the menu, so that you can easily find them and add them to the Timeline view.
