The software includes powerful plotting capabilities which allow you to view and
compare data in graphical format. The plot interface has been designed so that
almost all plot features may be accessed directly from the plot window. You may
use menu commands where you find it easier, of course, and those commands are
explained separately below.

Plot Basics
The three most basic elements of any plot are the variables (the weather condi-
tions you are plotting), the date you are plotting, and the plot span (the length of
time over which you are plotting those conditions). The software allows you to
quickly and simply select those three elements and also includes many other use-
ful features which make it easier to view and compare data. Almost all of the plot
features may be accessed directly from the plot window. Menu commands are
explained separately below.
▲ Add/Remove Variable
To add or remove a variable from a plot, click on the box next to the variable’s
name in the Variables Box at the bottom of the plot window. When you add a
variable to the plot, the color of that variable fills the box. When you remove a
variable, the box becomes white again.
