3.3.2.22.6 Options for Bar and Column Plots

-pbc

Syntax: get name -pbc [variableName]

Get the bar or column border color. 1 = black, 2 = red, 3 = green, 4 = blue, etc.

-pbcd

Syntax: get name -pbcd [variableName]

If the bar or column border color is defined by colormap, indexing or RGB, returns the name of source dataset. Otherwise, return empty.

-pbci

Syntax: get name -pbci [variableName]

If the bar or column border color is set as Increment, get the starting color index.

-pbcm

Syntax: get name -pbcm [variableName]

When the bar or column border color is set as Colormap, get the the name of source dataset for color map.

-pbcn

Syntax: get name -pbcn [variableName]

When the bar or column border color is set as Indexing, get the name of the source dataset for color indexing.

-pbco

Syntax: get name -pbco [variableName]

Returns an index to indicate how the bar or column border color is defined. 0 = individual, 1 = increment, 2 = colormap, 3 = color indexing, 4 = RGB.

-pbcr

Syntax: get name -pbcr [variableName]

When the bar or column border color is set as RGB, get the name of the source dataset for RGB values.

-pbs

Syntax: get name -pbs [variableName]

Get the bar or column border line style. 0 = solid, 1 = dash, etc. as in the line style list.

-pbw

Syntax: get name -pbw [variableName] Get the bar or column border width. 500 = 1 point.

-pd

Syntax: get name -pd [variableName]

Determine whether vertical drop lines are displayed. 1 = show drop lines, 0 = hide drop lines. (See also the -lh (horizontal drop lines) and -lv (vertical drop lines) options.)

-pf

Syntax: get name -pf [variableName]

Determine whether the fill area option is enabled. 1 = fill area on, 2 = fill area off.

-pfb

Syntax: get name -pfb [variableName]

Get the bar or column background color. 1 = black, 2 = red, 3 = green, 4 = blue, etc. For example:

//Fill  column(A) and column(B) with data
plotxy (1,2) plot:=203; // Plot a column plot
get %C -pfb nn; //Get the column fill color
nn=;

If you want to get the color in a multiple patterns plot, you can specify the pattern in option by its index. For example:

//plot two lines that intersect with each other before executing code
set %c -pf 1; //Turn the fill area option on 
set %C -pfv 9; //Set the the Fill Area Under Curve to "Fill to next data plot –Above Below Colors"
get %C -pfb n1; //Get the color of "Pattern Above"
get %C -p2fb n2; //Get the color of "Pattern Below"

-pfbd

Syntax: get name -pfbd [variableName]

If the bar or column fill color is defined by colormap, indexing or RGB, returns the name of source dataset. Otherwise, return empty.

-pfbi

Syntax: get name -pfbi [variableName]

If the bar or column fill color is set as Increment, get the starting color index.

-pfbm

Syntax: get name -pfbm [variableName]

When the bar or column fill color is set as Colormap, get the the name of source dataset for color map.

-pfbn

Syntax: get name -pfbn [variableName]

When the bar or column fill color is set as Indexing, get the name of the source dataset for color indexing.

-pfbo

Syntax: get name -pfbo [variableName]
