Options for Data Plots

Get_Options_for_Data_Plots

-c

Syntax: get name -c [variableName]

Get the index of line color and the symbol edge color for plots with lines and/or symbols.

get %C -c t1; // get the line or symbol edge color in activated graph and save it in new variable t1

get DatasetName DataPointIndex -c value;

For example:

//Fill Column(A) and Column(B) with data
plotxy (1,2) plot:=201;//Plot a scatter line plot
set %C 2 -c 3; //Set the second data point color 
get %C 2 -c nn; //nn =3
