Associating a Named View with a Plot

You can associate a plot with a named view orientation. When you double-click the plot or include it in a report, it appears in its associated view.

  1. In the Simulation study tree, right-click the plot icon and select Edit Definition.
  2. Under Property, do the following:
    • Check Associate plot with name view orientation and select the desired view in Named Views.
    • In the graphics area, rotate, zoom, and pan the model to create the desired view for the plot. Click Associate with current view .

    The current view is given an automated name. This new view becomes available in the Named Views menu for all plots.

  3. Click .

    If the user defined view name starts with an *, the software does not plot the result in the exact view. The view looks like the specified view (*...) followed by zoom to fit.
