Two questions (Repeating Text and Moving Table Text).

I am making a graph for Atterbergs and am wanting to show all three of the tares, weights, blow counts etc. I used the repeat tab under text properties and it still only shows one when viewing the output. It is the first one in the set that I need so I know it is referencing the right place. Any help is appreciated.

The only question is that in a Graphical Table how can you move the text down. The text seems to base itself on a dashed line on the top of the page. It does not matter what value I put in for the Y-value and since I can only offset it 0.5 it is still jumbled with other text. Again any help is appreciated.

  • Questions: Are you in the Graphs tab or the Graphic Tables tab? If in the Graphs tab, are you trying to build a table below the data frame of the graph? Or does the graph itself repeat, with the text designed to be included within the data frame boundaries?



  • I talked to Kathleen Holocomb, in Support about the problem and we got it figured out. Now I have a question about  adding another graph to an existing graph. I saw the help article and it still is not working and I also want to add a legend to one of the graphs. This is in the Graphs tab.

  • Graphs are defined as one data frame per Graph report. You can report multiple dependent data against the independent axis datum, but within the Graph Report design there is not a way to add a second data frame with a different Independent axis. (This can be done by writing a gINT Rule that manages the print process from INPUT, and generates a compound Graph report by combining two Graph reports onto a single sheet of output.)

    There is an example of a standard legend for a Graph in the gINT standard libraries, named INDEX PROPS. You can also use a table of values "indexed" with a legend to show the data marker plotted on the graph that applies to each row in the table. Good examples of this are seen in the the standard lab libraries ATTERBERG LIMITS (single table) and GRAIN SIZE (dual table) Graph reports.
