line (MathScript RT Module Function)
Owning Class: plots
Requires: MathScript RT Module
Syntax
line(x, y)
line(x, y, z)
line(x, y, name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN)
line(x, y, z, name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN)
obj = line(x, y)
obj = line(x, y, name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN)
obj = line(x, y, z, name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN)
Description
Adds a line to the current plot. line(x, y, name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN) or line(x, y, z, name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN) sets the line attributes according to the attribute names and values you specify.
Inputs
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| x | Specifies the x-coordinates of the line you want to plot. x is a vector or matrix. If x is a matrix, line plots each column of x as a separate line. |
| y | Specifies the y-coordinates of the line you want to plot. y is a vector or matrix. size(y) must equal size(x). |
| z | Specifies the z-coordinates of the line you want to plot. z is a vector or matrix. size(z) must equal size(x). |
| name | Specifies the name of the attribute. name is a string. |
| value | Specifies the value of the attribute. |
Outputs
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| obj | Returns the reference to the line LabVIEW creates. obj is a reference to a line object. |
Details
This function is not supported in the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine if you request an output from the function. Either do not request an output or remove this function from scripts before you build a stand-alone application or shared library.
Examples
x = -pi:pi;
y = sin(x);
line(x, y)
a = -pi:pi;
b = sin(a);
c = sqrt(a);
obj = line(a, b, c, 'Color', 'm', 'LineStyle', ':', 'LineWidth', 5)
