line (MathScript RT Module Function)

Owning Class: plots

Requires: MathScript RT Module

Syntax

line(x, y)

line(x, y, z)

line(name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN)

line(x, y, name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN)

line(x, y, z, name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN)

obj = line(x, y)

obj = line(x, y, z)

obj = line(name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN)

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. When calling line(name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN), you must use the attributes 'XData', 'YData', or 'ZData' to specify the x-, y-, or z-coordinates of the line.

Examples

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.

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)
