Plot Menu

In Evince, you can access the plot menu by right-clicking on any plot. The plot menu contains options for altering the selection of objects, the appearance of objects and options for changing various properties of the plot itself.

Options:

- Plot Field Properties: Opens a dialog where the appearance of the currently selected Plot Field can be altered.

- Include: Includes the selected observations/variables to be part of model calculations.

- Exclude: Excludes the selected observations/variables to be part of model calculations.

- Apply Changes: Apply changes will update the models with the alterations made to active DataSet. For example, if a number of observations/variables have been excluded, apply changes will recalculate the models with only the included observations/variables.

- Add selected to...: Sets the selected observations/variables to belong to the following;

- New Category: Sets the objects to belong to a class in a category.
- New Variable/Observation: Sets the objects to a new variable (for observations) or to a new observation (for variables).
- New DataSet: Creates a new DataSet with only the selected observations/variables included.

Advanced menu:

This option is only available when at least one point has been selected. This option is not available when objects have been selected from more than one layer.
