  2. Choose how many points you want to be displayed in each plot at one time by typing a number into the Plot Points box.

NOTE: Any off-screen points still exist and can be brought into view using the scrollbar at the bottom of the screen.

  1. Choose the Calculation you want displayed in the lower left corner of each plot.

NOTE: This value will only appear if there is room on the plot.

  1. Choose the amount of Plot Detail to be shown on each plot by checking/unchecking the boxes corresponding to various visual components such as Control or Spec Limits, Labels, ...
  1. Optionally, display Sigma Zones by either line or by color. You can display any combination of 1, 2, and 3 sigma.

  1. Type the number of points to use when determining the background color of the plot. Typically, this number will be set to 1, but if you inspect a lot of parts, you may want to change the color if any of the last 5 parts are bad.

    You can also use the sub-group average to determine plot colors. This option is checked by default.
  2. Starting in version 3.4, you can also control what value is shown for the Plot Label (Characteristic Label and or Extra Info field) and how to determine the Plot Height.
  1. When finished click OK.
