Each graph that is created or imported appears on a separate line in the top section of the Data Properties and Settings panel. You can control the visibility of a graph within the 3D view of a scene with the icons available in the top section of the panel, as well as access additional settings in the lower section. Additional options for examining graphs are available in the Measurement Inspector (see Evaluating Graphs with the Measurement Inspector). A pop-up menu lets you import and map scalar values, add vertex measurements, plot graph tortuosity, as well as export graphs and execute macros (see Graph Pop-Up Menu).
Graph properties and settings
A. List of graphs B. Information C. Graph settings D. Export graph to ROI E. Clip
All graphs that are available for viewing and evaluation are listed in the top section of the Data Properties and Settings panel.
The information available for a selected graph includes the number of vertices, edges, and size along each axis.
Description | |
---|---|
Name |
Indicates the name of the selected graph. |
Number of vertices |
Indicates the total number of vertices within the selected graph. |
Number of edges |
Indicates the total number of edges within the selected graph. |
Edges total length |
If computed, indicates the total length of the edges within the selected graph. NOTE Click the Refresh button to compute the total length of all edges. |
X size |
Indicates the size of the graph along the X-axis. |
Y size |
Indicates the size of the graph along the Y-axis. |
Z size |
Indicates the size of the graph along the Z-axis. |
The options in the Graph settings box let you select edge and vertex measurements, apply thresholds, and compute histograms. You can also adjust the lighting effects applied to graphs (see 3D Scene's View Properties).
The following settings are available for sparse graphs created from regions of interest and multi-ROIs (see Graphing Regions of Interest, Graphing Multi-ROIs, and Graphing Three-Phase Boundaries).
Description | |
---|---|
Edge radius measurement |
Lets you choose the scalar values, if available, that you want to apply to the edges of the selected graph. |
Edge radius |
Provides options to adjust the radius of the edges as follows:
|
Range |
Indicates the minimum and maximum values of the selected edge radius measurement. |
Edge LUT measurement |
Lets you choose the scalar values, if available, that you want to map to the LUT applied to the edges of the selected graph. |
Edge LUT |
Lets you to select a Look-Up Table (LUT) function, which determines how colors are mapped to the selected measurement. LUTs can be edited interactively to optimize visualizations.
|
Range |
Indicates the minimum and maximum values of the selected edge LUT measurement. |
Vertex radius measurement |
Lets you choose the scalar values, if available, that you want to apply to the vertices of the selected graph. |
Vertex radius |
Provides options to adjust the radius of the vertices as follows:
|
Range |
Indicates the minimum and maximum values of the selected vertex radius measurement. |
Vertex LUT measurement |
Lets you choose the scalar values, if available, that you want to map to the LUT applied to the vertices of the selected graph. |
Vertex LUT |
Lets you to select a Look-Up Table (LUT) function, which determines how colors are mapped to the selected measurement. LUTs can be edited interactively to optimize visualizations.
|
Range |
Indicates the minimum and maximum values of the selected vertex LUT measurement. |
|
Lets you plot selected scalar values on a histogram, as shown below. |
|
Lets you export the scalar values contained in the selected graph to a comma separated-values (*.csv extension) file. |
|
Lets you import scalar values from a comma separated-values (*.csv extension) file (see Importing Scalar Values from a CSV File). |
Lets you export a graph to a region of interest.
The Clip tool allows you to clip interactively along orthogonal and oblique planes in 3D views of the selected graph (see Clipping). You should note that clipping is applied by default to graphs.
Do the following to clip a graph:
