You can copy and paste any graph into
another Windows program, such as Microsoft Word, Power Point or
Excel. Simply select "Copy picture" or "Copy Picture
With Graph" from the Edit menu in the Graph Window. Switch
to the other application, and select "Paste".
To paste into Adobe Photoshop, first create a new
document (notice the new document's size will automatically adjust
to your copied selection) and then paste into the new document.
The graphic object saved as an SVG file is a grouped
selection of multiple objects. Selecting "Ungroup" successively
in the other program (Illustrator,
Canvas)will
ungroup these objects, which include: the axis titles, the axis
notations, and the graphic. All text is in Palatino font, size 12
by default; however, you can easily change the default font in the
Preferences dialog for Graph Windows.
The format of the exported graphic depends on the type of graph
as well as a preference setting.
Histograms and CDF plots are always exported as
"line graphs." You can ungroup these and change the line
style or fill pattern for the histograms.
Note also that when you copy a histogram graph,
two items are placed on the clipboard: the graphic rendition as
well as a text rendition of the histogram data itself. Depending
on the program into which you subsequently do a paste, the correct
item will be inserted.
This is also true when you copy a graph from the
kinetics window: both the graphic rendition and the spreadsheet
values are copied into the clipboard. If you paste into a spreadsheet,
you will get two columns: one is time, the other is the computed
value as a function of time.
