You can copy and paste any graph into
another Windows program. Simply select "Copy picture"
from the Edit menu in the Graph Window. Switch to the other application,
and select "Paste".
The graphic object is a grouped selection of multiple
objects. Selecting "Ungroup" successively in the other
program 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.
