Making Movies

Choose Movie from the Plot Type drop-down menu in the Data to Plot pane.

The movie option allows you to see an evaluation over two variables at successive values of a third variable. For example, a model of torque might have speed (N), load (L), and air/fuel ratio (A) as inputs.

The movie option allows you to view how the torque model behaves over the ranges of speed and load for successive values of air/fuel ratio.

  1. Select three variables from the X-axis, Y-axis, and Time drop-down menus, to indicate which variable you want to display. You can view the model surface plotted across the range of two variables, and define the third variable as "time" to see the model surface change across the third variable's range.

  2. Define the variable ranges using the Value boxes for the inputs. See Setting Variable Ranges.

  3. Select the check box to mark boundaries if available.

  4. Click Play.

  5. You can click the buttons at each end of the progress bar under the plot to step through the movie, or click anywhere along the bar (or click and drag the blue pointer) to display a particular point in the movie. You can rotate the plot (including during play).
