Create a Discrete Curve

To create a discrete curve on a page:

  1. While in Edit Mode, select Curve img_def_Curve_button_bmp from the Object menu.

  2. On the page, drag a rectangle where you want the curve to appear.

The Curve dialog box appears on the screen.

  1. In the Y-Axis Identifier field, enter an identifier or select an identifier in the Identifier selection dialog box.

  2. Under X-Axis, select Set Elements.

  3. Click Ok.

Note

  • The Y-axis identifier must be either one-dimensional or two-dimensional.

  • If you select a two-dimensional identifier for the Y-axis, then by default the first free index will be used for elements along the X-axis. You can change this default via the Swap Indices option in the properties dialog box of the Curve.

  • If you select a one-dimensional Y-axis identifier here, you can add additional Y-axis identifiers later on using the Contents tab of the properties dialog box.
