- =====
- KCG supports two types of plots - live data and saved data read from disk.
- To open a plot window select Windows -> New Plot in the Menu.
- You will be asked what type of data to open. The choices are: Live Data and Data read from disk.
- .. tip::
- You can open each of those data types directly as described in the corresponding section below.
- Live Data
- ---------
- If you choose Live Data you can go on with :ref:`openingplotwindows`
- To directly open a Live Data Plot press the first toolbar button or press Ctrl+L.
- Toolbar Symbol for new Live Plots:

- Data from disk
- --------------
- If you choose to read data from disk, you have to specify the file to read.
- To directly open a Data-from-disk Plot press the second toolbar button or press Ctrl+D.

- .. _openingplotwindows:
- Opening Plot Windows
- --------------------
- After you chose the data type, you can open multiple plot Windows with different types. To do so, click on the "+"
- next to the newly created entry in the left listview. If you open a live plot window, data gets plottet whenever
- it is ready (that is when you acquire, when continuous read is enabled or when you perform a single read).
- .. note::
- When you performed an acquisition and after that you open a live plot window, the last saved file
- will be read and plotted in this live plot window
- You can choose the plot type as seen in the image below (It is shown for saved data, but analogous for live data):
- .. image:: _static/MultiViewFilePlot.png
- Heatmap means to plot the data in a 2D plot with color coded values.
- FFT means to plot the fourertransformed data in a 2D plot with color coded values.
- Trains means to plot the trains that were measured
- As of version 0.1.0915 there is an additional plot type: Compare. This means to plot two Heatmaps of different
- ADCs to compare those.
- Combined means to plot #TODO: was ???
- .. note::
- If you have opened multiple windows it can be hard to find the correct window. That's where the left
- part of the Multi View comes in handy: Simply click on the desired plot and it will be brought to focus.
- .. note::
- You can close both, the windows and the data source, by right clicking on the corresponding entry in the left
- part of the Multi View
