- Chart tab - each result is displayed in the chart and listed in the legend next to its colour, along with a checkbox, which can be toggled off to hide the result. When a custom chart is created, additional chart types become available for comparing results to each other, e.g. difference, double mass, and scatter plots. Refer to Charts and Chart Types.
- Table tab - each result is displayed in its own column relative to a date column that covers the date range for all of the data combined.
- Transforms tab - if you apply a transform to a custom chart it is applied to all results in the custom chart. Refer to data manipulation.
- Data tab - this tab only exists in a custom chart. It displays the results that have been added to the custom chart in the tree menu in the panel on the left of the Results Manager window.
- Statistics tab - in addition to univariate statistics, bivariate statistics are displayed. By default the statistics are calculated for the overlapping date range between all results in the custom chart. Refer to Chart Statistics.
Custom charts are not automatically saved when you save your project. This will save which results are in your . By default all new custom charts are assigned to the Temporary sub-folder under custom charts. Charts in the Temporary sub-folder are automatically discarded at the end of each Source session, when a project is closed. To save a custom chart with the Source project, use right-click » Save Custom Chart which will then move the custom chart to the Saved sub-folder. This will save the custom chart along with the transforms you have applied, the chart type, and any other options you have configured (eg. short header in Tables). However, results themselves are not saved unless you choose to save the run(s) that generated the results. When you next open your project, the custom chart will be empty until a result is generated that exactly matches the name of a result used in the custom chart, ie. the scenario name and run number have to match, so you need to run the scenarios in the same order. If results from Latest Run are used to generate a custom chart, it will be populated as soon as you run any scenario. Therefore, if you want to return to an analysis in a custom chart after closing a project, it is best to use either results from Latest Run or to save the run in the project.
The Custom Chart pane is illustrated in Figure 1.
