The area of the window for plotting graphs is composed of 3 areas: the graph itself, the measures bar and formatting bar immediately above the graph, and the caption with ANOVA results and post-hoc symbol descriptions immediately below the graph.
Xynk's graphs are fairly standard, but here we define their constituent parts explicitly, to introduce the mapping of Xynk's controls onto the display and formatting of the graphs.
In general, the parts of the graph can be selected individually, and their appearance (eg font style, line thickness, stroke and fill colors, text of labels) can be set via controls in the formatting bar, via the graph panel of the inspector, or via the main menus -- these are all detailed in later sections.
Xynk graphs come in 2 formats: bar graphs and line graphs. The two types of graphs share most of their parts in common.
Bar graphs have bars, of course, while line graphs have data point symbols and connecting plot lines. The graph box is the area where the graph's bars or lines are drawn.
X-Axis: set by the graph's current categorical (independent) measure. The X-Axis is composed of the axis stem (the horizontal line itself), vertical ticks, with tick labels beneath them (or under the bars in the case of a bar graph), and the axis label.
Y-Axis: set by the graph's current Y Value, also known as the numeric (dependent) measure of the graph. The Y-axis also has an axis stem, horizontal tick marks, tick labels, and an axis label. Because it labels numeric Y-values, the tick labels of the Y-axis are numbers, and the Y-Axis has a maximum value and minimum value which can be explicitly set, or derived automatically by Xynk.
Error Bars: if the graph is displaying a summary value for a group, such as the mean or median, then error bars can also be displayed to designate standard deviation, standard error, confidence intervals, etc. The ends of the error bars can be decorated with error caps.
Key: If a graph has a subcategory specified (ie bars grouped under each category, or multiple lines in a line graph), then a key box can be displayed to explain which bar color or lines and symbols are mapped to which subcategory group. The key box can be re-position, the order of the key reversed, etc.
Post-hoc Symbols: If the ANOVA finds signigicant effects, then the graph will display the results of post-hoc comparisons among the groups. Post-hoc results can be displayed in one of 2 ways:
a post-hoc symbol (eg * or †) to indicate a significant difference between selected groups. For example, every group might be compared to a single specific control group, and if a group's average is significantly different from the control, an asterix would be drawn above the group's bar or line symbol. Setting up the predicates for specific post-hoc comparisons is explained in the Post-hoc Comparisons section
letters (eg a,b,c...) to indicate which groups are not significantly different from each other. Groups with the same letter above their bars or line symbols are not different from each other, according the selected post-hoc test, while groups which do not share letters are significantly different. Xynk can automatically assign the appropriate letters to the groups, which makes it very fast and east to see any and all differences among the groups.
Graph Title and Panel Index: A title is displayed at the top of the graph. By default, the title is set to a combination of the names of the numeric measure (Y-Axis) and categorical measure (X-Axis) and , e.g. "Body Weight (g) x Drug Dose". The title can be edited by directly clicking on the title in the graph window, or via the Inspector's graph panel. You can also set a panel index, such as "A.", "B.", etc., for individual graphs in the graph Inspector.
Sehemu ya dirisha la kuchora grafu inajumuisha maeneo matatu: grafu yenyewe, bar ya vipimo na bar ya kuunda moja kwa moja juu ya grafu, na kichwa na matokeo ya ANOVA na maelezo ya alama ya baada ya muda chini ya grafu. Grafu za Xync ni za kawaida, lakini hapa tunafafanua sehemu zao za kiungo waziwazi, kuanzisha ramani ya udhibiti wa Xync kwenye kuonyesha na kuunda ya grafu. Kwa ujumla, sehemu za grafu zinaweza kuchaguliwa kwa mtu binafsi, na muonekano wao (kwa mfano, mtindo wa fonti, unene wa mstari, rangi za kujaza, maandishi ya lebo) inaweza kuwekwa kupitia udhibiti katika bar ya muundo, kupitia jopo la grafu ya mkaguzi, au kupitia menyu kuu - hizi zote zimeelezwa katika sehemu za baadaye. Xync grafu ni pamoja na grafu ya mstari na grafu ya bar. Aina mbili za grafu kushiriki sehemu zao nyingi katika kawaida. Bar grafu ina bars, bila shaka, wakati mstari grafu na alama data uhakika na kuunganisha mistari njama. Graph box ni eneo ambapo graph ya baa au mistari ni kuchorwa. X-Axis: kuweka na grafu ya sasa categorical (ujitegemea) kipimo. X-Axis inajumuisha shina la mhimili (mstari wa usawa yenyewe), ticks wima, na lebo za tick chini yao (au chini ya baa katika kesi ya grafu ya bar), na lebo ya mhimili. Y-Axis: kuweka na grafu ya sasa Y Thamani, pia inajulikana kama idadi (kutegemea) kipimo cha grafu. Y-mhimili pia ina shina mhimili, alama ya mviringo mviringo, vitambulisho vya mviringo, na lebo ya mviringo. Kwa sababu ni vitambulisho namba Y-thamani, tick vitambulisho ya Y-mhimili ni namba, na Y-mhimili ina thamani ya juu na kiwango cha chini ambayo inaweza wazi kuweka, au inayotokana moja kwa moja na Xynk. Bar za makosa: ikiwa grafu inaonyesha thamani ya muhtasari kwa kundi, kama vile wastani au kati, basi bar za makosa zinaweza pia kuonyeshwa kuashiria kupotoka kwa kawaida, kosa la kawaida, vipindi vya uaminifu, nk. Mwisho wa mistari makosa inaweza kupambwa na makosa kofia. Kama graph ina subcategory maalum (yaani, baa zilizokusanywa chini ya kila jamii, au mistari mingi katika grafu ya mstari), kisha sanduku la ufunguo linaweza kuonyeshwa kuelezea rangi ya bar au mistari na alama ni ramani kwa kundi gani subcategory. Sanduku muhimu inaweza kuwa re-mwendo, utaratibu wa ufunguo reversed, nk. Picha za baada ya muda: Ikiwa ANOVA hupata athari za ishara, basi grafu itaonyesha matokeo ya kulinganisha baada ya muda kati ya makundi. Matokeo ya post-hoc yanaweza kuonyeshwa kwa njia mbili: alama ya post-hoc (kwa mfano, * au <>) ili kuonyesha tofauti kubwa kati ya makundi yaliyochaguliwa. Kwa mfano, kila kundi linaweza kulinganishwa na kundi moja la kudhibiti, na ikiwa wastani wa kikundi ni tofauti sana na udhibiti, asterisk itachorwa juu ya alama ya bar au mstari wa kikundi. "Kufanya ""post hoc"" kulinganisha ni muhimu kwa sababu ya kuwa na ""post hoc"" kulinganisha, na ""post hoc"" kulinganisha ni muhimu kwa sababu ya kuwa na ""post hoc"" kulinganisha." Makundi yenye herufi moja juu ya alama zao za mstari au mstari hayatofautiani, kulingana na mtihani wa baada ya muda uliochaguliwa, wakati makundi ambayo hayashiriki herufi ni tofauti sana. Xync inaweza moja kwa moja kugawa herufi sahihi kwa makundi, ambayo inafanya kuwa haraka sana na mashariki kuona tofauti yoyote na zote kati ya makundi. Graph Title na Panel Index: Kichwa ni kuonyeshwa juu ya grafu. Kwa default, kichwa ni kuweka kwa mchanganyiko wa majina ya kipimo cha tarakimu (Y-Axis) na kipimo categorical (X-Axis) na, kwa mfano. "Wingi wa mwili (g) x kipimo cha dawa". Kichwa inaweza kuhaririwa kwa moja kwa moja kubonyeza juu ya kichwa katika dirisha grafu, au kupitia Inspector ya grafu jopo. Unaweza pia kuweka index jopo, kama vile "A. ",B. "Kwa mfano, ""Inspector"" ni moja ya graphs ya kawaida katika graph."
