PAK – COPY DATA

PAK Tip 143 - September 2020

The purpose of this tip is to present the "Copy Data" functionality
which allows you to quickly copy the data displayed in a 2D diagram.

Graphic definition

1. USE OF THE FUNCTION


Data is displayed in a 2D diagram:

  • conventionally via "Graphic Definition" associated with a "Layout" [1]
Interactive graphic parameters
  • or via "Data Viewing" using "Interactive Graphic Parameters" [2].
Copy data

Then, you must create a double cursor which will allow you to select the part of the curve which will be copied by the "Copy Data":

Copy & Paste

With a right click on the boundaries of the double cursor, you can access the "Copy Data" functionality.

[Translate to Englisch:] Paste into Excel

Then, you can paste the data into Excel for example.

2. REMARKS

  • If you use a single cursor, the "Copy Data" will only copy the X / Y values ​​of the cursor, hence the use of the double cursor.
  • The function is not compatible with 3D diagrams.
  • If several curves are displayed in the same 2D diagram, the “Copy Data” will only consider the curve on which the cursor is active.
    If you want to export the values ​​of the other curve, you will move the cursor by clicking on the curve or with the ¯ or ¯ keys.
  • Like the "Append to PowerPoint" functionality presented in the PAK Tip n ° 142, the "Copy Data" is accessible in the "Graphic Viewer" displayed from the "Graphic Definition" and also in the "Data Viewing" when using "Interactive Graphics Parameters".
