Defines the current drawing area.
chips> D {# [,#, ...] | #:# | ALL}
where # is an integer argument specifying drawing area number, and #:#
specifies an inclusive range of drawing area numbers.
Note that wherever the "D #" is used, the above extended
syntax may be utilized to alter multiple drawing areas at once.
If a non-existent drawing area is specified, ChIPS will act on the
current drawing area.
chips> SPLIT 2
chips> SPLIT GAP 0.04
chips> D 1 CURVE data/exampleA.dat
chips> D 2 CURVE data/exampleB.dat
chips> TWOAXESFRAME
The drawing area is first divided into two
parts and and separated by a small amount (0.04). The
first curve is plotted in drawing area 1, and the second in
drawing area 2. Drawing area 2 is now the current drawing area, since
it is the most recently created. The command TWOAXESFRAME
acts on the current drawing area, changing the style of the axes.
chips> D 2
chips> TICKS X 10.0
First, drawing area number is defined as the the current drawing area.
The TICKS X 10.0 command acts
on drawing area number 2, changing the tick spacing to units of 10.
chips> D 1,2
chips> AXES BLUE
"D 1,2" defines drawing areas 1 and 2 as the current
drawing areas, so that the following AXES
BLUE command acts on both of them. The following
commands are equivalent:
chips> D 1:2 AXES BLUE
chips> D ALL AXES BLUE
chips> SPLIT 3
chips> SPLIT GAP 0.1
chips> D 1 CURVE data/exampleA.dat
chips> D 2 CURVE data/exampleB.dat
chips> D 3 CURVE data/example.dat
chips> D ALL LIMITS X 0 20
Three drawing areas are created with a large separation
between them. A separate curve is plotted in each area, then they are
all set to have the same X-axis limits.
