Curve Tool: Changing the Orientation

Graphs are usually displayed with the independent variable horizontal—increasing from left to right—and the dependent variable vertical—increasing from bottom to top. This is how the Curve Tool defaults to display the curve: time (or master position) is the independent variable, and the position (or slave position) is the dependent variable.

However, some applications such as parison drops are accustomed to a different orientation, with the time (or master position) increasing from top to bottom and the position increasing from left to right.

The Curve Tool supports both orientations. The first is called Horizontal Time, and the second is called Vertical Time.

To change the Graph view orientation:

1. On the Tools menu, click Options.

2. Click the Graph tab.

3. Under Orientation, click either the Horizontal Time or Vertical Time option button.

4. Click OK.
