Follow the steps below to manually generate a graph from example data, and then add a constant line to the graph:
1. Go to your report tab
2. Add a
Simple 2D Axis System to the report by clicking the
2D Graph icon, clicking on the
Simple 2D Axis System, then dragging your cursor into the report window.

3. Open the Data Portal and select the data you would like to plot. for this example we selected
Noise_1 from DIAdem's example data. Drag this data into the
Simple 2D Axis plot.
4. To add a line or curve, right-click the
2D Axis Plot » Display.
5. Select
New Entry
6. Select
Curve Parameters7. To generate a constant line, select
Constant from the left hand menu, and type
the desired valueinto the field labeled
X-constant. Click
OK until you are back at the main graph.
8. You can now view the constant line on your graph.

Follow the steps below to programmatically generate a graph from example data, and then add a constant line to the graph:
- This section of the code creates the Plot
Call PicLoad("Template")
Call GraphObjNew("2D-Axis","2DAxis1")
Call GraphObjOpen("2DAxis1")
Call GraphObjNew("2D-Curve","New_Curve") 'Creates a new curve
Call GraphObjOpen("New_Curve") 'Opens the curve object
D2CChnXName = "EXAMPLE/Time"
D2CChnYName = "EXAMPLE/Speed"
Call GraphObjClose("New_Curve")
Call GraphObjClose("2DAxis1")
Call PicUpdate
- This section of the code creates a new constant curve, which is parallel with the X axis
call GraphObjOpen("2DAxis1")
Call GraphObjNew("2D-curve", "Constant Y")
Call GraphObjOpen("Constant Y")
D2CCurveType = "Constant"
D2CConstXName = "NOVALUE"
D2CConstYName = "32"
D2CurveColor = "green"
Call GraphObjClose("Constant Y")
Call GraphObjClose("2DAxis1")
Call PicUpdate
- This section of the code creates a new constant curve, which is parallel with the Y axis
call GraphObjOpen("2DAxis1")
Call GraphObjNew("2D-curve", "Constant X")
Call GraphObjOpen("Constant X")
D2CCurveType = "Constant"
D2CConstXName = "30"
D2CConstYName = "NOVALUE"
D2CurveColor = "red"
Call GraphObjClose("Constant X")
Call GraphObjClose("2DAxis1")
Call PicUpdate
If you run the code above you should see the following plot in the DIAdem report:
