Synopsis
Set the specified histogram as current.
Syntax
current_histogram(id)
Description
The function arguments.
Argument | Description |
---|---|
id | A ChipsId structure identifying the item, or a string containing the name of the object. |
The current_histogram command sets the histogram indicated by the argument as the current histogram; see "ahelp currency" for general information on currency.
Use the info_current command to retrieve a list of all the current items in the ChIPS session, as shown below.
Examples
Example 1
chips> id = ChipsId() chips> add_histogram([5,8,13], [10, 15, 20], [12, 17, 22], "id=basic") chips> add_histogram([8,10,14], [12, 17, 22], [14, 19, 24], [1,1,2], ["id", "witherrs", "symbol.style", "diamond", "err.style", "capped"]) chips> id.histogram = "basic" chips> current_histogram(id) chips> info_current()
Two histograms are created; the second histogram is current after it is created. The id.histogram command sets the histogram value of the ChipsId structure to the first histogram, then the current_histogram command makes that histogram current.
The output of info_current for this session is:
Window [win1] Frame [frm1] Plot [plot1] X Axis [ax1] Y Axis [ay1] Histogram [basic] Coord Sys [Data] Coord Sys ID [plot1_ax1ay1]
Example 2
chips> add_histogram([5,8,13], [10, 15, 20], [12, 17, 22], "id=Histogram1") chips> add_histogram([1,2,3], [10, 15, 20],["dropline", "off"]) chips> current_histogram("Histogram1")
Two histograms are created. After the second histogram is created, it is current. The current_histogram command then sets the first histogram as the current histogram.
Example 3
chips> add_histogram([5,8,13], [10, 15, 20], [12, 17, 22], "id=basic") chips> add_histogram([8,10,14], [12, 17, 22], [14, 19, 24], [1,1,2], ["id", "witherrs", "symbol.style", "diamond", "err.style", "capped"]) chips> current_histogram("all")
Two histograms are created. After the second histogram is created, it is current. The current_histogram command then makes all histograms current.
