Select a Different Vector Symbol Table

LogPlot supports both vector symbols, composed of lines and dots, as well as "interval" symbols - small bitmap pictures.

1. To change the name of the vector symbol file to be used in the program, click on the open-file button to the right of the Symbol File name’s prompt.

   

2. In the displayed window, locate the name of the file to be loaded, accessing other drives or directories as necessary. Be sure the symbol file has the extension ".SYM."

   The symbol files that you select can be created in LogPlot or RockWorks.

3. Select the desired file name by clicking on it.
   
4. Click the Open button to accept the selected file name. Or, click on Cancel to throw out any changes.

   You will be returned to the Program Files tab with the new file name displayed as default. You may repeat this process as necessary to change other file names.

LogPlot will now use the selected symbol table when displaying vector symbols in the compiled logs.

Note: the Interval Symbols are built into LogPlot8, they are not stored in a separate file.
