Single Variable Data Viewer

Using the Data Viewer on a single variable, or dragging and dropping a single variable from the Multivariate Data Viewer window, displays a simple graph window for a single variable (Figure 1, below). This window shows the distribution of the variable’s data, and the same options for manipulating the graph’s display as other @RISK graph windows.

  • Settings/Actions - Window-specific setting options and commands:
    • Graph Formatting Options - Opens the Graph Options dialog; more information on formatting graphs starts in Graphing in @RISK.
  • Distribution Display Format - Options for quickly changing the display format of the distribution graph. See Display Format for more information.
  • Export - Commands for exporting the current graph and legend; see Export Button for more information.
