Plot Customization

Customize analysis plot appearance and units

You can customize response plots using interactive plot tools and the plot property editor. Use the functions in this category to generate response plots that are customizable at the command line. For information about linear analysis plots and data, see Time and Frequency Domain Analysis.

Topics

Specify Plotting Preferences for Linear Analysis

You can define default plot configurations by specifying toolbox and app plotting preferences.
Customize Linear Analysis Plots Using Property Editor
Interactively set axes labels and limits, fonts, grids, and other attributes of response plots.
Customize Linear Analysis Plots at Command Line
The command-line interface is the most efficient way to customize a large number of plots.
