CCGvu Mouse Control


Additional functions and shortcuts to the graphs in ccgvu can be accessed by using certain mouse buttons.

Graph Area Mouse Functions

Left mouse button
When the left mouse button is pressed when the cursor is inside the plotting area of the graph, a crosshairs appears, and a box showing the coordinates of the mouse is visible. Releasing the left mouse button causes these to disappear.

Right Mouse Button
If the right mouse button is pressed when the cursor is inside the graph widget, a popup menu appears which provides shortcuts to the graph editing routines that are found in the Edit menu. In addition, this popup menu provides options for adding or deleting an axis to the graph.

Legend Area Mouse Functions

Left mouse button
When the left mouse button is pressed when the cursor is over one of the legend entries, that element of the graph will not be drawn. Another press of the left button over the same legend entry will allow that element to be drawn.

Right Mouse Button
If the right mouse button is pressed when the cursor is over one of the legend entries, a popup menu appears which gives various options for that data element. You can change the display attributes of the element, change the order of where that element is drawn in relation to other legend entries, and change the axis to which that legend entry is mapped.
