33.20.2 Histogram Dialog Box

The Histogram dialog box allows you to create histograms of selected geometric or physical data. See Section  29.9.8 for details about the items below.

Controls

Options   contains the check buttons for current histogram options.

Auto Range   toggles the ability to specify the minimum and maximum range of scalar values in the histogram print or plot. If the option is not active, the Min and Max fields are editable, and you may specify the desired range. If the option is active, the range is defined by the minimum and maximum values in the computational domain.

Global Range   toggles the ability to specify the minimum and maximum values on the range of values on the selected surfaces, rather than in the entire domain.

Divisions   sets the number of data intervals that will exist in the histogram.

Zone Types   contains a list of available face or cell zone types.

Axes...   opens the Axes dialog box, which allows you to customize the plot axes.

Curves...   opens the Curves dialog box, which allows you to customize the curves used in the histogram plot.

Histogram of   contains a list of scalar quantities that can be used in the histogram.

Min   displays or allows definition of the minimum value of the selected scalar quantity used in the histogram.

Max   displays or allows definition of the maximum value of the selected scalar quantity used in the histogram.

Zones   contains a list of available face or cell zones.

Print   displays the histogram data for the selected scalar variable in the console window. It presents the number of cells, the range, and the percentage of the total number of cells for each histogram interval.

Plot   displays a plot of the percentage of the total number of cells versus the scalar quantity in the active graphics window.

Compute   computes the minimum and maximum cell values of the selected scalar quantity. The values are displayed in Min and Max.
