Configure Canvas Plots

Select a canvas plot to edit it in the Model Inspector.

Behavior settings

Available controls depend on plot type:

• Plot Type changes the visualization.
• Series / Flows chooses model output.
• Layers can set mark type, axis, opacity, line width and style, fill, markers, endpoint labels, ribbons, or comparative behavior.
• Faceting separates array data by a selected dimension.
• Markers add a single X or Y reference.
• Shaded Bands highlight a range using fixed values or variable values.

When a Bar plot uses Histogram presentation, controls include bin count, range, statistics, PDF normalization, and cumulative display. Heatmaps include color range and color-bar ticks.

Style settings

Common options include:

• Left/Right Axis or X/Y Axis titles to label scales
• Set zero axis if possible
• Y Min / Y Max and Time Window to constrain the visible range, with reset buttons to restore automatic ranges
• Table Time Orientation, Start Time, Stop Time, Interval, and Reset Table Range (Auto)
• legend visibility and position
• playhead value box and hover tooltip
• grid, border, and transparent background
• built-in or shared custom palette
• per-series colors
• line style and width
• marker shape, size, stroke, and fill
• table row colors, column auto-sizing, and export marking

Export

Use the selected plot's context menu to export PNG, JPG, SVG, or PDF.

Limitations

• A plot cannot display a variable absent from the available simulation result.
• Manual limits can hide valid data; reset to automatic limits when a plot appears empty.
• Comparative layers require compatible saved runs and the intended runs enabled for comparison.
