NAME¶

mcplot-svg - Plotting the results of a mcstas simulation in a browser

SYNOPSIS¶

mcplot-svg [-h] [-n] [-l] [–autosize] [–libpath [LIBPATH ...]] [-o OUTPUT] [simulation ...]

DESCRIPTION¶

The front-end mcplot-svg is a program that produces plots of all the monitors in a simulation, and it is thus useful to get a quick overview of the simulation results. In the simplest case, the front-end is run simply by typing mcplot-svg. This will plot any simulation data stored in the current directory, which is where simulations store their results by default. If the --dir or --file options have been used, the name of the file or directory should be passed to mcplot-svg, e.g. mcplot-svg dir or mcplot-svg file. It is also possible to plot one single text (not binary) data file from a given monitor, passing its name to mcplot-svg. The -h option will list valid options.

This is the web/svg plotting tool (in browser).
