Plot (ImageJ API)

java.lang.Object
- ij.gui.Plot

All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable
```
public class Plot
extends Object
implements Cloneable
```
This class creates an image that line graphs, scatter plots and plots of vector fields (arrows) can be drawn on and displayed. Note that the clone() operation is a shallow clone: objects like arrays, the PlotProperties, PlotObjects, the ImagePlus etc. of the clone remain the same as those of the original.

  - setSize
```
public void setSize(int width,
                    int height)
```
    Sets the canvas size in (unscaled) pixels and sets the scale to 1.0. If the scale remains 1.0, this will be the size of the resulting ImageProcessor. When not called, the canvas size is adjusted for the plot frame size specified by setFrameSize or otherwise in Edit>Options>Plots.
  - getSize
```

  - setXLabelFont
```
public void setXLabelFont(Font font)
```
    Sets the xLabelFont; must not be mull. If this method is not used, the last setFont of setFontSize call before displaying the plot determines the font, or if neither was called, the font size of the Plot Options is used.
  - setYLabelFont
```
public void setYLabelFont(Font font)
```
    Sets the yLabelFont; must not be null.

  - getYValues
```
public float[] getYValues()
```
    Get the y coordinates of the data set passed with the constructor (if not null) or otherwise of the data set of the first 'addPoints'. Returns null if neither exists
  - getPlotObjectDesignations
```
public String[] getPlotObjectDesignations()

    Get an array with human-readable designations of the PlotObjects (curves, labels, ...) in the sequence they are plotted (i.e., foreground last). Hidden PlotObjects are included.
  - getPlotObjectStyles
```
public String getPlotObjectStyles(int i)
```
    Get the style of the i-th PlotObject (curve, label, ...) in the sequence they are plotted (i.e., foreground last), as String with comma delimiters: Main Color, Secondary Color (or "none"), Line Width [, Symbol shape for XY_DATA] [,hidden]
  - setPlotObjectStyles
```
public void setPlotObjectStyles(int i,
                                String styleString)
```
    Set the style of the i-th PlotObject (curve, label, ...) in the sequence they are plotted (i.e., foreground last), from a String with comma delimiters: Main Color, Secondary Color (or "none"), Line Width [, Symbol shape for XY_DATA] [,hidden]
  - setLimitsToDefaults
```
public void setLimitsToDefaults(boolean updateImg)

  - getProcessor
```
public ImageProcessor getProcessor()
```
    Draws the plot (if not done before) in an ImageProcessor and returns the ImageProcessor with the plot.
  - getImagePlus
```
public ImagePlus getImagePlus()
```
    Returns the plot as an ImagePlus. If an ImagePlus for this plot already exists, displays the plot in that ImagePlus and returns it.
  - setImagePlus
```
public void setImagePlus(ImagePlus imp)
```
    Sets the ImagePlus where the plot will be displayed. If the ImagePlus is not known otherwise (e.g. from getImagePlus), this is needed for changes such as zooming in to work correctly. It also sets the calibration of the ImagePlus. The ImagePlus is not displayed or updated unless its ImageProcessor is no that of the current Plot (then it gets this ImageProcessor). Does nothing if imp is unchanged and has the ImageProcessor of this plot. 'imp' may be null to disconnect the plot from its ImagePlus
  - adjustCalibration
```
public void adjustCalibration(Calibration cal)
```
    Adjusts a Calibration object to fit the current axes. For log axes, the calibration refers to the base-10 logarithm of the value
  - show
```
public PlotWindow show()
```
    Displays the plot in a PlotWindow and returns a reference to the PlotWindow. Plot stacks are shown in a StackWindow, however; in this case the return value is null. Also returns null in BatchMode. Note that the PlotWindow might get closed immediately if its 'listValues' and 'autoClose' flags are set.
  - addToStack
```
public void addToStack()
```
    Appends the current plot to a virtual stack and resets allPlotObjects for next slice N. Vischer
  - appendToStack
```
public void appendToStack()
```
  - getStack
```
public PlotVirtualStack getStack()
```
    Returns the virtual stack created by addToStack().
  - draw
```
public void draw()
```
    Draws the plot specified for the first time. Does nothing if the plot has been drawn already. Call getProcessor to retrieve the ImageProcessor with it. Does no action with respect to the ImagePlus (if any)
  - setFrozen
```
public void setFrozen(boolean frozen)
```
    Freezes or unfreezes the plot. In the frozen state, the plot cannot be resized or updated, and the Plot class does no modifications to the ImageProcessor. Changes are recorded nevertheless and become effective with setFrozen(false).
  - isFrozen
```
public boolean isFrozen()
```
  - updateImage
```
public void updateImage()
```
    Draws the plot again, ignored if the plot has not been drawn before or the plot is frozen If the ImagePlus exist, updates it and its calibration.
  - getDrawingFrame
```
public Rectangle getDrawingFrame()
```
    Returns the rectangle where the data are plotted. This rectangle includes the black outline frame at the top and left, but not at the bottom and right (when the frame is plotted with 1 pxl width). The image scale is its width or height in pixels divided by the data range in x or y.

```
    Creates a new high-resolution plot by scaling it and displays that plot if showIt is true. title may be null, then a default title is used.
  - dispose
```
public void dispose()
```
    Releases the ImageProcessor and ImagePlus associated with the plot. May help garbage collection because some garbage collectors are said to be inefficient with circular references.

```
    Deprecated.
    Use as a public method is not supported any more because it is incompatible with rescaling
    
    Adds an arrow from position 1 to 2 given in pixels; 'size' is the length of the arrowhead

```
public ResultsTable getResultsTable(boolean writeFirstXColumn)
```
    Creates a ResultsTable with the data of the plot. Returns an empty table if no data. Does not write the first x column if writeFirstXColumn is false. When all columns are the same length, x columns equal to the first x column are not written, independent of writeFirstXColumn.
