Each type of graphical element has a separate tab showing the properties of the element. You can change the properties on these tabs.

Note the following characteristic features of the different graphical elements:

▪Each graphical element is defined by position and direction coordinates.

▪All elements are defined by start coordinates, but only arrows and lines are defined also by end coordinates.

▪Texts are defined only by start coordinates.

▪Rectangles or ellipses are defined by their height and width (relative coordinates beginning at the starting point).

▪The units of the coordinates depend on the assignment of the graphical element.

▪As already mentioned, the fixed axes are represented in a value range between 0 and 1000.

▪If the x-axis is not fixed, its value range represents the number of seconds beginning at a fixed start date.

▪Apart from this, an individual name can be allocated to each graphical element (in the field Name of [element] at the lower window border), so that it is easier to identify it later (for example in the list of graphical elements).

For each graphic element, in the Style tab

▪the line appearance via

▪line style,

▪line colour and

▪line width

and

▪the fill mode via

▪fill colour and

▪fill pattern

can be set.

The start date is specified in the luqs.ini initialisation file.
