About Multiple Graphs
When you graph measure results from the Measure Results dialog box, you have several display options. You can graph multiple measures for one result set, or one measure with multiple result sets. You get a different display depending upon whether you select the Graph measures separately check box. The way you select multiple measures or result sets also affects the format of the table when you save the graph data as a table. Use the table below to help you decide the best way to display your measure results or save your data as a table.

The Chart-Tool window remains open until you close it, or until you close the Mechanism tab.
