SigmaPlot is a scientific data analysis and graphing software package with advanced curve fitting, a vector-based programming language, macro capability and over 50 frequently used statistical tests. SigmaPlot has the analytical features necessary to extract the important information from research data. With over 100 graph types and a user interface which
allows detailed manipulation of every graph object, users can create the exact graph to present results.
Key Features
-
Microsoft Office style ribbons: allows for context sensitive feature grouping for enhanced functionality and ease of use, expanded tooltips including hot keys, high resolution button icons and ALT key tips which provide visual display of keyboard shortcuts.
-
Property browser: includes a new graph object and property browser as well as Dynamic Update which provides immediate graph redraw. It also allows for property groups styles to be copied and applied across like groups, simplifying property specification. It also includes new window show/hide buttons from improved window real-estate management.
-
User interface: includes new tabbed window views to enable quick window management, new docking panel guides providing simple window placement, group open windows into tabbed groups vertically or horizontally, object-specific mini toolbars displayed adjacent to selected graph, worksheet and report options which allows for faster editing and customisable Quick Access toolbar for frequently used user-specific controls.
-
Graph page navigation: including zoom, pan, +/- control, zoom dialog and slider always available on status bar, drag and position graphs with ‘hand’ mouse cursor and quick window scrolling with middle mouse wheel.
-
Worksheet features: including a mini tool bar for quicker worksheet cell editing, zoom enabled worksheets, quick transforms list in property browser object window, quicker worksheet window scrolling and formatted text in worksheet cells.
-
Reports features: including inserting tables with pre-defined styles, copy and past tabular date bi-directionally between SigmaPlot reports and an Excel worksheet, zoom enabled report pages, vertical and horizontal rulers in graph windows, the ability to change the report background colour, explicitly icon in graph output ribbon for frequently used PDF export and drag and drop Work 2007 and Word 2010 content directly onto report page.
-
Curve fitting features: including weight variables being specified as functions of the parameters, parameter covariance matrix and parameter confidence intervals added to nonlinear regression reports and the function curve fitting being able to give the ability to compute predicted values that are defined implicitly by the fit model.
-
Statistics features: includes one sample signed rank test, deming regression allowing for errors in both x and y variables, normal distribution comparison with graph and statistics for quality control analysis, parallel line analysis to determine if linear regression slopes and intercepts are different, Bland-Altman graph and statistics for method comparison and improvements in pos-hoc testing for multi-factor ANOVAs.
-
Analysis and Transform Language: includes Enzyme kinetics analysis module, worksheet row and column titles being set from Transform language statements and new root and implicit functions for solving equations.
-
Graphing Features: includes GDI+ support providing enhanced graphics features, colour gradients, anti-aliasing to eliminate jagged lines, area object and line transparency, radar graph with sub-types and a dot histogram graph.
-
Application Support: allows for an automatic transfer of Version 12 user options during software upgrade
-
Macro Support: includes graph page measurement units specification and automatic legend state specification.
