Graphs are drawn on the basis of a graph definition which comprises: the results the graph displays, the type of graph (line, bar, column, etc.), how and whether titles and axes are displayed, and whether the ‘graph’ should appear initially as a table (ideal for the standard financial outputs, such as the Balance Sheet, Cashflow and Profit and Loss Statements). STEM is shipped with a standard set of graph definitions in a default configuration file (default.cnf).
Graphs may contain single or multiple results according to user choice. As well as drawing graphs from one set of model results, individual graphs can also be drawn which contain results from more than one model.
You can create new graph definitions, edit current definitions, and delete them.
Note: STEM will not allow you to edit or delete a graph definition while a graph based on that definition is open.
