Plotting Cheat Sheet

note

Some plotting methods are only supported by Deephaven Classic, and are coming soon to the web platform.

XY Series

plot("SeriesName", source, "xCol", "yCol") //table source

plot("SeriesName", [x],[y]) //array source

plot("SeriesName", function) //function source

Category (including Bar Charts)

catPlot("SeriesName", source, "CategoryCol", "ValueCol") //table source

catPlot("SeriesName", [category], [values]) //array source

Histogram

histPlot("seriesName", source, "ValueCol", nbins) //table source

histPlot("SeriesName", [x], nbins) //array source

Category Histogram

catHistPlot("seriesName", source, "ValueCol") //table source

catHistPlot("SeriesName", [Values]) //array source

Pie

piePlot("SeriesName", source, "CategoryCol", "ValueCol") //table source

piePlot("SeriesName", [category], [values]") //array source

Open, High, Low, and Close (OHLC)

ohlcPlot("SeriesName", source, "Time", "Open", "High", "Low", "Close") //table source

ohlcPlot("SeriesName",[Time], [Open], [High], [Low], [Close]) //array source

ErrorBar Charts

errorBarX("SeriesName", source, "x", "y", "xLow", "xHigh") //table source

errorBarX("SeriesName", [x], [y], [xLow], [xHigh]) //array source

errorBarY("SeriesName", source, "x", "y", "yLow", "yHigh") //table source

errorBarY("SeriesName", [x], [y], [yLow], [yHigh]) //array source

errorBarXY("SeriesName",source,"x","xLow","xHigh","y","yLow","yHigh") //table source

errorBarXY("SeriesName", [x], [xLow], [xHigh], [y], [yLow], [yHigh]) //array source

catErrorBar("SeriesName", source, "x", "y", "yLow", "yHigh") //table source

catErrorBar("SeriesName", [x],[y],[yLow],[yHigh]) //array source

Scatter Plot Matrix

scatterPlotMatrix(table, "series1", "series2", …)

Multiple Charts in a Figure

figure(int Rows, int Columns).newChart(r,c).plot…

.rowSpan(r) // span multiple rows

.colSpan(c) // span multiple columns

.span(r,c) // span multiple rows and columns

plotBy, catPlotBy, and ohlcPlotBy

plotBy("Series1", source, "xCol", "yCol", "groupByCol")

catPlotBy("SeriesName", source, "CategoryCol", "ValueCol", "groupByCol")

ohlcPlotBy("SeriesName", source, "Time", "Open", "High", "Low", "Close", "groupByCol")

OneClick

oneClick(source, "ColName1", "ColName2", …)

Formatting

xFormatPattern("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss") // e.g., 2017-03-08T14:45:59

Decimal Formatting

yFormatPattern("###,###.00") // e.g., 123,456.78

yFormatPattern("\$###,###.00") // e.g., $123,456.78

yFormatPattern("\$###,###.00 Million") // e.g., $123,456 Million

yFormatPattern("###.00%") // e.g., 100.11%

yFormatPattern("##0.00E00") // e.g., 321.34E8
