Run Charts: In order to open a chart with data in it, one or more of the run columns must first be highlighted. To highlight a column, right-click on the column header and select Highlight to highlight the column selected or Highlight All to highlight all of the columns of data. Clicking Histogram, Trend Compare or Trend Consecutive under Run Charts will open another window with whichever chart and columns were selected. Under the Chart Type tab in that window, it shows the three charts available. Selecting a different chart than the chart currently selected will switch the display to match the proper layout.

If Trend Compare or Trend Consecutive is chosen, use the Select Tags window to choose which tags should be included in the trend.

Save Runs: Selecting this option will open a window that lists the tags in the centerline with a checkbox to select/unselect any of the tags. Tag rows will be highlighted in red if they cannot be saved (not assigned to a process area). There are two drop-down menus. The Whisker Type drop-down menu allows either the Standard or SQC type to be chosen. The Process drop-down menu allows any of the processes to be selected.
