WebViewer Features
Using SigmaPlot 8.0 or higher, users can export graphs as high-resolution, dynamic web pages – not simple GIF or JPEG files. The new Save as Web Page command automatically generates HTML code for the graph files to export to the web or within other web pages.
Using SigmaPlot 8.0 or higher you’ll be able to:
- Share the data behind your graphs with colleagues and students.
- Enable colleagues to print your full report from your intranet or Website directly from their browsers- with compromising the quality of the graphs.
- Create an optional password while exporting your graph to restrict data access to authorized users only.
- Produce web documents without knowing HTML, or embed SigmaPlot Web object graphs in existing HTML files to create interactive electronic reports.
View the Data!
In addition to simply viewing the graph, there is password-protected access to the data and to the graph itself. If you have password rights, you can see the data and other meta-data behind the graph (The password for the sample graph above is “password”.)
