General
There are 2 ways to provide data
The time it takes to plot the data depends on the total number of points, not the number of series. If more than 15 seconds pass, Flash terminates and the data will not be displayed.
The data structure (see below) is specified in the ini file.
Example 1 - 2 columns, Tab delimited
x-value Series 1 --- this line is optionally skipped 295 0.122 296 0.337 |
date/time - Col 0 Col 1 Col 2 Col 3 ..... 1/7/2008 7:47:23 PM -0.1 29.4 29.4 -0.1 -0.1 27.6 27.6 -0.1 |

[DataFile] NumberOfSeries = 6 |
Include either NumberOfSeries or NumberOfFiles,
but not both. This may be changed later.
| ||||||||||||||||||||
[X Series] Column = 0 Type = datetime_am |
Use this to specify the type of values used for the x-axis.
This value is not case sensitive
| ||||||||||||||||||||
[Series 1] Label = Displayed text Column = 2 color = #ff00ff [Series 2] Label = Other text Column = 5 |
These options are used when there are several series in
a single file.
There must be as many of these as specified in
DataFile / NumberOfSeries.
These sections MUST be named Series 1, Series 2, etc.
so the program can find them.
| ||||||||||||||||||||
[Series 1] Label = Description Filename = DataFile_1.txt yColumn = 2 xColumn = 3 color = #ff00ff |
These options are used when there is one series per file.
There must be as many of these as specified in
DataFile / NumberOfFiles.
These sections MUST be named Series 1, Series 2, etc.
so the program can find them.

[Legend] x = 420 y = 50 |
This simply controls where the legend is placed on the graph.
If the values are too large, or less than zero,
then the legend will not be displayed.
| ||||||||||||||||||||
[Slider 1] high = 40 low = 0 value = 30 tickInterval = 10 |
Each series can have one or more
associated sliders that allow the user to modify the
