The standard graph has a default black background, which is an ink drain when printed. Changing all the colors is a time sink. Is there a way to change the default colors? Also, is there a way to convert from time to degrees of rotation, so the graph shows degrees, not time?

Thanks,

I recall being able to set the background for the template, but I can't remember off the top of my head. I'll follow-up on this one. I do know it is easy to create your plot with the abscissa as your angular measure. Simply select "Measure vs. Measure" from the drop-down box at the top of the Measures dialog. Then select the measure you've created for the angle you wish to plot against.

Cheers,

Chris
