Slide Number 1

Title Slide

Hello everyone.

Welcome to this tutorial on Charts in GChemTable.

Slide Number 2

Learning Objectives

In this tutorial, we will learn about,
  • Elemental Charts and
  • How to create Custom Charts
Slide Number 3

System Requirement

For this tutorial, I am using:

Ubuntu Linux OS version 12.04.

GChemPaint version 0.12.10

GChemTable version 0.12.10

Slide Number 4

Pre-requisites

To follow this tutorial you should be familiar with
  • Periodic table of elements and
  • GChemPaint

For relevant tutorials on GChemPaint, please visit our website.

Let's open a new GChemTable window.
Click on Dash Home>>

Type “gchemtable” in the serach bar that appears.

Click on Dash Home.

Type “gchemtable” in the search bar that appears.

Click on Periodic table of the elements icon. Click on Periodic table of the elements icon.
Go to View menu select Elements Charts.

Point to the submenu.

Go to View menu select Element Charts.

A submenu opens, displaying a list of options.

Click on Electro-negativity. Click on Electro-negativity.

A chart of Pauling Electro-negativity versus Atomic number(Z) is displayed.

Point to the chart. In the chart, highest Electro-negativity value is '4'.
Point to Close button. I will now close the Electro-negativity chart.
Select Melting Point chart. Likewise, different charts are available under View menu,

Element charts option.

I will select Melting Temperature option now.

Point to the highest Melting Point. A chart of Melting point versus Atomic number(Z) is displayed.

In this chart, Carbon has highest melting point.

Point to Close button. I will close the Melting point chart now.
Now, let's learn how to create a "Custom" chart.
Go to View menu select Element Charts >>

Navigate to Custom and click on it.

Go to View, select Element Charts and

click on Custom.

Point to Customize Chart window.

Point to GChemTable Graph window

Customize Chart window and

GChemTable Graph window appear on the screen.

Point Customize Chart window.

Point Graph hierarchy tree

Point to Graph preview

Customize Chart window has,

Graph hierarchy tree on the left and

Graph preview on the right.

Point to Graph hierarchy tree.

Point to the Hierarchy.

Point to the buttons.

Graph hierarchy tree displays

the current graph components and their hierarchy.

Hierarchy can be modified using the buttons given in the panel below.

Point to Graph preview. Graph preview displays,

a scaled version of the modifications in the graph.

Point to Graph and Chart1 in Graph hierarchy tree.

Point to Graph

In the Graph hierarchy tree,

you can see Graph and Chart1.

By default, Graph is selected.

Move the cursor to the panel.

Point to tabs Style and Theme.

Now let's move to the panel below.

Here, there are two tabs: Style and Theme.

Point to Style tab.

Point to the headings Outline and Fill.

By default, Style tab is selected.

Here we have two headings: Outline and Fill.

Point to the drop downs Style, Color and Size. Outline heading has 3 drop downs, namely,

Style, Color and Size.

These drop downs help to change outline properties of the Graph.

Click on Style drop down arrow >>

Select Long Dash.

Click on Style drop down arrow and

select any of the line styles shown.

                                                                             For eg- I will select Long dash.
Click on Color drop down arrow >>

Select Green color box

Click on Color drop down arrow to view all the available colours.

I will select green colour.

Move the cursor towards Graph preview. All changes can be seen in the Graph preview area.
Point to Fill.

Point to Type drop down button

Next, let's look at Fill.

Under Fill, we can see Type drop-down button.

Click on Type field drop down button >> select Pattern. Click on Type drop-down button and

select Pattern from the options list.

Point to the attributes Pattern, Foreground

and Background.

Attributes of Pattern appear below.

These include Pattern, Foreground and Background

Point to the drop downs. Each attribute has a drop down that shows options to select from.
Click on Pattern drop down to select a pattern. Click on Pattern drop-down to select a pattern of your choice.
Click on Foreground drop down to select 'orange' color. Click on Foreground drop-down to select 'orange' color.
Click on Background drop down to select 'green' color. Click on Background drop-down to select 'green' color.
Point to Theme tab You can explore the Theme tab options on your own.
Click Add button, Select Title to Chart1 Click on Add button and

Select Title to Chart1 from the options list.

Point to Data tab. By default, Data tab is selected.
Type as Atomic mass – Fusion Temperature. In the Text field, type the title of the Chart.

I will type the title as Atomic mass – Fusion Temperature.

Click on Font tab.

Move the cursor to Font, Font style and Size.

Next, click on Font tab.

Here you can change

Font type, Font style, font Size and Font color.

I will increase the size to 14 and change the colour to 'red'.

Click on Text tab. Click on Text tab.

Here you can change Orientation of the text.

Click directly on the preview area and change the orientation

Move the cursor to Angle field drop down and scroll to 5 degrees.

This can be done in 2 ways-

1. One by clicking directly in the preview area... like this and

2. Two by changing the Angle field using the scroller.

Click on Position tab.

Point to the fields.

Click on Position tab now.

I will leave the default values as they are.

In Graph hierarchy tree select Chart1 In the Graph hierarchy tree let's go back and

click on Chart1

Point to the tabs Style, Position and Plot area. In the panel below, we have three tabs,
