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 the 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.

In the search bar that appears type “gchemtable”.

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

Point to the submenu.

Click on 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 close the Electro-negativity chart.
Select Melting Point chart. Likewise, different charts are available under View menu,

Element charts.

I will select Melting Temperature chart.

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 Melting point chart.
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.

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.

Click Add button, Select Title to Chart1 Click on Add button.

Select Title to Chart1 from the options list.

Point to the tabs. A new set of tabs open below.
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 Atomic mass – Fusion Temperature.

Click on Font tab.

Move the cursor to Font, Font style Size and Color.

Click on Font tab.

Here you can change the Font type, Font style, font Size and font Color.

I will increase font size to 14 and change the font color to 'maroon'.

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...

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

Click on Position tab.

Point to the fields.

Click on Position tab.

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, three tabs,
