Workspace Node: 2D Normal Probability Plots - Quick Tab

The 2D Normal Probability Plots workspace node can be accessed from the Feature Finder, ribbon bar, or Node Browser. The Quick tab of the specifications dialog box is displayed by default when you double-click the node.

Variables

Click this button to display a variable selection dialog box, in which you select the variable(s) to be plotted. If you select more than one variable, a sequence of graphs (one for each variable selected) will be produced. The selections made will be displayed below the Variables button.

Graph type

Select the type of probability plot to be plotted from the Graph type list. Click the desired plot link below for a brief description of that type of graph.

Normal Detrended
Half-Normal  

Plot layout

Specify the plot layout in this group box.

Multiple plots in one graph

When you have chosen more than one variable to be plotted, select this check box to create an overlaid probability plot. When this check box is selected, several probability plots will be displayed in the graph: one for each selected variable. A different point marker and color is used for each of the multiple variables and referenced in the legend so that individual plots representing different variables can be discriminated in the graph. When this check box is cleared, separate graphs will be generated for each variable.

Statistics

You can include statistics as footnotes in the graph by selecting the check box in this group box.

Shapiro-Wilk

Select this check box to include the Shapiro-Wilk W statistic for normality and its associated p-value.

Do not assign average ranks to tied observations

This check box is selected by default, which enables you to see all data points, even the ties. When this check box is cleared, the "tied" points will overlap.

OK

Click this button to accept all the specifications made in the dialog box and to close it. The results are placed in the Reporting Documents node after running (updating) the project.
