What are compound graphs?
Compound graphs are those that contain linked or embedded OLE objects. STATISTICA can automatically create compound graphs (e.g., in the Quality Control module where one display contains 4 different types of graphs, or when you use the Multiple-Graph AutoLayout Wizard). STATISTICA supports a comprehensive selection of facilities to insert OLE-compliant objects in STATISTICA graphics documents (for more information, see the next topic). One of the unique features of STATISTICA’s OLE implementation is that it supports nested (up to fourth order) compound documents, that is, you can embed in a STATISTICA graph, a graph containing embedded objects, with embedded objects. Another unique feature of STATISTICA compound graphs is that if the component objects are its own (STATISTICA) graphs, the mapping of the graph objects can be adjusted to optimize the appearance of the fonts, markers, and spacing between parts of the graph in relation to the overall size and proportions of the master docum
