Documents created with this program can contain any number of two dimensional and three-dimensional graphs, texts and graphic objects, all editable with mouse clicks
Biosoft announces the release of FigSys, a powerful Windows program for the analysis, graphing and presentation of scientific data.
Documents created with FigSys can contain any number of two dimensional and three-dimensional graphs, texts and graphic objects (arrows, boxes, bitmaps, labels etc) all editable with a few clicks of the mouse.
Creating straightforward figure types such as line graphs, bar charts, areagrams, scatter diagrams etc is highly automated and numerous refinements can be added with simple-to-use tools.
Even complex data plots are easily assembled on screen with all their components in a single 'layer' for easy access.
Charts containing mainly text can be created with the sophisticated on-screen editor.
FigSys also has an advanced spreadsheet plus built-in data transforms, statistical analysis and equation-fitting.
In fact, entire reports can be created without using other software but FigSys is easily interfaced with other programs and can import data and images from a variety of sources.
Other smart FigSys features include computation of unknowns from fitted standard curves for assay purposes.
There is also a 'freehand' curve facility which enables insertion of smooth graph lines exactly where the eye indicates they should be.
Superimposed points on scatter plots can be arranged in clean rows.
Equation-fit lines can be extrapolated to axes, for instance for Lineweaver-Burk plots. Individual datapoints on graphs can be given unique appearance; in fact, there is the potential for detailed control over the appearance of everything created in FigSys.
Publication-quality output can be made from FigSys to all Windows-supported devices such as printers and slidemakers and also to high-resolution image files for transfer to slide bureaus etc Template facilities in FigSys allow use of similar designs of figure repeatedly with different datasets.
Zoom and snap-to-grid features enable precise positioning of all graphical components.
Toolbars can be customised to suit the user's style of working.
For those with programming skills, FigSys can optionally be controlled by scripts, enabling a series of analytical and graphical steps to be performed without user intervention.
