IDL and 2-D Plotting

This section demonstrates how to create and manipulate two-dimensional plots using the Visualization Tool Palette, the iPlot tool, and IDL's Direct graphics system.

To learn more about plotting linear data in IDL, see Line Plots.

For more information on working with the iPlot tool, see Working with Plots.

For a list of Direct graphics plotting routines, refer to the Plotting section of the Functional List of IDL Routines.
