mxplot - Plotting the results of a mcxtrace simulation

mxplot [-h] [-t] [–invcanvas] [simulation ...]

The front-end mxplot is a program that produces plots of all the monitors in a simulation, and it is thus useful to get a quick overview of the simulation results. In the simplest case, the front-end is run simply by typing mxplot. This will plot any simulation data stored in the current directory, which is where simulations store their results by default. If the –dir or –file options have been used (see section 5.2), the name of the file or directory should be passed to mxplot, e.g. mxplot dir or mxplot file. It is also possible to plot one single text (not binary) data file from a given monitor, passing its name to mxplot. The -h option will list valid options.

The default plotting backend is mxplot-pyqtgraph, but there exists a number of additional plotters such as mxplot-matplotlib, mxplot-html (in a browser), mxplot-matlab (using Matlab or Octave).
