Frequently Asked Question

In general, there is a way to add a list of numerical values from either an excel sheet or a txt file to a FactSage fig file. If your source file is a txt file, please make sure that data colums are separated by a tab. Data points can be added either to a newly calculated phase diagram or to a precalculated fig file, if it is opened with the Figure module. First, copy the data you want to add to the windows clipboard (Control C). Activate the edit mode in the Figure module of FactSage (click the pen symbol in the upper left of the left panel), then right click on a point somewhere in the figure to open the "Paste" window.In the paste window select either "symbol" or "line". When you choose the option "symbol" you can select a symbol. Then click Ok. The data should become visible in the figure.
