Merge Modes

Several evaluations can be merged during the creation of the report. How the evaluations shall be merged can be defined by different merge modes. In the report, you can change this merge mode again.

The following merge modes exist:

  • Split (group same points)

    Appends the data series. All common points are marked with a different color as a group. You can change the default name of the group ("same").

  • Split

    Appends the data series. Each report is marked in a different color to distinguish it from the other reports.

  • Combined

    Merges all points of data series into one. The parent chart is merged with the parent chart, the first child chart is merged with the first child chart and so forth. In the report, you can distinguish the points via the legend (e.g. " Epm_nEng@Report1" and "Epm_nEng@Report2").

Not all display objects support all merge modes. The following table shows the supported merge modes:
