To export graph data to text file

To save the Frequency versus Acceleration data from a floor response analysis to an external file, use the following procedure.

  1. Select the graph you wish to export. The data currently selected in the Floor Spectrum Set in the Floor Spectrums table is graphed. This is the data that will be exported.
  2. Right-click and then select Save Data in Text File from the pop-up menu. A Save As dialog opens.
  3. Locate the folder in which you want to save the spectrum data.
  4. Click Save.

The frequency and acceleration points are saved to the text file with tab delimitations.
