#Engauge digitizer measure full
To get approximate sizes of the window in Internet Explorer when it was running in full You can orient the ruler either horizontally or vertically. Place a ruler anywhere on your screen and read out units in inches, centimeters, or pixels. You can find a page listing these and additional digitizing resources atĪnother interesting product worth mentioning is The prices run from free to hundreds of dollars.
#Engauge digitizer measure software
There is software out there that will do this sort of thing automatically. Standard deviation was well approximated by a linear regression model. The trend line was well approximated by a quartic polynomial regression model, and the Reasonably consistent so I averaged them. The digitized values also provided four estimates of the standard deviation (one-third theĭifference between the +3 SD line and the trend line, etc.). These values were reasonably consistent, so I averaged them. Line (the line itself, a value halfway between the +2 SD and -2 SD lines, and a value halfwayīetween the +3 and -3 SD lines.

You then get three estimates of the trend Line itself as well as at +/- 2 SD and +/- 3 SD. Then I noted the physical location of a limited number of data points on the trend Upper right hand corner and 2.0, 0.0 instead of the lower right hand corner. Side of the graph extends slightly beyond 2.0, I used the co-ordinate 2.0,0.6 instead of the Noted the physical location of the four corners of each graph (actually, since the right hand Until I got an image where the gridlines appeared roughly vertical and horizontal. Then I imported the data into Photoshop Elements. Notice that there is a marked tilt to these graphs. Third the original size to fit easily on this web page). Here is a portion of the image that I scanned (reduced to one I tried various resolutions, and it looks like 300ĭpi worked reasonably well. Graph that would allow her to input a patient's BSA and cardiac measures and get a Z-score in

She asked if I could write a program based on that This graph showed both the trend line and limits at +/-2 standardĭeviations and +/-3 standard deviations. Someone brought me a graph with a trend line relating body surface area (BSA) to variousĬardiac measurements. Stats: Digitizing a graph (March 15, 2005)ĭigitizing a graph (March 15, 2005).
