### Graph-menu

The gnuplot graph window has the following options on a pop-up menu accessed by pressing the right mouse button(*) or selecting Options from the system menu or the toolbar:

Copy to Clipboard copies a bitmap and an enhanced metafile picture.

Save as EMF... allows the user to save the current graph window as enhanced metafile (EMF or EMF+).

Save as Bitmap... allows the user to save a copy of the graph as bitmap file.

Print... prints the graphics windows using a Windows printer driver and allows selection of the printer and scaling of the output. See also windows printing (p. ).

Bring to Top when checked raises the graph window to the top after every plot.

Color when checked enables color output. When unchecked it forces all grayscale output. This is e.g. useful to test appearance of monochrome printouts.

GDI backend draws to the screen using Windows GDI. This is the classical windows terminal, which is fast, but lacks many features such as anti-aliasing, oversampling and full transparency support. It is now deprecated.

GDI+ backend draws to the screen using the GDI+ Windows API. It supports full antialiasing, oversampling, transparency and custom dash patterns. This is the currently preferred variant.

Direct2D backend uses Direct2D & DirectWrite APIs to draw. It uses graphic card acceleration and is hence typically much faster. Printing, saving and copying to clipboard fall back to GDI+. This will become the default backend but is currently still considered experimental.

Oversampling draws diagonal lines at fractional pixel positions to avoid `"`wobbling`"` effects. Vertical or horizontal lines are still snapped to integer pixel positions to avoid blurry lines.

Antialiasing enables smoothing of lines and edges. Note that this slows down drawing. Antialiasing of polygons is enabled by default but might slow down drawing with the GDI+ backend.

Fast rotation switches antialiasing temporarily off while rotating the graph with the mouse. This speeds up drawing considerably at the expense of an additional redraw after releasing the mouse button.

Background... sets the window background color.

Choose Font... selects the font used in the graphics window.

Update wgnuplot.ini saves the current window locations, window sizes, text window font, text window font size, graph window font, graph window font size, background color to the initialization file wgnuplot.ini.

(*) Note that this menu is only available by pressing the right mouse button with unset mouse.
