Using Data Import : Data Import Function Calls

Data Import Function Calls

Data Import function calls can appear anywhere in your program once an initialization procedure is performed. Here are some examples of valid function calls:

stmCreateChart(stm_context, chart_name, chart_type, chart_usage, short_description, long_description)

This function creates a new chart. The chart’s page size is 25 x 19. In all other creation functions, when coordinates are given, they should be in this range. For more information, see stmCreateChart.

stmSetShortLongDescription(stm_context, chart_name, element_name, element_type, new_short_description, new_long_description)

This function sets short and long descriptions for an element. For more inforamtion, see stmSetShortLongDescription.
