Question on plotting using plot book and tree view

Hi there, everyone!

im new in PSSE and still not fully knowledgable in using python. I'm currently using version 35.6.4 and I want to plot results of dynamic simulation from an .out file. when simply dragging the channel to the plot area, the curve is generated. however, my problem is that when using functions to modify the results such as converting the result to nominal values instead of per unit values, the plot/curve is not showing in the plotbook. has anybody experienced the same?

Also, what is your recommended PSSE version?

Thank you!

I am normally not using Plotbook for plotting of out-files, but the following works for me:

Example, plotting Pmech and Pelec in MW for generator at bus 206 in savnw network. Mbase is 725 MVA.

Define two functions:

1: Multiply Pmech with Mbase: A*725

2: Multiply Pelec with Sbase: A*100

First function:

Second function:

The two defined functions in Plot Tree:

Drag and drop the two functions in the Plot Page and adjust the scales:

A is channel 33 in first function and channel 8 in second function.

Thank you very much for your time :) however, I still cannot make the plotbook to work. after adding the function, no plot is being displayed after being dragged and dropped in the plotting area. I'm guessing its a version bug , maybe. May I ask what version did you use for this one?

Version 35.6.0

I see. My issue may be version-related. Thank you very much! :) btw, if you don't usually use plotbook, what method are you using?

I am plotting all simulations with matplotlib instead.

I see. That I need to learn. Thank you very much! :)
