      Hello,

      As far as I can tell, the graph is created using report definitions (RD). You can can also use RDs to create Named Expressions. Does this answer your question?

        No, he doesn't answer. What kind of expression will it be? Will you write his code?

      Before you have created the RD, just select the option of "Print to Console" or just click on "Compute" to display the value.

        I need to look at the graph for the calculation time.

        I wouldn’t want to look at the console; there are a lot of parameters jumping around every second.

        I need to display the current reading on a graph. This can be done by expression. Tell me what expression to use?

      You can just hover over the residuals/plots with the mouse to display the values during or after the calculation.

        Is it impossible to display a number on the graph screen? I thought this could be done using a certain expression. For example, as “time” in the post-processor and then the time will be shown in the animation.

      You can turn the titles on (Preferences, I think) and that will add the title bar which includes time.

        I don't need time, I said it as an example! I need the current reading on the graph in the form of a digital scoreboard on the graph in real time calculation sir.

      In which case, no, that's not available at present. You can view the value in the TUI if you also print the report.

        It's a pity. Thanks for the answer

      Keep an eye on the next releases. With all the graphics enhancements it may be something that gets added.
