Matrix has a
number of types of Limits Graph windows. Each graph is designed
to display all or part of the unity formula for a recipe or blend
on screen. The formula for the recipe is plotted against a set of
limit values determined by the current temperature setting in Matrix.

This Limits
graph window is opened by clicking the
button on the tool bar.
The graph
displays bars indicating the upper and lower limits for each
oxide for Cone 10 firings.
The oxide
values for the unity formula of the currently loaded recipe
are indicated by the small yellow rectangles.
The Load
New Limits File item in the Action menu
can be used to change the set of limits displayed.

This Limits
graph window is opened by clicking the button
on the tool bar.
The graph
displays a blue rectangle indicating the upper and lower limits
for Al2O3 and SiO2 for Cone 10 firings.
The Al2O3
and SiO2 values for the unity formula of the currently
loaded recipe are indicated by the small yellow rectangle.
The Load
New Limits File item in the Action menu
can be used to change the set of limits displayed.

This Limits
graph window is opened by clicking the
button in the Blends environment after the creation
of a blend.
The graph
displays bars indicating the upper and lower limits for each
oxide for Cone 10 firings.
The oxide
values for the unity formula of all the recipes created in
the blend are indicated by small yellow rectangles. The red
rectangle plot the corner recipes for the blend

Selecting
a New Set of Limits Data for the Limits Graphs
The currently
loaded limits file may be changed to access a different set of limits
data by selecting the Load New Limits File
item in the Action menu.
This displays
list of the Limit Files on disc. When you scroll through this list
with the Page Up / Down keys or click on the list with the mouse,
the Limits Graph bars and the rectangle in the Al / Si Graph change
to reflect the new set of limits.
This facility
is very useful when you wish comparing the displayed formula against
the various limits tables commonly used.
In some cases
limit tables only contain data for certain cone / temperatures.
For example the Cushing limits are available only for cone 04, cones
5-6 and for cones 9-10 and have been generated specifically for
glossy, satin and Matt surfaces.
