<div>This is way harder than it should be, but it is working in 5.0:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. Select the block you want the plot for. You can over the mouse over the block and hit the b key.</div>
<div>2. Run the "Extract Selection" filter on that block.</div>
<div>3. Open the Find Data dialog.</div>
<div>4. In the first line, choose points or cells (depending on what you want to plot), and "ExtractSelection#".</div>
<div>5. In the first criterium line, select "ID" "is >=" "0"</div>
<div>6. Click "Run Selection Query"</div>
<div>7. Click "Plot Selection Over Time"</div>
<div>8. Apply the filter that is created.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The resulting plot will show the min, max, average, and quartiles of all the variables. Select down to the one you want to see.</div>
