Go to Common Results Node Settings for links to information about these sections: Data, Title, Coloring and Style, and Inherit Style. See below for the sections specific to this plot: Trajectory Data and Selection.

There is an additional setting under Coloring and Style for this plot. The Type of Point Style available includes Comet tail. Comet tail plots provide a convenient way to indicate the direction of travel of points at a given point in time. The tail of the comet typically points in the opposite direction to the point’s velocity — so visually, it is the same as the tail of a comet approaching the sun. See Defining the Coloring and Style for the Comet tail settings.

If Points is selected, enter expressions that are valid at the location of the points in the x-expression, y-expression, and z-expression fields. The expressions can include the time and the space coordinates, for example. You select the points that you want to plot trajectories for in the Selection section below and by clicking directly in the Graphics window.
