Hi,

I wonder if there is any example for producing a line graph (gtype=line) by running a batch file or a script? All examples in VERDI scripts are for tile plot.  
If anyone can provide such a thing, I also appreciate if they can comment on the production of a line graph for a probe at a specific cell.

cheers,

You can create a line plot by changing gtype=tile to gtype=line.

I am attaching the example script that will work using the following command once you copy it to the data/scripts directory under the VERDI package.

```auto
./verdi.command -batch ./data/scripts/O3_lineplot_png.txt

```
