Ranked-Hits Diagram

The ranked-hits diagram shows the relative frequency of occurrence of the category with the highest, second highest, and lowest forecast probabilities, for each time step.

The scores can be saved by right-clicking on the graphs. Similarly, the graphic can be saved as a BMP, EMF, GIF, JPEG, PCX, or PNG file by right-clicking anywhere in the child window. A default name is given to the graphic file, but this name can be changed using the browse button. The quality of the JPEG file can be adjusted using the slider or by the quality indicator, which ranges between 0.01 and 1.00. The highest quality is obtained using 1.00. The size of the JPEG file is affected by the quality chosen, with larger files being generated the higher the selected quality. The image quality for all the graphics formats can be improved by increasing the size of the image (see Options ~ Graphics ~ Graph Scaling).
