		This action will also set default Title and File name of plot the same as loaded file.

	3.2 Plotting basic data

		To plot some data check X and Y checkboxes (You can check multiple X and Y checkboxes) to determine what will be on OX and OY. Then click "Plot" button. 
		Axis names are taken from last checked boxes.

		Title: To change title, write your title in title text field and click "Plot" button.
		X Axis and Y Axis: Inherit from Title.
		File name: Inherit from Title
		Legend: To set Legend to plots write legend in Legend text field (each legend separated by coma for every plot).
