This modifier computes the histogram of the values of a certain property, taken over all particles, bonds or other data elements in the dataset. The modifier furthermore lets you select all data elements that fall within a specified value interval.
Selects the class of data elements the modifier should operate on (e.g. particles, bonds, etc). The drop-down list will only let you select classes that are present in the modifier's pipeline input.
The source property for the histogram.
Controls the resolution of the computed histogram.
Restricts the histogram calculation to the subset of particles or bonds that are currently selected.
This option lets the modifier perform a selection of all data element whose property values fall into the specified range.
These modifier parameters control the histogram plot shown in the panel and let you zoom into a sub-region.
Note that the Histogram modifier calculates the histogram for the current simulation frame only and outputs it as a data table that may vary with simulation time. Subsequently, you can use the Time averaging modifier of OVITO to reduce all per-frame histograms to one mean histogram, which represents the average over all frames of the simulation trajectory.
