The Hits Graph tab is tied to the Search tab The core tab used to search Bible texts, it consists of a search entry area and a search results area. Double-click anywhere inside the graph frame to scroll to the corresponding location in the search results text pane.

• Vertical axis: Number of hits
• Horizontal axis: Search range
• Legend (below graph): Search argument for each graph
• The tab does not scroll, but as it is widened or lengthened, the graph adjusts to fit.

You can superimpose up to seven graphs in the same tab, each graph with results of a different search in a different color.

• Keep: Click to keep the current graph in the tab, the next time a search is performed in the associated Search tab; the new graph is superimposed on the current graph.
• Keep is dimmed after you click it, indicating this graph has been saved.
• The first time you click Keep, a reminder appears, advising the graph will be kept only if the search text and range are not changed for the subsequent search.
• Clear: This button is dimmed unless there are two or more graphs in the tab. Click Clear to remove background graphs, leaving only the results of the current search.
• Shortcuts to Add/Remove Search Results
• To keep the current graph and add the new one, enter the desired search argument in the Search Entry box and press Shift+Enter.
• To remove a specific search from the graph, move the cursor over one of the search labels in the legend until an X appears, and then click the label.
