# [Veusz 3.6.2](https://veusz.github.io/)
Veusz is a scientific plotting package. It is designed to produce
publication-ready PDF or SVG output. Graphs are built-up by combining
plotting widgets. The user interface aims to be simple, consistent and
powerful.
Veusz provides GUI, Python module, command line, scripting, DBUS and
SAMP interfaces to its plotting facilities. It also allows for
manipulation and editing of datasets. Data can be captured from
external sources such as Internet sockets or other programs.
Changes in 3.6.2:
* Fix broken resource symlink handling
Changes in 3.6.1:
* Fix appdata file
* Fix issue in setup.cfg
Changes in 3.6:
* Interactive rotation of 3D plots
* Add 12-bit rainbow colormap
* Fix crash in contour key values
* Fix breakage with recent numpy versions due to removal of bool
* Fix error in colormap sequence
* About dialog shows software versions
* Rewrite install instructions in INSTALL.md
* Fix for Python 3.11 due to opening with universal newlines
* Remove use of distutils
* Fix MacOS binary
## Features of package:
### Plotting features:
* X-Y plots (with errorbars)
* Line and function plots
* Contour plots
* Images (with colour mappings and colorbars)
* Stepped plots (for histograms)
* Bar graphs
* Vector field plots
* Box plots
* Polar plots
* Ternary plots
* Plotting dates
* Fitting functions to data
* Stacked plots and arrays of plots
* Nested plots
* Plot keys
* Plot labels
* Shapes and arrows on plots
* LaTeX-like formatting for text
* Multiple axes
* Axes with steps in axis scale (broken axes)
* Axis scales using functional forms
* Plotting functions of datasets
* 3D point plots
* 3D surface plots
* 3D function plots
* 3D volumetric plots
### Input and output:
* PDF/EPS/PNG/SVG/EMF export
* Dataset creation/manipulation

* Text, HDF5, CSV, FITS, NPY/NPZ, QDP, binary and user-plugin importing
* Data can be captured from external sources
### Extending:
* Use as a Python module
* User defined functions, constants and can import external Python functions
* Plugin interface to allow user to write or load code to
- import data using new formats
- make new datasets, optionally linked to existing datasets
- arbitrarily manipulate the document
* Scripting interface
* Control with DBUS and SAMP
### Other features:
