The Plot node shows the relationship between numeric fields. You can create a plot by using
points (a scatterplot) or lines.

Example
node = stream.create("plot", "My node")
# "Plot" tab
node.setPropertyValue("three_D", True)
node.setPropertyValue("x_field", "BP")
node.setPropertyValue("y_field", "Cholesterol")
node.setPropertyValue("z_field", "Drug")
# "Overlay" section
node.setPropertyValue("color_field", "Drug")
node.setPropertyValue("size_field", "Age")
node.setPropertyValue("shape_field", "")
node.setPropertyValue("panel_field", "Sex")
node.setPropertyValue("animation_field", "BP")
node.setPropertyValue("transp_field", "")
node.setPropertyValue("style", "Point")
# "Output" tab
node.setPropertyValue("output_mode", "File")
node.setPropertyValue("output_format", "JPEG")
node.setPropertyValue("full_filename", "C:/temp/graph_output/plot_output.jpeg")
