Measurement analyze is made in two steps:
  1. Selecting measurements
  2. Graphical analyze


Selecting measuremtns


At this step a table with all measurements apprears. Next to each measurement's name there is a check box. Using check boxes you can un/select measurements. You can also filter measurements by entering a value in the Filter text box and pressing Run button. Filter is looking for all measurement names that contain the requested string. Thus to remove all previously made filters, leave filter text field blank and press Run button. Using Clear All and Select All buttons all measurements can be dis/selected. One more thing, you can sort the table by pressing on table's header.
In the following screenshot two measurements were selected.
In order to get graphical view, after making appropriate selection press "Update Graph" button.

Graphical analyze


When "Update Graph" button pressed and there was some selection made a graph appears. This is a simple two axis graph. The horizontal axe is time and the vertical is value. In order to clarify this issue I'll use the example from screenshots. At the first step "3KM run" and "Waist" measurements were selected. At the following graph screenshot we have two series, the red one ("Waist" measurement) and the black one ("3KM run" measurement). Using the graph we can see that over time both series decrease. In other words, we run 3KM faster and waist circumference decreases (true except the end of the series). Thus we can conclude that in this case there is a positive correlation between 3KM run improvement and waist circumference decrease. We can also see that there is a negative correlation to the end of the series. Additional parameters should be considered for this issue to be clarified. For example, adding "daily calories eaten" measurement or "amount of sleeping hours" measurement.
