adding requested functionality for writing the file path to the console, briefly looked at the clipboard request too, but it may be a little more involved for different systems, or have to introduce another library to abstract the clipboard, so, i didn't want to introduce a new dependency.

#3943

using ScottPlot;

Plot plt = new();
plt.Add.Signal(Generate.Sin());
plt.Add.Signal(Generate.Cos());

plt.SavePng("test.png", 600, 300).ConsoleWriteFilename();

Thanks @aespitia! I think I'll rename ConsoleWriteFilename to ConsoleWritePath because the full path (not just the filename) will be shown. Also I think I can solve the clipboard issue by adding extension methods to the various control projects. I'll give that a quick go and merge shortly!

Note: to get copy-to-clipboard to work in a console app you need to modify the .csproj file to target Windows, use Windows Forms libraries, and add the STAThread attribute to the main method like:

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

    <PropertyGroup>
        <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
        <TargetFramework>net8.0-windows</TargetFramework>
        <ImplicitUsings>enable</ImplicitUsings>
        <Nullable>enable</Nullable>
        <IsPackable>false</IsPackable>
        <UseWindowsForms>true</UseWindowsForms>
    </PropertyGroup>
...
using ScottPlot.WinForms;

public static class Program
{
    [STAThread]
    public static void Main()
    {
        Plot plt = new();
        plt.Add.Signal(Generate.Sin());
        plt.Add.Signal(Generate.Cos());

        plt.SavePng("test.png", 600, 300).CopyToClipboard();
    }
}
