Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
User alper/alpersam on Discord made the following request:
"We want to extract the data for the Cn alpha from a openrocket simulation for post treatment. For now, I think the only option was to go to Tools > Component Analysis and then observe the change in Cn alpha by increasing the Mach from 0 up to 1.2 (for our case)
But it is very difficult and time consuming task, we basically need to manually extract each value at a given point one by one
I was wondering if there is an easier way of directly exporting these (Mach - Cn alpha)"
Describe the solution you'd like
Add a button in the Component Analysis window to Plot/Export variables. This would open a new dialog where you can select the X axis parameter (Mach would be the most useful, but we could also add roll rate, and angle of attack), and the Y axis variables. If e.g. Mach is selected for the x axis, the roll rate and AOA value will take the value configured in the Component Analysis window.
In addition to selecting the x axis variable, the user must also input the value range for that axis (be sure to implement appropriate limiting and sanitization).
For the y axis, the user should also select for which component the variable should be plotted, e.g. 'Total (Rocket)', 'Nose cone', 'Body tube'... These are just the different rows in the component analysis table(s).
Similar to sim plots, the user could then plot the variables, or export them.
