This function displays the ratio data/model for a data set.

  • newframe (bool, optional) – Create a new frame for the data? If False, the default, then the data will be displayed in the current frame.
  • tile (bool, optional) – Should the frames be tiles? If False, the default, then only a single frame is displayed.
