I write a constraint command,

nlsf.constr$="460>p4>=400;";

but it seems that origin doesn't take into account this line. When I write nlsf.nconstr=; the answer is 0.
Someone can help me ?

Very nice jc001.

A few additional notes:

  • You don't really need to check the value of the General Linear Constraints key since you plan on setting it to "On" in the macro every time.

  • In Origin 7 the syntax is a bit easier since the setstr method takes additional arguments:

    ini.setstr(keyValue,keyName,sectionName,fileName\pathName);

    For example:

    ini.setstr(On,General Linear Constraints,Controls,%YFitFunc\%1.fdf);

  • Finally, I found a suggestion in our database which requests an addition to the nlsf object. If implemented, the new nlsf object property would provide read/write access to the General Linear Constraints check box. I have updated the suggestion with all the names in this post.

This is the problem I have been experiencing,
(see my post on CONSTRAINTS). The nlsf.constr$ property will only seem to allow you to set the string, I cannot get it to return the currently set string (the Origin help file documents it as a Read-Only
property).

As for forcing a new function to have constraints enabled, I use this macro:

def TurnOnConstr {

ini.file$=%YFitFunc\%1.fdf;
ini.section$=Controls;
ini.key$=General Linear Constraints;
ini.getStr(S,Off);
if(%S=="Off"){
ini.setStr(On);
};

};

Where %1 is the function file name you are
using. This macro must be run before
you initialize the fitter with the fitting function.

Hope this might help.

I think I've found the solution.
When you define your function that you'll use to fit your data, you must define
General linear constraints = ON ?
Is there a command to do it automaticaly ?
Thanks for your help.

You probably need to break it into two separate conditions. Try this...

nlsf.constr$="p4<460 && p4>=400";

this is exactly the problem. Even I leave the semicolon, it seems that the constraint is not enabled

What do you mean by "It doesn't work"? If you type these lines in the script window...

nlsf.constr$="460>p4>=400;";
%A=nlsf.constr$;
%A=;

don't you get the following response?

460>p4>=400;

If you mean that the constraint is not obeyed during the fitting session then I'd leave out the semicolon...

nlsf.constr$="460>p4>=400";

You must access it as a string...

%A=nlsf.constr$;
%A=;
