johannes.kastl	Posted - 07/19/2013 : 06:54:22 AM Hi there, in http://www.originlab.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=18588 I got a solution to copy formats between objects with labtalk. I could get this solution working with text objects and axis titles, but I failed to copy formats between axes and their labels (the numbers or categories, not the axis titles). How to select the x-lable with labtalk? How to select the x-axis itself? page -s layer1.x.label does nothing, while page -s xb selects the title of the x axis. In my case I have lots of graphs where I need to change the 'special ticks' (or whatever it is called in english). And AFAIK they are not manageable with labtalk directly (in contrast to the e.g. axis scaling). Thanks in advance, Johannes Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 9.0.0G SR2, Operating System: WinXP

johannes.kastl	Posted - 07/19/2013 : 07:07:28 AM I found the select command, which should return the name of the selected object via select -g F;%F= Works with the axis title, the legend and a polyline, but not with the axis itself or the axis label. BUT: If I copy the format of the axis label manually, select the axis label in another graph and then use labtalk to paste the format via run.section(file, pasteFormats); it works. The special tick is where it should be. So I just need to get the damn label selected with labtalk... ;-) regards, Johannes
