Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5 SR 5
Operating System: XP
Hi,
can anyone please help me to understand how to use the
following two options in the dialog builder:
1) DialogName!graph.create(TemplateName);
2) DialogName!GraphPlaceholderName.attach();
My first problem is, that the template is not found, instead a layer with a default gtemplate is created. Do I have to add a path to the templates?
My second problem is: How can I select a given dataset in order to plot it in my dialog-window. I used the layer icon selection tool as with normal graph-windows, but the datasets selected were not plotted.
Thanks for help!
Stefan

Hi Mike,
thanks very much again. Everything is working fine now.
By the way: The description of this feature in the Origin Textbook is a little sparse...
Bye
Stefan

Hi Stefan,
As long as the template is on your User path or the program path you don't need to include the path. (If it's in a subfolder you do need the subfolder name.) Adding plots to the graph is best done by script. Here's the approach that I've been using...
DialogName!graph.create(TemplateName);
DialogName!GraphPlaceholderName.attach();
doc -e P {%W=%H}; // find name of graph window
win -o %W {
lay -i Data1_B; // plot Data1_B
};
The "proper" way to do this is described in an earlier topic...
