Hello everybody,

I am learning at the moment how to program simple scripts with LabTalk in Origin 2019. My aim at the moment is, to create a row of different line-diagrams with 2 column-datasets in it. The first column should be fixed, the second column should go from col(83) col(end). In each created diagram, the x-values should be rotated 45° and the x-unit should be deleted. The Y-Units should be changed to the text that is the columns unit.

I created the following loop for this, but there is an error when I execute it:

[b]loop (ii, 83, 108) {plotxy iy:=((1,2),(1,$(ii))) plot:=200
layer.x.label.rotate=45
xb.text$ = ""
yl.text$ = %(?Y, @LU);};[/b]

If I only execute the first line:
[b]loop (ii, 83, 108) {plotxy iy:=((1,2),(1,$(ii)) plot:=200);};[/b]

i get the following error:

[b]plotxy:X-Function failed to execute!
Bad argument, iy:=
((1,2),(1,83) plot:=200)
#Command Error![/b]

Can someone help me here? I know this is probably a simple question, but as I said, I am an absolute beginner.

THank you!

yuki_wu	Posted - 05/29/2019 : 11:38:07 PM Hi, You put the bracket at a wrong position. It should be: plotxy iy:=((1,2),(1,$(ii))) plot:=200; However, even though we correct the bracket position, the script: loop (ii, 83, 108) { plotxy iy:=((1,2),(1,$(ii))) plot:=200}; means to loop over from 83 to 108 to plot col(1) & col(2) and col(1) & col(i) as a line plot This might not you want. You could take a look at this page to find more info about how to define the input range: https://www.originlab.com/doc/X-Function/ref/plotxy Regards, Yuki OriginLab
