When I create a line graph I need to be able to quickly change the scale so I can scan over the graph horizontally without much problem. What is the easiest way to create such a function. I have seen it done in an origin test file.

Hi,

I stand corrected! You can access the x and y scale limits from Origin C in 7SR1. The following code scrolls the x axis by a percentage. Make a graph layer active and call from script window:
scrollx 10
to scroll x by 10% to right, and
scrollx -10
to scroll x by 10% left



void scrollx(int iscroll)
{
	// scroll x axis by iscroll%
	GraphLayer	gl = Project.ActiveLayer();
	if(!gl)
	{
		out_str("not a valid graph layer!");
		return;
	}
	double xlow = gl.X.From;
	double xhigh = gl.X.To;	
	gl.X.From = xlow + (xhigh - xlow) * iscroll / 100.;
	gl.X.To = xhigh + (xhigh - xlow) * iscroll / 100.;
}

Additionally, you can fix your macro by omitting the () in the definition:

def Scroll {
  getn (left margin) X1 (right margin) X2 (Enter X axis margins);
}

PS... I think Easwar meant to use LT_set_var rather than LT_get_var in his OriginC function.

Hi,

Looks like you want access to getting and setting the axis limits from Origin C. This functionality is being added to Origin C and should be available in the next service release. In the mean time, you can call LabTalk from within Origin C with code like below:


void scroll()
{
	double x1, x2;
	// Call LabTalk to bring up dialog, get and set axis limits
	LT_execute("getn (left margin) X1 (right margin) X2 (Enter X axis margins)"); 
	// Get LabTalk variables into Origin C variables
	LT_get_var("X1", &x1);
	LT_get_var("X2", &x2);
	printf("%f %f\n", x1, x2);
}

Thank you for the function but I am receiving the following error:

C:\Program Files\OriginLab\OriginPro7\OriginC\Scroll.c(28) :Error, syntax error in variable declaration.

when entering the following command into LabTalk:

def Scroll() {
getn (left margin) X1 (right margin) X2 (Enter X axis margins);

}
Could you possibly tell me why I am running into errors with this? Thanks.

You can easily do that in LabTalk by assigning the following command to a macro or button...

getn (left margin) X1 (right margin) X2 (Enter X axis margins);

You can similarly adjust the Y scale... just replace all X with Y.
