Hi, I am using external python and the originpro package to automatically import my data and create plots from this data.

I am now trying to add Reference Lines with a label at specific x-positions just like it is possible from the Axis dialog box under the 'Reference Lines' tab.

So far, I have only found the X-function 'addline' which I was able to call from Python but this did not allow me to have arbitrary labels for the line.

Is there a possibility to automatically add Reference lines at some given x-values with String-labels also provided from the Python program?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Try the script below

import originpro as op
gl = op.new_graph()[0]
gl.set_int('x.reflines.count',1)
gl.set_int('x.reflines.lineshow',1)
gl.set_float('x.refline1.value',4)
gl.set_int('x.refline1.labelshow',1)
gl.set_str('x.refline1.labeltext','abc')
gl.lt_exec("RLX1.rotate=90") ## RLX1 is the object name of the label

Nice, it works! Thank you very much for the script.

Would it also be possible to rotate the label so that they are displayed vertically?

In some of my plots the labels overlap if I add too many and having them vertically would be more space-saving.
