Is there any way to convert a line plot to a polyline object.
I noticed that plot template does not contain plot data,,,,,but i have some similar plot combined with fixed lines and variable data point.So ,i hope i can convert line plot to polyline object then i can save as template to plot different variable data point.

Yes,the limitations are:
1.Do not change size when resize plot
2.Do not change direction when reverse axis scale.


Thanks very much and expecting the next version will solve these problems.I have written an origin C script to convert the line plot to polyline object,but i think EMF is the best way to design templates.

Hi dddang,

Yes, I have confirmed the limitation. Though you can change the size of the attached image manually, the size doesn't change automatically when the attached layer size is changed. I will request our developers to fix the problem.

I have to say it is a workable way .
The question is when i resize the plot the EMF object does not change size even i attach EMF to layer and scale.Is it a bug of origin?So, if i use this way to make template i can not resize the plot.


I think the great Origin still has space to improve.

Hi dddang,

Though not making a polyline object, you can make an EMF image object by copying the graph page ("Edit: Copy Page" menu); then you can paste it to any graph which is saved as a template. (If you like, you can first select-and-delete each axis, axis label, axis tile, and legend before Copy Page.)

Does it achieve what you intended?
