Hi, Origin engineer:
When I try to put error bar on one curve,using the default way that each data point associated with an error bar. I find out that the error bar is too small be clearly seen. I wonder if I can put the error bar sign just beside the curve (like a legend)instead of error bar for each data point? |

Hi yi zhu,
Currently, error bars don't have independent offset control, but you can plot the same data points
"twice" with an offset. Here is one possible work-around:
1) Make a plot XY with no YErr. (from col(A) and col(B) in the sample)
2) Double-click the layer icon to show the Layer Contents dialog.
Move both Y data and YErr data in the left panel to the right panel.
3) Still in Layer Contents dialog, choose both Y datasets (actuallt the same), and press
"Group" button. (See screenshot.) Click OK.
4) Double-click a plot to show Plot Details dialog. In the left panel of the dialog, choose "Layer1" branch.
Then, select "Stack" tab, turn ON the "Individual" radio button, and turn ON the check box of "X".
5) In the left panel of the dialog, choose the first plot ("A[X] B[Y]" in the sample),
choose "Group" tab, and select "Independent" radio button for editing.
6) In the left panel of the dialog, choose the second plot (another "A[X] B[Y]"), and enter the X offset value (0.5 in my sample).
Also, choose "Symbol" tab, and set the symbol size to 0.
7) In the left panel of the dialog, choose the YErr dataset ("A[X] B[Y] C[yEr]" in the sample), and turn ON the
"Through Symbol" check box. Click OK to close Plot Detail dialog.
Of course, you can customize any plot attributes like error bar color, thickness, etc.
Hope this works for you.
