Hello Snowli,

Thanks

Hello,

I tried in 9.0 and as you said the @wt isn't supported in 9.0. It was added later.

As a workaround, in 9.0, you can use
%(2@W, 3, 4) -- 2nd plot's corresponding worksheet. 3th colum, 4th row.
$(%(2@W, 3, 4), .2) -- using this $( , .2) to keep 2 decimal places. Using $( , *3) to keep 3 significant digits.

Thanks, Snow

Hello Snowli,

Somehow the link @WT does not work. I also looked at the blog you suggested and downloaded the file. Also in this file the link to the desired cell does not work. But it is exactly what I need :-)

@cdrozdowski111: doesn't give me the value of the desired cell back....gives back the x-Value of my chart in the x's-Row "\l(2) %(2,@D,x)"

I use OriginPro 9G 64bit.

Thanks

Note: Legend is just a special text object in Origin so the syntax also works for legend.

e.g. %(2, @WT, 3, 4) -- 2nd plot's corresponding worksheet. 3th colum, 4th row.

$(%(2, @WT, 3, 4),.2) -- using this $( , .2) to keep 2 decimal places. Using $( , *3) to keep 3 significant digits.

Hi bergschofal,

Try this where 2 represents 2nd plot:

\l(2) %(2,@D,1)


Does this solve your issue?

Thanks,

Hello Hideo,

I'm a little late, but need some help.
Is it possible to edit these legend entry not writing 'book1' but
as @W. Somehow it doesn't work and I have lots of books, from whome I would like to get a text in a column in the legend...

example:

\l(2) %(book1,1,1) --> leads to the wanted number
\l(2) %(@W,1,1) --> leads to @@@

Thanks

Hi barni0606,

By setting the proper column and row numbers, the substitution notation should work as in the screenshot below.
(Of course, in this case, the legend element is a text, you don't need the formatting notation $(....). )



For the details of the substitution notation, see:

Hi,

Sorry that doesnīt work like i would like it. I have got three columns. In the first column are the names of the examples which should be in the legend. In the columns 2 and free are the x and y values. I hope this helps for the solution.

Hi,

You can use the substitution notation in the legend textto refer to a value of a specific dataset value. For example:

  $(%(Book1,2,3),.2)
  (or $(%([Book1]Sheet1,2,3),.2)   )
This means the third row in the second column in Book1. (Here, ".2" is a format element to set the decimal place to 2.
Then, right-click the legend, select "Programming Control" flyout, and set the "Link to(%, $) Substitution Level" to 1.
(Note: In this screenshot, I have made the "special point" at the third bar by SHIFT+doubleClick to emphasize it.)



Hope this helps.

Post note: %([Book1]Sheet1,2,3,.2) also should work.
