I am trying to produce a simple column graph without space or overlap between columns. When I go to 'plot details > spacing tab' the overlap parameter is non-selectable (see attached image), it is possible to adjust the width of the columns by altering the 'Gap Between Bars' parameter but with the options available this always leaves either a gap between the columns or an overlap (as shown).


Does anyone know why this option is non-selectable? Please can someone suggest a solution, this should be a very simple task.

Set your X column Format to Text before plotting and Origin will plot against row but use the X values as Tick Labels.

Hi 0-2

This problem occurs if you plot against X axis values that overlap. It can be fixed by plotting for example against the row index. To make this clear I am attaching an image:



The Overlap option will only appear clickable if you plotted from more than one column (and therefore more than one dataset). It looks like you only plotted from one column.
