Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 9.0G SR2
Operating System: Win7 x64

Hello,

I am looking for a feature in Origin which I had expected to be more or less straightforward, and which I wasn't able to find. I want to prepare a multi-layer plot (different panels), which I want to "put together" from a few smaller, already existing plots. So what I would like to do is kind-of mark the contents of a layer in an existing graph (or in the layer or graph setup) and past it into another graph.

Is this somehow possible, or do I have to redesign the whole diagram in its target layer?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards
Kristian Lass

Hello,

You can choose Graph: Merge Graph Windows... menu to open a dialog to merge them into one multi-layer graph.
You can watch this video
http://originlab.com/Index.aspx?go=Support/VideoTutorials&pid=1555

BTW, we improved merge graph windows feature in 9.1 to support treat each source graph as one unit. This is helpful when source graph has multiple layers already.
U can read more on this page:
https://originlab.jira.com/wiki/x/6gBLAQ


Also, we do support copy a layer from one graph and paste to another graph.
Here is how to do it.
On a source graph, click within the layer(don't click on any datapoint) to select the whole layer.
--> A frame with 8 handles will show.
Ctrl+C or right click and choose Copy

Go to Destination Graph.
Ctrl+V to paste.
Or right click in graph and choose Paste.
U can see the layer is pasted in the graph.

Then in destination graph, you can use Object Editor toolbar to manually align, resize multiple layers.
Or using Graph: Layer Management to manipulate layers.

Note: If data is dense in a layer and it's hard to select a layer, u can press Alt key and click within the layer to select it.


Thanks, Snow Li
