Is there a way to stop it doing that? I am doing the following: 1. I 1st create a plot with one set of X-Y data (line or scatter plot say). Then I change the scale settings to my liking. 2. Next, I am adding a second set of data in a separate worksheet/workbook/ same worksheet but different Y or X-Y column(s) using Graph --> Add plot to layer --> and then the options therein (line, scatter etc.). Every time I do the second step, the plot will re-scale itself to the whole range which I DO NOT WANT. Is there a way to make the scales "locked" so that it does not re-scales itself every-time a new data set is added to the plot? Also, at present any newly added dataset will have the default black color and 0.5 width. I would like to have them appear in different colors atleast. Now I know how to change the line-template and save that in the user folder so that next time the newly saved customized template will be used. But then i have to do it separately for all the options: line plot, scatter plot, line+scatter plot etc....I guess there may be a easier way to change all these templates together -- any easy way to accomplish that? Thanks in advance. AB [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature. Check here to subscribe to this topic.
