Dear all!
I am analysing the results of a round robin test, with 15 laboratories participating. Therefore I create a graph with the LAB Codes (1-15) on the x-axis. As some LABS did not deliver all data, some tick-marks should remain free. Therefore I use the command (script window)
layer1.x.ticksbydata$=data1_a;
That works fine, but when I copy and paste the graph to a word doc, this settings get lost (sometimes, not allways)
Is there any simple way to fix the settings?
Thanks for any suggestion,
Hauli

Dear Laurie,
thank you for your hints, pasting the graphs as a picture works great and my settings remain.

Hi Hauli,
When you use the "ticksbydata" LabTalk command, you need to paste the graph as a picture and not as an OLE object (which is the default). Select Paste Special and then you can choose Picture instead of Origin Graph Object.
But in your case, I'd not use the "ticksbydata" command. Instead, I'd set your X column to Text and then if you have an empty cell (no data for a particular LAB code), it will not plot as a tick label. (If you double-click on the tick labels, the Axis dialog will open, and you'll notice that the Labels are of Type, Text from Dataset.)
Note: To set your X column as Text, double-click on the column heading to open the Worksheet Column Format dialog and change the Format from Text & Numeric to Text.
