Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin):
Operating System:windows xp

I would appreciate some help or thoughts.

I have one worksheet that contains "time" in the first column and about 20 other parameters in the remaining columns.

I plot all the parameters as a function of time on individual graphs.

When I refresh the data (i.e., reload the worksheet), the new set of data may be for a different length of time.

Can I easily modify the x-axis attributes (e.g., range, tick marks)of all the graphs with one operation? I don't want to edit each individual graph every time I change data.

Thanks,
Len

Saves me a lot of time.

Hi Len,

This script 
doc -e p {layer.x.from=500; layer.x.to=1200};
can change the X-axis scales of all graphs in your current project to 500 - 1200.

Deanna,

I wasn't successful.

Can you give me the script for the following change to the x-axis range (i.e., time scale)?

I should be able to understand the methodology for changing other x-axis attributes based on your answer.

Change the x-axis range from 0-1000 to 500-1200.

Thanks,
Len

Thanks for the information.

I will try.

Hi Len,

I suggest running a LabTalk script script each time after the data is updated. The script can be programmed to update the graph scales. For example, the below script rescales all graphs in the project:

doc -e p {rescale;};


After the data is updated, you can copy the script in the Script Window / Command Window and execute it. If you wish to perform other modification to the axes, please modify the script above.

If you are using the Import Wizard to import the data into the data worksheet, you may even opt to put the script in an import filter so that it can be executed automatically after the importing is done.

Let us know if you have more questions.
