Hi guys,
How do I add error bars to multiple graphs?
I have plotted multiple graphs from multiple worksheets from a workbook.
I then plotted an average plot of all those plots. How do I add error bars from already plotted graphs?
The method described in the help file says to select the multiple Y columns and choose statistics on rows to create mean and Yerr columns. But my data are among multiple sheets, and it doesnt allow me to select rows across multiple sheets, it only allows to select rows in one particular sheet at a time.
Is there a way to do that. If not Id have to copy and paste each Y column from around 30 sheets to a single worksheet.
Please help
Thanks |

Hi DataConv,
Thank you so much for the reply. I did not know this was also a way.
But I can only select one column from each sheet. So I still have to create columns and open the dialog box. So if I have 30 columns I have to keep clicking on create columns etc...
Is there a way I can first create 30 columns in the temp worksheet and then choose columns from multiple sheets in the script dialog box?
Right now im using a Labtalk script to pick and place columns from each worksheet into the temp worksheet using the same range method.
But i have to keep renaming the worksheet like S1,S2,S3 etc, since im using a for loop and I need a number to index the sheet. As a result i lose the original name of the sheet which describes the data set.
ANy help would be appreciated. |

Hello,
You don't have to copy and paste the datasets. Create a new worksheet as temporary workspace for the data to process and display (of course your workfile might get huge - but that's the price). In the new worksheet you mark a column and open the 'Set value' dialogue (as for calculation). Then in the upper menu of this dialog you find 'variables' and in that the point 'insert range variable'. Now a browser opens and you can select the column of the sheet you are interested in. After the selection, in the script part of the 'Set value' dialogue should be something like r1 = range ... . Simply type the 'r1' in the calculation window. On 'Apply' or 'Ok' you now have a copy of the column in the new sheet. Changes in your original data will be regarded depending on the option 'automatically' or 'manual' recalculation mode...
I would advice to use the <Ctrl><Q> key combination to open this dialogue. Faster than clicking around... |
