Posted - 02/10/2011 : 10:12:28 AM Dear all,
I have a simple question, and could not find any solution so far: My dataset has the following structure
XYP
The "P" is a column that contains a parameter (a discrete parameter, for each parameter, there exist approx 30 X values and the corresponding Y values).
How can I quickly plot the XY values, where automatically different datasets (and therefore colors) are used for different parameter values.
Thanks for any support, Stefan

Origin 6.1 cannot add labels in Ternary. However, our lasted version, Origin 8.5, offers a new feature of adding labels for almost all plot types. After creating a Ternary, you can double click on data points to open the Plot Details dialog. On the Label tab, you can Enable adding labels and specify the label by using values from Col(A). You can download our demo to have a try:

To define the labels as symbols, you can set the Symbol Size to 0 and set Label Position as Center.

Posted - 02/14/2011 : 09:01:51 AM or even is it possible to define the labels as symbols in the graph ? Thanks for helping !

Posted - 02/14/2011 : 05:04:26 AM Thanks but I'd like to include the value on the graph not in the legend. Actually I plot a ternary graph where I want to display on the graph the labels located in the A colum.
I hope it's possible

Posted - 02/11/2011 : 8:16:28 PM Hi cindynico, You can show the P values in the legend. To do this, select Graph: New Enhanced Legend from the main menu when the graph is active.
Is this good enough for you? |

One more question from an Origin newbie: how should I proceed to display on the graph the values of the P column ?
Thanks for helping.

To plot XY values automatically using Parameter column as the category column, you can choose the Show Construction checkbox in the Plot Details dialog. For example, I create same sample data as below
And I want to use the third column Col(P) as the category column. Then I can:
1. Highlight the first two columns and create a Scatter plot.
2. Double click the Scatter plot to open the Plot Details dialog box. Select Show Construction checkbox. Select Geometric radio button. Then choose Col(P) from Shape drop-down list. This will change the symbol shape according to P values. To color symbols according to P column, select Index Col(P) for Symbol Color.
3. Click OK to apply.
