Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 8.5.1 SR2
Operating System: WinXP

Hallo,

sorry for my basic question but I have problems activating a graph window with the command "win -a graph5". Instead of activating window 5 window 50 is activated. Please could you help me about this - thank you very much!

Best regards
JFP

Sounds like a problem with your project - possibly a name conflict, but I don't know how you would have done that. The "window -activate name" command should only activate by Short Name.

Here is a script that dumps all graph Long Names and Short names:
doc -e P {
%A = page.name$;
%B = page.label$;
ty Short Name: %A, Long Name: %B;
}

Hi,

I couldn't figured out what the problem is but I found another problem that might be related to it and is not specific to my project. When I open a new project and create 10 new graphs and I try to activate them with the command "window -b graphX" where X is a substitution of the number of the graph it works in general but not if graph10 is activated and I want to switch back to graph1 using "window -b graph1". Instead of activating graph1, graph 10 stays activated. Although I am able to activate Graphs 2-9. Is any other graph activated besides graph10 it is possible to activate graph1.
Is this problem known and what can I do about that.
Thank's for any help!

window -b name
is a different command than
window -a name

The -b option has more complicated behavior.

We do not see any problem with "win -a" in version 8.5.1 SR2. If you have a project file that demonstrates some problem you should send it to tech@originlab.com
