Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 90E x64
Operating System: Win 8.1 x64

Hi all,

I have a problem with a script that is plotting some data and then applying a theme:

//some plotting into 3 layers, not included
layer -s 1;
yl.text$ = "text";
layer -s 2;
label -yr "text";
yr.fsize=28;
yr.color=12;
yr.rotate=-90;
layer.y2.label.numformat=5;
layer -s 3;
label -xt "text";
xt.fsize=28;
xt.top=50;

What's happening now is that all the lines are executed, but NOT:

layer.y2.label.numformat=5;
and
xt.top=50;

However if I copy the whole script into the script window and execute it line by line it works like a charm.

I tried thousend possibilities, such as putting the ignored lines at the very end in a distinct section. Did not help.

I also tried putting it in a separate script, patch.ogs, containing:

layer -s 2;
layer.y2.label.numformat=5;
layer -s 3;
xt.top=50;

*When I execute this script manually after the original one, it works.
*When I call the patch script at the end of the original script using
run.file(%y...\patch.ogs)
Surprise: It does not work. I put a type -b "done" at the end of the patch-file, to be sure it really is executed and not aborted.
The done message is shown, but the layer-formatting commands are ignored. Not so if I just call the script manually after the original one. What is wrong here?

Is there any command like relax for latex? To tell it to take a break and get it's stuff together, focus on the next line?

Thank you very much for any hints!

Best regards,
lunchpack

Hi,

You can try adding a "sec -p 0.1" (to pause the current process for 0.1s) between the working part and the ignored part.
