Hi,
I think I asked this question years ago (Origin 5?) - Origin appears to always plot datasets when a graph window is active. I actually find this a bit of a nuisance for my appliactions but usually get around this by making a worksheet tempoorarily active eg
win -o Data1 { create pete -n 1; create pete2 -c 2; }
Is this correct and/or is there a better way to avoid this (eg I always have to now the name of an existing worksheet)?
Cheers,
Pete

using the -w related options does not plot the dataset, like
create test1 -wd 100 aa bb cc;
or if you want the worksheet created as well, but minimized,
create test2 -wh 100 aa bb cc;

Hi CP,
Thanks for reply.
Just to check : the help file says -wd / -wdn options create datasets but not worksheet.
How does this differ from create -t : maybe this is whatI want? Why might I then use create test1 -wd 100 aa bb cc?
Cheers,
pete

create test1 -w[options] npts col...;
will not plot to the current graph, but
create test1_aa -t npts;
will plot to the current graph.
-wd[n] will create datasets without worksheet -w will create worksheet -wh[n] will create datasets with minimized worksheet

Hi CP,
create test1_aa -t npts doesn't plot to graph..as per help documentation.
So I might actually regard create -w options as hidden (not plotting)worksheets and create -t as (non plottin) (single) datasets?
Cheers,
Pete

sorry, you are right, create -t does not plot to current graph.
