Origin Ver. and Service Release: 9.4.0.220 Pro
Operating System: Win10Pro 64-bit
Hello everyone,
Is there a way how to replace the indices of the GraphLayers by words ("1" => "MyLayer #1", "2" => "SunnyDay", etc.)?
I would like to know how to do this manually in Origin and in Origin C, too.
Many thanks for your help in advance. |

Hi,
Do you mean you want to show the names of layers instead of the numbers in the upper left corner?
I am afraid that we do not support this requirement at present. However, I will forward your message to our weekly share meeting and see what we can do to improve it.
Regards,
Yuki

Hello Yuki,
Many thanks for you reply and interest. Yes, this is what I mean. It would simplify many things (apps) - instead of plotting 3 different charts, I could plot one with 3 layers and then use "Show active layer only". But it would be great if the layers had self-explanatory names so that users could see what is inside...
All the best. |

The tooltip is a quick fix indeed but the text would be much better - self-explaining and clear at first sight. In my experience, if the numbers are there (even several, not just 1-2) one may miss it out completely or may not be interested at all to find out what is hiding there.
Thanks! |

how about we allow those boxes to be customizable in page level so you can specify to use 1,2,3,4 characters so longer layer names will be truncated.
