Hello to all origin users!
Can anyone tell me if is it possible to do a color ternary contour plot?
Thanks in advance for your attention,
Vera

Hi Vera,

The ternary plot doesn't lend itself to easy customization, but you can add a "fourth dimension" to the XYZ plot by using the values in a fourth data set to control the color of the scatter plot symbols. To do this:

  1. Create a ternary plot using documented methods.

  2. Add a fourth column to your worksheet and enter your "color control" data.
  3. From the menu, select Format:Plot. This opens the Symbol tab of the Plot Details dialog box.
  4. Click the Symbol Color button, then Color Mapping and choose the data set that contains the "color control" data.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Delete the legend and add a color scale using the Graph toolbar.


I hope this helps.

Thanks, Mike, for your help.
Your solution is a way of doing what I want. Thank you very much.
Can you please tell me if is there any "dll" to use ORIGIN graphs inside a labview interface?

Hi Vera,

You can communicate with Origin from other clients such as LabVIEW, using the Automation Server feature that was introduced in version 7.5. In fact, with LabVIEW, a number of sub VI's are available in a special palette that gets installed with Origin. These allow you to transfer data back and forth between LabVIEW and Origin, and to send commands to Origin. As for Origin graphs, you cannot use them directly inside the LabVIEW interface, but could send data to Origin running as a server, have Origin process the data (if needed), and get a static image of the graph via the clipboard, and show in LabVIEW etc.

There is a also a LabVIEW VI browser in Origin that allows you to stay in Origin and open and run LabVIEW VIs.

If you have Origin/OriginPro 7.5, or have the demo for 7.5, please look under the Origin Help file subtopic:
Interfacing with Other Applications>LabVIEW
for general information on these features, and under the Programming help file subtopic:
Custom VIs for LabVIEW
for information on using the Origin sub VIs in your LabVIEW files.

Also, examples on accessing Origin from LabVIEW and other clients can be found under the subfolder:
\Samples\Automation Server
