Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): v7.5776
Operating System:XP Prof
I have worksheets with more than 20000 lines.
With a line graph not all points can be seen at once on a screen.
I can zoom in to see individual points.
But I don't get any sliders to scroll through the graph (like on the worksheet).
What do I miss?
Thanks for help.

Hi,

You could do the following:
1> Click on the "Open Template" button on the Standard toolbar
2> Select Graphs (*.otp) from the Files of Type drop-down
3> Navigate to the Origin 7.5 EXE path and select the template file named Buttons.otp and click Open. You will now see a blank graph with many buttons
4> Plot your dataset into this graph. You can then use the buttons to scroll horizontal and vertical etc.

We are currently working on a toolbar that can be used on any graph (layer) rather than a graph such as above with buttons built into the template. We will post that solution on our File Exchange soon. Please check in a few days.

These buttons work.
But they are not as comfortable as a slider with the visual feedback (where you are on the axis and what zoom you are in).
Thanks

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the suggestion of slider. We will consider for a future version.

For now, we put up a tool that adds a new toolbar which will work with any graph layer (rather than using a fixed template which is the solution I posted earlier):

Hi Easwar
Thanks for that solution.
But I think the code should be changed from:
[ScrollLeft]
Scroll_Percent=Scroll_Percent==0/0?10:Scroll_Percent;
x1-=((x2-x1)*Scroll_Percent/100);
x2-=((x2-x1)*Scroll_Percent/100);
return 0;
to:
[ScrollLeft]
Scroll_Percent=Scroll_Percent==0/0?10:Scroll_Percent;
dx=x2-x1;
x1-=(dx*Scroll_Percent/100);
x2-=(dx*Scroll_Percent/100);
return 0;
Otherwise x1 has already a new value when you calculate x2.
How about a button to set Scroll_Percent?
With the above correction and Scroll_Percent=100% I can do what I wanted to.
Thanks again
Peter
