Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): Origin 7.0 Operating System: Windows XP Hi. Im having trouble for clipping data to the frame of a 3D Waterfall graph. After selecting Format:Layer and the Display tab, the Clip Data to Frame option appears shaded and I cannot click on it. So is the XY Clipping option in the Miscelaneous tab. What can I do to clip the data to the frame? Thanks.
As you noted, the Clip Data to Frame control is disabled for 3D Waterfall graphs. You really shouldn't need it. I am guessing that you might have created your waterfall plot, then changed the X axis scale range. That could cause your plots to extend beyond the end of the axis scale.
If that is what you did, I would suggest selecting just a range of your worksheet data or -- if your datasets are large and this seems impractical -- extracting the desired subset of your worksheet data to a second worksheet (Analysis:Extract Worksheet Data with the worksheet active), then replotting.
