Good morning,

I am hiding the label of the y-axis via layer.y.showLabels=0 and it is perfectly working. However, if I add a second layer as y2, I am not able to hide the label of y2. The same command with y2 does not work. What is the problem and how can I solve it?




Origin Ver.9.6.0.172; Operating System: Win 10 Enterprise

Hi,

layer.property notation is used to access the active’s layer’s properties.
If you want to access other layers’ properties, you can define a layer range first like:
range layer2nd = [Graph1]2!
Layer2nd.y.showLabels=0

Hope it helps.

Regards, Yuki

Hi Yuki,

your recommendation works, if the plot is already existing. However, I'd like to include both layers in a new plot right from the data set. This means I do not know the name of the plot as it is not existing yet.
I am using following code:

plotxy iy:=(1,2) plot:=200;
layer.y.showLabels=0;
layer -n Y;

For the second layer the command showLabels=0 does not work and the graph does not have a name yet.

There are two ways to act on another layer that is not active

1. use layer -o command, like 

layer -o 2 {layer.y.showlabels=0;};


2. In Yuki's example, you can skip the window name if you are operating on the active window, so 

range layer2nd = 2!;
Layer2nd.y.showLabels=0;

Hi cpyang,

What about the third one:
layer2.y.showLabels=0;

?

Hi Lou325,

the third way works properly - I tried it with three different versions of Origin before I suggested it.


BR,

Alex
