Origin 2018 b9.5.0.193
Operating System Windows 10

I have a a 2D plot with approx. 15 data series drawn with a Y offset (auto gap, a few %). For each of these data series I have an additional number corresponding to a relevant parameter, which I would like to draw in the same graph (it is connected to the X values of the data series, but it was measured with a different technique). Currently I have it added as a number at the end of each data series column with Y=0. If I plot the graph with the scatter option, all the points are where I want them to be visually, the problem is that I would like to connect the dots for the additional parameter with a line. Since these are one data point per different data series/column, I don't know how to do this.
I thought I could maybe input the values as a separate data series in a different layer, but I don't know what the Y values should be, since it depends on the offset in the original data/layer. Is there some elegant way of doing this?

Thanks!

Maybe you can use Pick Data to extract those data points and plot. See the gif below:

Thanks for the idea!
The "pick data points" option is unfortunately available in version 2018b, so I don't have it. But I did use the pickpts X-function option to get the job done!
