Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5
Operating System: XP Prof

Hi to all,

is it possible to export special variables like "%g" with graph windows?

I have a graph window with a label, which contains variables like %G and %X and %H. In Origin the label is correct; but, if I choose copypage to import this window into Word, the value for %X is not visible and %G is changed to untitled.opj. %H remains correct.

Thank you for some hints

Holger

Hi Holger,

When you created this label, you had to check the "Link to variables (%,$)" checkbox in the Label control dialog. This allowed the value of %X and %G to be displayed instead of the literal "%X %G".

As you saw, when you copypage, the values of %X and %G are not saved. (We should most likely fix this in a future version.)

What you can do to get around the problem is to use the label command to add your label. You then don't need to have the "Link to variables (%,$)" checkbox checked.

Try the following:
label -s -sa -d (.6*page.width) (.05*page.height) -n filestamp \v(%X)\v(%G);

Note: The \v (verbatim) escape sequence overrides any escape sequences that are included in the text. This is particularly useful when displaying a path that includes a backslash '\' .
