I am dooing railway catenary monitoring. This will leed to long plots, e.g. a distance (x-axis) of 100 km will leed to 200 plots. It would be nice to have plot titels (e.g. station names) depending on the x-axis actually displayed (or plotted). Is there a way to do this?

By the way I discoverd that Bitmaps reduce in size every time the plot is scrolled to the next seection, although their size is fixed! So after 200 pages they look pretty small!

Thanks, Peter

Hi Peter,

I'm not sure what you mean but you can edit/show the plot label with Window>Rename, which brings up a dialog like this...



The following script does the same thing without the dialog...

page.label$="Station name";
page.title=3;

Using the station name as the graph name (Graph1) might not work because of restrictions on the number and type of characters in a window name.

If you're using the Scroll and Zoom Toolbar then the scrolling region does change with each scroll. You can fix by downloading the script file discussed here. (The NMR tool comments are irrelevant and can be ignored.) If that's not what you're talking about please elaborate.
