Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5
Operating System: WIN2000

Hi there,

I would like to use the Analysis -> Translate -> Vertical command but I need the translation to be multiplied by a constant as opposed to added by a constant. I realize I can use simple math, but for me, it would be so much easier to use the Translate feature.

Anyway I can modify this routine or create some kind of script? My data happens to be plotted on a log scale and translating by the addition of a constant changes the "shape" of the curve. I just want to be able to move the curve around for display purposes as the y values are arbitrary.

Thanks!

Hi Nathan,

Run this script from the Custom Routine button or a user-defined button...

def EndToolbox
{
y_last=y;;
def EndToolbox {y/y_last;undo %C;%C * y;};
GetPts -Y 1 (Move cursor to new location, hit ENTER)
};
GetPts 1 $EXEmessage.Pick1Pt;

Hello! This is fantastic. However, after you translate the curves, is there any way to see by how much they have been translated? Thank you!
