Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5 SR6
Operating System: Win XP

Is there a way to offset some graphs in one layer by a certain amount, WITHOUT changing the actual values (as it happens via Analysis:Translate:Vertical) - just for viewing purposes?

Sorry, if it should be trivial - I didn't find anything in the help, however.

Thanks for your help!

Hi,
I have a roundabout way to gain your ends. Save your initial project. Change the actual values by Analysis:Translate:Vertical/Horizontal and view the result. Open the project you saved and get the initial dataset as well as graph.

Thanks

The XY offset effect of a waterfall graph can be post-plot applied to any 2D graph with some script. For example, given an active plot layer with multiple curves, execute this :

layer -y 0,50

to offset each curve by 50% of the Y scale.
Note that this applies to all curves in the layer and you may need to adjust the Y scale and or 'Clip Data to Frame' to show all the curves.

Hi Jan,

The latest version, Origin 8, provides variuos options for offset-plotting with multiple curves in a layer, including arbitrary offset for a particular curve - without chaning the data.

Here is a page from our online help file that displays the new Plot Details tab for controlling offsets:

You can try this new feature with your data by downloading the Origin 8 demo from this page:
