Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): v8.0988 SR6 Operating System: Windows 7
Hello,
how do I get more than one set of maybe different x and errorbars? For example, I want to have three plots on one layer, all with different x and errorbars, or maybe with the same. I set the columns to xErr and yErr and so on, but the problem is: The errorbars appears only for one of the three plots. In "Layer content" all columns are on the right site.

Hi chostheorie,
Do you want to plot three curves in one graph, each with xErr and yErr? If true, you can plot them in one layer. You should have the data structure like this:
A(X) B(xEr) C(Y) D(yEr) E(X) F(xEr) G(Y) H(yEr) I(X) J(xEr) K(Y) L(yEr)
Then you can select Plot: Line+Symbol: Line+Symbol to plot the graph directly.

Thanks! That pattern also worked with six dot curves. Is there an easier way to assign the same x errorbars to all the six curves instead of copying them in the workbook? |

Hi chostheorie,
You can use Plot Setup dialog to simplify your work.
I supposed your data structure is like this:

You can plot multiple curves with x and y error bars in one graph following the steps:
1. Highlight the first four columns: A(X1), B(xEr), C(Y1), D(yEr), to plot the first curve.
2. Active the graph window, select Graph: Plot Setup from menu to open the Plot Setup dialog.
3. With the Layer1 selected in the lower panel and the current workbook selected in the upper panel, all the columns in the current worksheet are listed in the middle panel. Now you can select the corresponding columns in the middle panel for the second plot. For example, check col(E) in X column, col(B) in xEr, col(F) in Y, and col(G) in yEr. Then click Add button to add this plot in the lower panel. Click Apply button to add this plot in the graph.

4. Repeat the last step to add the third plot in the graph. |

Thanks, that worked best, because with the first method, one errorbar set was missing. |
