I need to plot some data that is divided in three sections so in the first one the space between points is smaller than in the second and third section. I been looking on how to create a non-linear x axis so that the axis will show lets say from 0-20 then from 20-100 and then from 100-500. And of course the data will look accordingly to the scale. I try this (http://qhwiki.originlab.com/~originla/howto/index.php?title=QuickHelp:How_do_I_add_a_second_nonlinear_x_or_y_axis_to_my_graph_layer) the last option and I get the axis to change but the data points didnt adjust to the new axis.
Any help will be more than welcome! thanks

You can add two Bottom-X Right-Y Layers. And select Graph: Layer Management from Origin menu. In the Size/Position tab, move the second and third layers to right, make the second layer's left edge located at the first layer's right edge, the third is located on the right of the second. Then plot three sections of data into three layers. Set the same scale for Y axes of three layers. Hide Y axes of second and third layers. Now you can adjust scales of three X axes as you want.
