Origin Ver.8.0 Operating System:vista
Hi all, I wish to give 3 different background colors to 3 different sections of my graph layer. Is there any possibility to do it in Origin 8.0? thanks, Manesh |

Hi Manesh:
We don't support multiple background colors for a signal layer. So I think you can just make some "fake background" as a workaround.
1>. Draw rectangle objects manually.
Supposed your data is:
You can then draw Rectangle Object and set different fill color. Then push the objects back to data points.
The drawback is, you cannot control the section place exactly.
2>. Draw lines to "create" such sections.
For example, suppose you will plot your source in the range that X axis from 0.75 to 3.25, Y axis from 0.75 to 3.75. Make up some data as below:
Then plot the three lines, and Fill Color Under Curve in Plot Details dialog
Using this method, you may need to go to Plot Setup dialog to re-order the data plots to bring the original data in front.
There are still some other workarounds. You can play with Origin and figure out more.
Thanks Larry |

Hi Larry, thanks much, I have't noticed the option to send the rectangle tool back to the data. Thanks again, Manesh |
