Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 8.1 SR3
Operating System: Win 7, 64 bit

Hi,

When I try to plot contour plots with log scale enabled I cannot control number of levels to use. In previous versions it was possible to set how many levels I can use for different colors but in this version it is grayed out. Also if I use max/min numbers say between 0.00001 and 1, it always sets the scale as 1, 0.1, 0.01, etc. So it is impossible to customize the scale bins to other values.

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

We changed the controls in 8.x so that the color scale assignment follows a log scale setting. See pictures below for same data from 7.5 versus 8.x.

In 8.x you can control total number of levels by specifying the Minor Levels setting, so you can see I set that to 5 to get the 25 levels, same number as 7.5 but distributed as a log scale now.

If this does not work for you, please send your opj to tech support and refer to this item.
