Origin Ver. and Service Release v8.0
Operating System: xp pro

Hi

I'm trying to use dotool 4 to select a range of data from a graph with multiple datasets. i.e.x=time, y1= sweep1, y2 = sweep2.... y15=sweep15.

the following script works just fine in 8.0 if there is only one dataset. The simple script allowed me to return the MKS1 and MKS2 variables in origin 7 with multiple datasets, but not in origin 8.0.

i just need the script to return the MKS1 and MKS2 variables. Can you tell me what I'm doiing wrong?

here is my script

count=1;
dotool 4;
def pointproc {
count++;
if (count==2)
{dotool 0;
run.section(activation.ogs,next);}

else
{dotool -next;};
;
};

[next]
more srcipt here


thanks for your help

Hi Mark,

It is a bug, we will try to fix it in the future version. Sorry for that.

I thought it might be a bug....

I've tried a workaround using dotool 3 (data reader) but I can't figure out how to return the index of the row from the X datapoint using this tool...

I need the index of the data point (=MKS1, MKS2) to pass to the LIMIT utility.

does anybody know how to return the index of a datpoint using the dotool 3 tool?

thanks
Mark

Hi Mark,

If using dotool 3, please refer to the following example on how to get the indices of the selected data point.

@global = 1;
dataset dsIndex;
dotool 3;
count = 1;
def pointproc
{
	dsIndex[count] = index;
	count++;
	if(count==3)
		dotool 0;
};
def quittoolbox
{
	if(count<2)
		type -b please select two points!;
	else
	{
		type indices of two points are:;
		dsIndex[1] = ;
		dsIndex[2] = ;
	}
};
