Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 8
Operating System:win xp
Hi there
I want to create a graph with many x columns for one y column in a work****. I can create a graph with many y columns and one x column but I can't do the reverse. For example I Put in the first column some values and set them as y and then enter other columns beside the y column with different values and set them as x1, x2, x3 and so on. When I press the plot button it apears a message that says "your column selection must include associated plot designations.See help for more information".What can I do? Please help
thank you in regards

Hello Kostas T,
make your first plot the way you did up to now. Now add a new layer in this graph and link it 1:1 for the y-axis. Now you can manipulate the second (and subsequent) x-axis the way you like... |

| Hello, I am new to this forum, I have the latest Origin pro Student version (2016). I have the same problem when trying to have one Y and multiple Xs. What is weirder, the graphs look OK if I plot designate what should be Y axis values with X and the multiple Xs as Ys. However, if I try to label these, the label for the Y axis (aka what is now plot designed as X) appears as label of the Y on the graph, which I want, but also as one of the labels in the legend for the Xs in the legend box. Additionally, I cannot copy and paste columns from one work sheet into another, like the old version (Origin 7 or so) will allow it. This is highly inconvenient, and really for the amount of money we pay, not worth it. |
