Is there a possibility to tell the axis labels to center at the axis? I cant find such an option. However, such an option would be really helpful to create good-looking graphs. Furthermore, an option to tell the label to be e.g. 5% away from the axis seems to be missing. Is there anything like this to format axis-labels that I couldnt find?

Maybe the two options on Custom Tick Labels tab fit you needs?

unfortunately not.

this options are just manupulating the "tick labels". I am talking about the text next to the graph that tells you what value you can see in the graph -- the axis label.

You can move it around manually but there does not seem to be an option to align it next to the graph...

So maybe you mean axis title?

Following post might help:

Yes, this post helps a little bit, thanks.

Somehow, the design templates do not really work very well but the object toolbar does most of the time.

Strange that there is no way to create a design where all the axis titles are aligned on the axis itsself.....

I have to correct myself.

I tried to get a design that I can apply so that all graphs look the same. I dont know if I am doing anything wrong or if the designs are just messed up completely by originLab but it is not possible for me to get graphs that all look the same for publication.
For some reason, the line width and font sizes are screwed up completely..

I cant believe that I am the only one having this problem with a programm that shall be used to get "publication-ready" graphs. I just want a feature where I can tell the graphs to all be the same size, with the same font sizes where all the axis labels are centered at the axis, 10pts away from it. Why is that so complicated?


Are there any known bugs in the system design or am I just doing something wrong?
