Create and plot a named range via virtual dataset 

ORG-3423 

Syntax: create name -nrs extract_rule [range_stringdesignationscope_range_string]

...

Code Block
//Plot a box chart from a block of cells
create myvsbox -nrs 1 "[Book1]Sheet1!1[2]:3[4]"; //Create a virtual dataset myvsbox from a block of cells
win -t p box; //Create a black graph window with box chart template
layer -i206 myvsbox;//Add virtual dataset myvsbox to the graph

 

LabTalk Callable OC function to Execute an Operation

(ORG-7877)

Click on the recalculate lock and select Show Info from the context menu to get the "operation_uid", then run execute_operation function.

...

Code Block
execute_operation(operation_uid);

Improve LabTalk "type -gb" command for text file output

(ORG-8306)

Code Block
type -gb [[e][f][r/n]] fileName;

...

New line is \r\n by default, n = use \n as new line, r = use \r as new line.  

Better error checking in LabTalk function

(ORG-9155)

In an OGS file, add the following script, and then run the main section, the error message will go to Message Log.

Code Block
[Main]
Function int aa(int nn)
{
	ty "inside function";
	sdf;//error
	return 1;
}

int nErr = aa(0);
ty "after function";

LT access to user color increment list

(ORG-8942)

LabTalk can now get or set in the same command area as set/get data plot colors. The syntax is:

...

Code Block
newbook;
col(A) = data(1,12);
col(B) = col(A);
plotxy (1,2);
set %c -ci 1;
set %c -cue 1;
set %c -cu 2 4 6 8;
dataset ds;
get %c -cu ds;

Labtalk Function to Generate Patterned Data

(ORG-7900)

  • To generate numeric data:

...

Code Block
col(B)=pattern(col(c), 2, 3); //data source, value repeat count, sequence repeat count
col(B)=uniform(30, col(A)); //randomly choose 30 elements from col(A) to fill col(B)

Range Notation Improvements

Support Variables for Row Subrange Notation

Code Block
int a = 1;
int b = 12;
range rr=col(1)[a:b];

Virtual Dataset for a Block of Cells

ORG-8226

Code Block
//Import a sample data into a new book
fname$=system.path.program$ + "\Samples\Matrix Conversion and Gridding\DirectXY.dat"; 
newbook;
impasc;
//Define the first row (from column B to E) as the first block
range -v r1=B[1]:E[1];
//Define the first column (from row 2 to 6) as the second block
range -v r2=A[2:6];
//Assign the values in the first block to the second block
r2=r1;

Support Variables for Row Subrange Notation

Code Block
int a = 1;
int b = 12;
range rr=col(1)[a:b];

Support Range Declaration for Local Loose Dataset

...

Code Block
dataset ds1,ds2; 
range rngld1=[??]!ds1;
range rngld2=[??]!ds2[10:15];  
range aa=1!1, bb=2[10:15];  //Given col(a)&col(b) is filled with row numbers: 
rngld1=aa;
rngld2=bb;

...

Code Block
range r1 = 1!; //First sheet in the activated workbook
range r2 = "1!"; //Column with long name "1!"

Substitution Notation Improvement 

(ORG-9221)

@option

Substitute Text From...

@LD"name"

The user-defined parameter with the specified name.

Layer (command) Supports Subrange

Code Block
range rr = wcol(2)[ 1:10 ];
win -t plot;
layer -i rr; // Plot rows 1 to 10

New System Variables

Function AreaVariableTypeDefaultSupportedDescription
Smart Labeling@SLDbool0 globally enable smart labeling of data label
@SLDFdouble [0.0, 1.0]favor count factor, missing value means auto
@SLDLbool0 look ahead
@SLDMdouble  measure constant variant, missing value means auto
@SLDRdouble  ray number, -1 means auto
@SLDGdouble  Smart Labeling reposition gap
Hidden Row@GMHbool0 
  • Value = 1:
    The behavior of Origin is the same as before
  • Value = 0:
    Origin will not get missing value from hidden rows, except for analysis and plotting
 @b3d0bool1 whether minus values needs down drawing
@b3d0bbool1 whether z=0 face shows black color
Polar Grid@DPA 3  % of DPI as a minimum distance between closest grids
 @CWSint13 Change Worksheet search option bits.
1 = Compare column short name
2 = Compare column long name
4 = Compare column designation
8 = Compare column index.
 @OGLSLbool1 

1 = Enable shearing for axis titles and tick labels if they are in axis plane and 3D cube has been sheared.

0 = Disable their shearing.

Text Filter

@TFSint10,1,2,3

Text Filter label display

0=Enter, 1=Space (default), 2=Comma, 3=Semicolon

@TFLdouble50 The max length of text filter label
 @AUFLbool  if it is non-zero, always set Auto as auto update mode; if @AUFL equals to zero, check whether there is an operation in the column, if there is, keep therecalculate mode, otherwise, set Auto as recalculate mode.

LT command to list number of DataRange 

(ORG-7522)

Running script "list rng;" takes quite a long time to finish the listing. The following command will output the number of DataRange directly.
