ORG-29592

Icon improvements on left panel of Plot Details dialog

Much easier to tell a plot is a single plot or belongs to a group

In the past, when open a complicated graph to customize plot, it’s hard to tell if a plot is a single plot, or belongs to a group. For grouped plot, some Tabs only show when 1st member in the group is selected.

In Origin 2025, a single plot is denoted by image-20240823-142637.png, a plot blonging to a group is denoted by alternatingimage-20240823-142656.pngimage-20240823-142923.pngicons

Grouping plots gets easier

Group nonadjacent plots and create multi-groups

Change of behavior and context menus changes in Object Manager to make it easier to group plots in a layer

  1. New behavior of Set as Group Begin and Set as Group End: Right click a member in a group of plot and choose Set as Group Begin or Set as Group End will break the current group into two groups. In the past, plots before Set as Group Begin or after Set as Group End would become isolated single plots.

  2. New Move as a New Group context menu: Select adjacent or non-adjacent plots in a group to move them into a new group. In the past, many steps were needed.

  3. Group non-adjacent single plots: For isolated single plots, no matter same plot type or not, ctrl+ select them, right click and choose Group to make a new group with 1st plot’s plot type.

Data Filter For Graph

Graph based Data Filter without affecting worksheet

Click Data Filter toolbar button or Data Slicer mini toolbar to filter data on graph only

image-20240730-154029.pngImage Removed

  • Click Filter to change filter condition; right click on a condition for more options including moving the condition orders, deleting the filter, etc.; right click in blank area below existing filters to add more filter conditions.

    image-20240730-182529.pngImage Removed

    • Related LabTalk Access (may be outdated)

  • Command to convert graph with worksheet data filter to use graph based filter and take over the filters on worksheet

    Code Block
    languagecpp
    page -df; //convert to SDF
//data filter still shows in source worksheet and row is hidden

page -df 1;//convert to SDF and remove filter from source worksheet
//no data filter in source worksheet and no row is hidden

    Similar to page -df, you can also try below command

    Code Block
    int nUID = layer.plot1.DF();
nUID=;

  • To see datasets used in the dataplot, try below command

    Code Block
    list pl;

  • To show Graph Data Slicer pane, run below script

    Code Block
    page.cp.type = 5;

  • New LabTalk Object SDF is implemented to access the graph based filter used for the plot, says Shared Data Filters object.

    Code Block
    languagecpp
    //Suppose active graph plotting with graph based filter
int nUID = layer.plot1.SDF;
SDF ff = nUID;
ff.wks$ =;//read-only, worksheet range, "[book2]sheet1"
ff.enable =;//to allow temp disable
ff.nf =;//read-only,number of columns to have filter
ff.f1.col =;//first filter on which col
ff.f1.filter$ =;//query string
ff.f1.filterx$ =;//the x variable used inside the filter
ff.Set(D:3:"between(18,23)");//replace col(D) filter if already existed

  • To retrieves the state of data filters in the active graph, use command

    Code Block
    languagecpp
    page -dfs nn;
//nn = 0: no data filters detected
//nn = 1: data filter present in at least one worksheet providing the data for at least one dataplot in the graph
//nn = 2: shared data filter used by at least one dataplot in the graph
//nn = -1: error

    or method

    Code Block
    nn = page.GetDF(str$);
//str$ is a string variable to receive the worksheet range

  • When no data filter is used by any of dataplots, either as worksheet data filter or as a ShDF (execute the above command page -dfs nn; it must return 0), run below command to add a graph based filter.

    Code Block
    page -dfn ColNameOrNumber;

  • Create Shared Data Filters (ShDF)) from Worksheet

    • Define/Modify a Shared Data Filter from active worksheet

      Code Block
      languagecpp
      worksheet -shdf uidShDF [[colname:filtertype:filtercondition]]
//uidShDF is the name of the LabTalk variable which will receive the UID of the created ShDF

    • Create virtual datasets using existing ShDF

      Code Block
      create name -vsshdf worksheetrange uidShDF;

    • Example

      Code Block
      fname$ = System.path.program$ + "Samples\Statistics\automobile.dat";
newbook;
impASC;
worksheet -shdf uidShDF [[D:3:"between(16,23)"]];
create myshdfvsy -vsshdf col(F) uidShDF;
plotxy iy:=(C,myshdfvsy) plot:=202;

    • Command to dump Shared Data Filters in worksheet

    Code Block

    Add data slicer to graph to filter data

    Three ways to add data slicer on graph. Slicer is on graph so source worksheet will not be filtered.

    • Data: Slicer… menu

    • Click the old Data Filter button. //button in pressed stage if there is filter on graph. Click it again will remove all filters in graph. Ctrl+Z to undo.

    • Click the Data Slicer button on page level mini toolbar

    Easy way to change all plot’s X data in a layer or whole page

    Change X context menu on Layer and Page level

    Right click in blank area within layer and choose Change X to change all plot’s X to be certain column.

    Right click outside all layer frames and right click to change all plots in all layers' X to be certain column.

    Note: There was only Change X context menu on when right clicking on a plot. User would have to click each plot to change the X data or go to Plot Setup dialog to change so. It’s cumbersome.

    3 List orders in Batch Plotting Dialog

    More ways to sort available books and sheets in Batch Plotting dialog

    There was no sorting order option in Batch Plotting dialog.

    Before Origin 2024b, books show in creation order and sheets show in appearance order. In Origin 2024b, both books and sheets show in alphabetic order.

    In Origin 2025, 3 sorting modes are added. Click the column header to toggle them.

    • Unsorted (default, old behavior before Origin 2024b)

    • Sort ascending (default in Origin 2024b)

    • Sort descending (similar sorting criteria as above type 2, but descending).

    Note: Sheets in same book as source graph always show on top.

    Histogram Auto Binning improvement for arithmetic sequences

    Histogram Auto Binning improvement for arithmetic sequences

    When count(unique(input))<=10, we can sort the unique(input) and check if they are arithmetic sequences. In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same. If they are arithmetic sequences, assume the difference between consecutive terms is delta, bin size=delta, bin begin should be min-delta/2, bin end is max+delta/2.

    Implemented in Origin2025.

    ORG-16510

    Smartly adjust ticks when zoom in the graph

    Improve the rule of showing ticks to show better ticks values when zooming in

    In Origin2025 before, improve the below case that sometimes too few ticks sometimes too many ticks

    1. Zoom in graph with hotkey/red dot

    2. Apply scale of ROI in image to graph
