After plotting Contour Profile, if user delete data, or change some data values, the profiles failed to update before Origin 2017 SR1

Note: This update only works with Image/Contour Profile tool on.

If you have closed Contour Profile tool so only Profile... button shows in graph, change in data will not update profiles.

E.g. if X value (position of columns is e.g. 1e6, .... ) and on Spacing tab of Plot Details, set column bar width to be based on 3rd column with big values. Set Scaling Factor to 0 (Use X Unit).

The column bars becomes narrow lines.

This is because in Origin 2017 Sr0, we made a change is to make plot auto updated when source linked data was change,

but it also make workbook cell data auto update when link source changed, which is fine, but the checking for workbook

will slow down Origin heavily, especially for user's opj.

So in Origin 2017 SR1, a new system variable is added to control this behavior: @RSL.

It combines with 2 bits: 1 for graph, 2 for workbook. Default is 1. Set as 0 can rollback to same as Origin 2016.

Add some text label in Origin 2016 or earlier by the following code.

xpos_string=0.424;
label -s -a xpos_string 80 -j 0 -n TEST3 TESTLabel;
TEST3.rotate = 270;
TEST3.X=;

Open it in Origin 2017 Sr0. The text position changed.

This is because we added we include frame when deciding where the text label anchor point is in Origin 2017 Sr0.

In Origin 2017 SR1, system variable @TCC is added and set to 0 so Anchor on Frame is off.

This way text object created in Origin 2016 or older will not change position.

E.g. Plot an area graph and on line tab, set line width to 0. Line still showed.

This is newly broken in Origin 2017 Sr0. Fixed in Origin 2017 SR1.

This also exists in line plot, fill area, and stacked area plot, etc.

This was a limitation since the pattern above and below feature was introduced in Origin 9.1.

We only allowed monotonic data. Removed the limitation in Origin 2017 SR1.

1. New a matrix with 2 objects, set dimension as 1024 * 1024.
2. Set value in Mat(1) by script "matrix -v i;", Mat(2) by "matrix -v j;".
3. Active Mat(1), make a 3D Colormap Surface plot.
4. Open PD dialog, active Fill tab, choose Fill piece by piece: Map: Mat(2).
5. Click Apply.
==> Origin crashes.

Note: This problem exists since 92Sr0. Fixed in Origin 2017 SR1.

When deleting some data, all 3D bars became very thin and only gray lines show.

This existed since Origin 9.0 and fixed in Origin 2017 SR1.

New System Variable is added. @OGLBWF, XYZ Bar width calculation factor, default value is 2, 

if gridding result >= factor * datasize, we will reset to default size (sqrt(datasize) or datasize if too small).

Origin can't add two data labels to one plot. E.g. User as column A(X), B(Y) and other column C for label.

If user wants to show both Y values and column C labels in the graph, user has to plot the B data twice.

And for each plot, enable Labels, with one label from column C and one label from Y value.

Sometimes the data labels overlap so user may need to adjust position of certain label.

E.g. Ctrl+select a data label to select it and move it. Before Origin 2017 SR1, the other label of the same data point were moved as well.

User can customize contour plot to hide color fill and only show colormapped line by

1. Double click the plot.
2. In the plot detail. Under Colormap/Contour tab, uncheck Color Fill. 
3. Click the Line column header, check Link Line to Colormap Color

Before Origin 2017 SR1, color scaler failed to show for such graph.

The length of grids and axis ticks seem to get shorter on the screen and in exported image in Origin 2017.

Before Origin 2017, axis line has rounded-end. If the line thickness is big, it doesn't look good. Therefore in Origin 2017 Sr0,

we added square-ended support and set it as default. Corresponding system variable @lca=2. ORG-11202)

Because of this change, the grids and axis ticks seem to get shorter on the screen and in exported image.

Fixed in Origin 2017 Sr1 by changing the length of line segment especially in dash automatically.

Deleting a Plot From Graph with text object as legend causes crash in Origin 9.4

New issue in Origin 2017 Sr0.

1. In a graph with grouped plot, press Ctrl key and drag the legend to be multiple columns
2. Copy the legend and paste it to have a new text object
3. Hide the first plot from the Plot Details dialog, or Object Manager

==> Origin crashes.

Annotation position control is added in Origin 2017 sr0. But the Offset values of annotation position failed to be saved as default for future use.
