Origin 2017 Graphing Miscellaneous
Plotting Customization
JIRA | SUMMARY | DETAILS |
|---|---|---|
Better color scheme for graph system theme | We have used our default black, red, blue, green color scheme for many versions. Some users felt the default are not good. A new system theme Candy Colors & Light Grids is created so when plotting common 2D graphs, e.g. line, scatter, line+symbol, column/bar, box chart, etc. the new color scheme will be used. Note: All 3D graphs and some 2d graphs don't allow system theme to override so when plotting those, it will still use the old color scheme and color palette. | |
ORG-14593 | Map symbol size to an expression of a column | Sometimes the values in Size Column are very similar and user can't see the size difference. E.g. all are big values, etc. With Size formula, user can specify some math expression based on values in Size column. |
ORG-13699 | Control how each plot attributes increment in subgroups of a group plot | |
ORG-14444 S1 | Dropline Direction Control in 2D and 3D graphs |
|
ORG-14518 | Provide none color for border line | Add option to select none color for border line |
Adjust sub-group spacing between subgroups of stacked column plot | ||
ORG-14396 | Hide left symbol part in Legend via context menu | |
Histogram Plot with Bin Counts or Percentage as Labels | Label tab is added in Plot Details dialog turn show Count, Percentage of both for Histogram plot. | |
ORG-14280 | Statistical bar support for Box Chart | Box chart can be plotted as statistical bars + data. See Box tab in Plot Details dialog.
In plot_gboxindexed dialog, add a Graph Theme: Box_Mean Bar with SE with setting as Type = Bar + Data Overlap, Bar Represent = Mean and Error Bar Range = SE. |
ORG-10621 | Support hatching in contour plots for geologists, geophysicists, civil engineers and more fill patterns are added | In Plot Details dialog, Geology fill patterns are added in GUI as well as more normal patterns. Users are able to customize different hatching in contour plots, pie charts or area plots. |
ORG-14620 S2, S3 | GUI for new patterns | User can ship his own patterns to specified folder of User Files Folder, then the patterns will be shown at the end of the build-in pattern list. Two system values are added to control offset factor - @PGXOF: Pattern Geology Scale X Offset Factor(Multiple factor), @PGYOF: Pattern Geology Scale Y Offset Factor(Multiple factor) |
ORG-14903, | Connect mean points, data points or other percentiles |
|
Add AutoX as a fly-out option for Input:X in Plotting dialog | For some plot types, Origin will open a dialog first for user to specify input and settings before plot is made. E.g. Trellis Plot, Stacked Plot, Grouped Column Plot - Index Data, etc. In Input node, user can specify X to be <autoX> if user wants to plot against row indexing | |
ORG-13552 | Allow users to change the line color for Line Series plot | Improve Line Series plot to allow users to change the line color. |
ORG-12765 | Support Error Bars with Fill Area in Polar Chart | |
ORG-13835 | Support color mapping for inclusive broken option | Fill Area now works for both inclusive and exclusive broken if have modifier. |
ORG-14760 | Improvements for Box plots customization. | Improve auto coloring for lines inside box so that it will be shown as contract to the box fill color. Two new system variables are introduced: @BAC: (default 1) works just like @DLC @BACM: (default 1) to control the behavior of auto Add an option to adjust the length of box chart line. |
Layer/Page Customization
JIRA | SUMMARY | DETAILS |
|---|---|---|
Easier way to push change layer drawing orders.
| ||
ORG-13470 | Exchange XY of Linked Layers together | In the past, if user has linked layers, such as Double Y, Multi-Y, multi-panel graphs, etc., when click Graph: Exchange X-Y Axes, it only changes current layer's X-Y axes. They are exchanged together now. |
ORG-13834 | Support Fill to Grid Lines in Polar Contour | The default color fill setting for Polar Contour by Matrix is Fill to Contour Lines. Additional option is added as Fill to Grid Lines in Colomap/Contours tab . |
