DPlot

David,
Hate to see the change, but I understand. I think I retired about the same time as you did, so I only use the software occasionally. But I did leave behind some younger engineers who got hoo ...

I think I have had similar situations, Win7x64, even w 8gb memory, and several large plots open. I would try to save carefully, and if I "got lost" because I wasn't sure what plot that I wa ...

David,

Ignore above. First step in trouble shooting is to not load some of my "TSR" utilities, esp. AltMove Manager, WizMouse, and CrossHair - anything that has to do with the mouse.

David,

Thanks. That works, but I have to tell you that lately every time I touch DPlot, I get a new glitch. After I copied the truncated curves back to my original plot, I next did a "Find I ...

Okay, there is a "Split at Y" in the generate menu. Is there an easy way to split a curve at an "X" position. I'm rusty - maybe I forgot a method that I should remember, but I'm ...

Nope, can't do that - I want to delete points that are some distance apart. It would help if I could adjust the scan "rate" like you can do in the "Scan Data" dialog.

Or better ...

David, I'm using Edit Mode on a large gps trace to clean up some spikes in the data. Edit Mode is great, and I remembered the "Delete" button (!), but is there a way to do more than one poi ...

Yes, I've been called stubborn before - half Italian and half German - I can be stubborn with a passion!

I was just trying to understand why a curve cut off in the middle of my plot - was my fault ...

I think I found a DPlot limit - it's not liking 11 curves with 5,320,130 points each!

And while investigating why a curve just seemed to "stop" 1/2 of the way through the time scale, when ...

Yes, I just noticed this as well, wondering if I changed some setting someplace.

David, regardless of the Excel 2013 append-fix status, are you planning on a bug fix release in the near future? We ...

I may have asked about this before, but will try again if I haven't.

In the status line, you now show X, Y, and Y2 if there is a Y2 axis defined.

How about showing X2 if there is an X2 axis defi ...

Still would like this capability if at all possible! (ie, intersection of a real curve with a reference line, with any added points being added to the real curve.)

Thanks.
Jon

I think the command in a macro is:

Title1("$FILETITLE")

Which should assign the filename to the first line of the title block area.

Thanks, but runsum is not quite ready for prime time! (Definitely needs to be able to select a curve(s), and the generated curves are not labeled.) Guess I'll stick with what I'm doing. I have 4 or ...

You must mean "Integrate a Curve". (There's no other "running total" command in 2.3.5.3??) Yes, I saw that, but didn't try it because I thought it acted "odd" the last ...

David, I'd still like to do something like SUM("insert function") and not waste a curve. Or have more than 1-9 to work with for the number of curves. Something like 0-9 plus "A-F" ...

David, in the label points dialog, there is a checkbox to "copy the above options to all existing labels". Seems like this refers to only the Frame, Vertical, Opaque, Mouse-activated, and c ...

Using Bar Chart (Label, Y1, Y2,...) from Excel 2007 I get what DWW describes, ie, the X-axis labels are set one set to the right. The label "Umbria" does not show on the plotted data - it's ...

And even when you force a reference line by temporarily changing the axis from a time to a number format, if you change the x-axis back to a time scale, you can't edit the position of the reference li ...

David- sorry for dredging up an old topic...

Have you given any more thought to increasing the number of curves available for equations/functions from the first 9 to more than 9? 15-20 would be gr ...

Not as expert with DPlot as I'd like to be, but unless David has some "trick" like multiplying the curves on Y2 by -1 (??), I'd say there is no way. Looks like the check box in Extents chan ...

Looks like checking "Step Placement > Backward" will do the trick.

Another thought about this function. (They're coming harder and harder...thoughts, that is.)

Any chance of showing the x-position in the lower left status area before you click the first marker? ...

Roberto,

I just tried the step plot - yes it does seem to do what you want - change the extents to + and - values of what your data limits are (ie, -1 and +2_ - everything is "connected". ...

Roberto,

Completely wrong impression of DPlot. DPlot plots the true X-Y data point, regardless of regular spacing or not. If you know the concept of line graphs vs. xy plots in Excel, then you sh ...

I didn't get a message about memory being exceeded, but I just tried allocating memory for another curve, and this time it worked, ie, Replace input was unchecked, so a new curve was added on top of t ...

David, in 2.3.4.5, with this new function for averaging duplicate x's, if I DON'T check "Replace input", am I supposed to get a new curve? I've got a large dataset, the curve I'm working wi ...

I was thinking of doing that, and after I did, I got a bar chart that I don't quite know what's going on. Aside from my inability to fully comprehend the bar width and group width relationship, the b ...

I just pasted a 1-D list of dates representing a failed part's build week into a blank window in DPlot. A date for every failed part. Then I asked DPlot to do a histogram with a 7 day interval. I g ...

Guess I spoke too soon about "nothing happened". Data looked like it had multiple y's for x's, but it did not. Data was just packed tighter than I thought. I made up a test curve and inse ...
