Seems pretty straightforward especially if the automatic bins work for you.
When adjusting the space between graphs I run into the following problem: if the space between adjacent graphs (more specifically, the 'internal margin' property of the grid) is 1.0 cm or less, both the tick labels and the axis label (ie axis title) of the 'touching.
one problem I have in Excel is that if I want to compare histograms of data series with different ranges, it's a pain to get the x-axis values to align.) Each graph has a 'normal' (left) Y axis and a secondary Y axis on the right. Setting bar1 Positions to ages_pract_binpos got the actual values into the x-axis. (Could also "Insert"/"Add bar" from the menus.)įor bar1 Lengths, I selected ages_binheight and got a histogram, but with each bar numbered 1-20 on the x-axis. I still had the default page1/graph1 so I added a bar1 to that by clicking the bar chart icon from the toolbar. I clicked "Apply" and saw that the two new datasets were created they have Size=20 and Type=Histogram. My data had 227 observations, so I decided to up the "Automatic bin parameters" / "Number of bins" to 20. Similarly for "Output bin position dataset name" I typed "ages_binpos". Mine was named "ages".įor "Output bin height dataset name" you can enter any legal dataset name. Then use the Data/Histogram menu to open the "Histogram data" tool/dialog.įor "Input dataset expression" click the arrow to select your data that you want to plot. The widget can also be linked to a different axis via the function. Several backends are supported: Gnuplot, Matplotlib, Grace (Xmgr), Veusz. The axis-function widget allows the user to create an axis where the values are scaled by a monotonic function, allowing non-linear and non-logarithmic axis scales. I'm a bit puzzled because it seems that there is no. I am plotting data sets that I created based on two others that were imported from a text file. It is an axis type where there are jumps in the scale of the axis. I made several plots for an article I am writing and for some reason, some of the plots have an y-axis 'european' style (0,08) while other plots have an y-axis the in 'American' style (0.08). Items can be accessed using the V shortcut object and the autocomplete features of your prefered IDE. The axis-broken widget is an axis sub-type. The Veusz API should be accassible through a single import of de.dreambeam.veusz.
How to use the API Quick Access to Veusz-Items. You need to first have your data that you want to plot as a histogram loading into Veusz. This will result in the following Veusz project: For further examples see scalaveusz-examples. You surely have already after 5mo, but what the heck. I found this thread while searching for an explanation myself, but I think I figured it out.
