Hi, I'm using gnuplot (wgnuplot.exe) V4.1 on Windows7 Simple question - I use gnuplot to display basic data files, (e.g plot "1.txt" with lines), each time I type plot or splot, gnuplot generates the resulting graph in a separate window, however it always re-uses the same window, discarding any previous content. I really really really really want to display each graph in a NEW window, so if I enter ten plot commands I want to end up with ten graphs each in its own window. I'm not bothered about interacting with the plots (like zoom, rescaling etc), I just want to see more than one graph on the screen at the same time. Currently the only way I can figure do this is by running multiple copies of gnuplot (i.e. one per graph), but this doesn't work well when you need lots of graphs at the same time. Seems like such a simple thing I feel really stupid not being able to figure it out...... all suggestions welcome Thanks, Sam |

Hello Please use gnuplot 4.4 or later and use wxt terminal. You can use multiple windows set term wxt 0 plot sin(x) set term wxt 1 plot cos(x) For gnuplot 4.6 (rc1), you can use multiple windows in windows terminal Regards Tatsuro --- On Wed, 2012/1/25, Sam Kingsbury wrote: > Hi, > > > > I'm using gnuplot (wgnuplot.exe) V4.1 on Windows7 > > > > Simple question - I use gnuplot to display basic data files, (e.g plot > "1.txt" with lines), each time I type plot or splot, gnuplot generates > the resulting graph in a separate window, however it always re-uses the > same window, discarding any previous content. > > > > I really really really really want to display each graph in a NEW > window, so if I enter ten plot commands I want to end up with ten graphs > each in its own window. > > I'm not bothered about interacting with the plots (like zoom, rescaling > etc), I just want to see more than one graph on the screen at the same > time. > > Currently the only way I can figure do this is by running multiple > copies of gnuplot (i.e. one per graph), but this doesn't work well when > you need lots of graphs at the same time. > > > > Seems like such a simple thing I feel really stupid not being able to > figure it out...... all suggestions welcome > > > > Thanks, Sam > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow! > The most comprehensive online learning library for Microsoft developers > is just $99.99!

Hi Tatsuro, Thank you for your help - I am a cygwin user so I tried your suggestion. I downloaded the gnuplot for cygwin binaries from your site (http://www.tatsuromatsuoka.com/gnuplot/Eng/cygbin/) and followed the instructions: 1. I updated my cygwin to include libedit and libgd-2, I am running this version of cygwin: $ uname -a CYGWIN_NT-6.1 PC-278 1.7.9(0.237/5/3) 2011-03-29 10:10 i686 Cygwin 2. I installed the cygwin X-server (www.cygwin.com/xfree), this version: Package: version 1.11.3-1 built 2011-12-21 3. Unzipped your usr_local.zip into the cygwin directory 4. Run X-Server 5. Set DISPLAY 6. Run gnuplot All OK to this point, but when I enter a command (any command) to your build of gnuplot it segmentation faults. I removed your version of gnuplot and then tried downloading the latest version of gnuplot from the cygwin repository and this version works fine. It does not recognise the "set term wxt" command, but it does allow "set term X11" with a window number parameter as you suggested. My only quibble now is that I have to tell gnuplot which window to use every time I plot, it would be a lot easier if there was a setting to automatically display every plot in a new window. Thanks again Regards, Sam -----Original Message----- From: Tatsuro MATSUOKA [mailto:tma...@ya...] Sent: 24 January 2012 22:01 To: gnu...@li...; Sam Kingsbury Subject: Re: [Gnuplot-info] how to plot in new window?

Hello Hmm,. For my environments gnuplot for cygwin build by mself works. As a reference, please give me the information of version of the OS and the CPU. Anyway it is nice you to find the solution.

Hi Tatsuro, I'm using Windows 7 Professional with Service Pack 1 (32 bit) Intel Core i7-860 CPU (Dell Precision T1500) Does your build of gnuplot have many differences to the normal cygwin version? What are the advantages of using your "wxt" terminal instead of the standard X11 terminal type?

Hello The wxt terminal in not included cygwin binary but to the native windows binary. The advantage of wxt terminal, for example, transparency,anti-aliasing of the line plot, language support through the fontconfig, etcs. Now the wxt terminal is default terminal for many platforms. Unfortunately the cygwin does not have the Wxwidgets so that cygwin binary lacks it.

You can do this with multiplot. Take a look at "help multiplot" and the multiplot demos at http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/demo_4.2/layout.html. Just remember to "unset multiplot" to get out of multiplot mode when you're done. |

I have a client who needs something along the lines of an airline flight paths chart. An example is here: http://www.market-research-services.com/starpowermedia/for_distribution/usa-flightpaths750.jpg Can gnuplot do anything along these lines? Thanks very much in advance to all for any info! |
