what does your data files look like? seems that there are no valid errorbar values starting from line '3' Noora wrote: > > Dear all, > > I am trying to plot a set of data from an experiment with xy errorbars. > However, whenever I try to do this and export the file to jpeg or png, I > can see the vertical and horizontal error bars on the first two data > points only(see image).

I would be very grateful if you could give me a hint. It's for a chemistry project and I really would like to make my graphs with gnuplot. Thank you!

sorry to clutter everyone's inbox, but here's the .txt file, which contains the first set of my data uploaded http://www.nabble.com/file/p26061524/pH1.txt pH1.txt The columns for the error bars are the sixth and seventh column. In addition, I am unable to access the gnuplot help, because my system will not allow it, so please forgive me if I'm asking something that is thoroughly covered in the help section. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Help-with-xyerrorbars-tp26051683p26061524.html Sent from the Gnuplot - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. |

this can not work, because in gnuplot the contents of one record in the file are separated by whitespace (=one or more blanks or tabs) this means starting from the 3rd record your data file contains only 5 values per record: <pre> 0.046 4.74 0.0901 0.45 0 0.01 0.01 0.086 4.74 0.0762 0 0.225 0.05 0.001 0.129 4.74 0.0586 0.002 0.001 0.146 4.74 0.0511 0.05 0.001 </pre> set datafile missing "?" and produce a new data file with this missing character at the place of a missing values: <pre> 0.046 4.74 0.0901 0.45 0 0.01 0.01 0.086 4.74 0.0762 0 0.225 0.05 0.001 0.129 4.74 0.0586 ? ? 0.002 0.001 0.146 4.74 0.0511 ? ? 0.05 0.001 </pre> or, set datafile separator "\t" this should work because the values in your file are separated by tab characters.
