[Gnuplot-info] question on date/time samples

[Dave D. <dd...@WI...>]

To Whom It May Concern:

 

I am working with Gnuplot 4.2 and have a datafile that contains first
column of date/time and then other columns of raw data. 

 

When I plot on dates from last week to current date the x-axis looks
great however when I plot from last year to current date too many dates
show up and I have tried different commands from xtic, autoscale to
others and no luck.  I do use xdata time, set timefmt "%Y-%m-%d.  

 

In my datafile I could have 100-200 dates or more over a course of a
year.  Is there a way dynamical show in the plot for the year with
limited dates showing up on the plot?

 

 

Thanks,

David Draper
