[Gnuplot-info] Question about clustered histograms

[Brian O. <bos...@ve...>]

Plotters,

The plotting is just not working, though I think I'm following the example code in the manual (page 51).

Here's the script:

set terminal png 
set output 'histograms.png'
set style fill solid 1.00 border lt -1
set style data histograms
set style histogram clustered gap 2
set xtics border rotate by -45
plot for [COL=2:3] 'tmp_data_file' using COL:xticlabels(1)

And my data looks like this:

e-02	2	4
e-03	11	33
e-04	33	2

The clusters of bars and X labels are made correctly but lines like:

'tmp_data_file' using COL:xticlabels(1)

are inserted at the top of the image, where the keys should be.

If I use "[COL=2:3:2]" instead then only a single bar is created, rather than a cluster of 2 bars.

What am I doing incorrectly?

Thank you,

Brian O.
