[It would have been more helpful to keep the explanation in the mail body, and only the data file in the attachment.] The root of this problem is that the y range of your data is degenerate. All the y values are the same, within a *very* small error margin, way down close to the technical limit of what a double-precision floating point number can represent (1 +/- n * DBL_EPS, for small integer 'n'). gnuplot's automatic tic step sizing algorithm fails, this close to the boundary. As a workaround, you could remove the constant 1.0 from the data before plotting: plot 'datafile' u 1:($2-1.0) -- Hans-Bernhard Broeker (br...@ph...)
