Is it possible to have a line-point style for xy plot in which color of points is different from line. I know it possible to plot xy two times one with line and one with points each use different color, but I don’t mean this solution

Hi Carlo,
thanks for your nice words. Don’t worry, I’m not very active here at the moment, but the page will be available during the next years.

Once again thanks for all your tips!
I am seriously thinking in saving all your tips in a PDF manual as back up! :P As an active user of gnuplot I find this website probably my first resource to make the plots look nice. Thanks so much! Carlo

Hi,

I am new gnuplot, I have a set of single column values, like below,
30.5
20.3
50.5
60.2
75.1
all I want to do is, if the value is 20 yellow and >50 red. How do I do this?

Below are the code that I am using now,
set term pngcairo
set output “***.png”
set style fill transparent solid 0.30 noborder
plot ‘***.dat’ with filledcurves x1 lc rgb “blue”

Hi,
Yes, turns out the version was the problem, works fine with 4.6. I’d like to thank you for this website: it’s a real lifesaver :)

Hi Stefano.

Please try if you can reproduce Fig. 5 by the gnuplot script and data given in the figure caption. If not then it is most likely a problem due to your gnuplot version.

Hello,
I was trying to get something along the lines of your Fig. 5 plot, using gnuplot 4.2 (patchlevel 6), but while I do get the correct colors as indicated in my third column when using lines or points, when I try boxes the palette takes the color values from the first column of data (which is instead the height of the boxes).

Any idea what’s going on? may it be a version related problem?

Sorry for bothering you.

Stefano
