Other features include:
- New Messages Log Window
This window will display
key messages such as successful execution of certain commands, or
errors generated from various operations. The window can be set to
be in auto hide mode, and it will pop open when new messages are
available to view.
- Split Worksheet Tool
This new tool allows you to
separate data in an existing worksheet to multiple worksheets by
groups of columns, groups of rows, or using a column label.
- Flat Sheet Output for Column Statistics
Descriptive
Statistics on Columns now creates a “Flat” worksheet with the
quantities computed, in addition to the table in the report sheet.
This allows users to quickly plot and perform secondary analysis
on the results.
- Raw and Index Data Support for more Statistical Tools
More statistics tools now provide support for raw versus
indexed data arrangement.
- System Path Tab in Tools: Options Dialog
This new
tab provides information on various system paths such as User
Files Folder and Autosave folder. Some of the paths can be changed
by editing the paths in this dialog.
- Ability to Specify Data Range using X Values
Many
tools such as linear and nonlinear fitter now allow specifying the
range of data by using begin and end X values. This allows for
performing operations such as fitting on multiple datasets with
different spacing, and restricting the fit to be in the same x
range, which is not possible by specifying row index for range
selection.
- Repeat Existing Analysis on All Plots or All Columns
Once an operation such as curve fitting has been performed on
one plot in a layer or one column in a worksheet, user can click
on the lock and ask for the same operation to be repeated on all
plots in the page, or on all columns in the source data sheet.
- Improvements to Distribution Curves for Histogram Plot
Distribution curves overlaid on histogram plots can be
normalized using data characteristics, or user can opt to
normalize as a percentage of the tallest bar. Option is also
provided to output ALL normalization curves to the histogram bin
worksheet. The output to bin worksheet is created by normalizing
using data characteristics, and the parameter values for each
curve is stored in custom label rows.

National
Instruments™ LabVIEW™ is widely used for data collection.
For example, many instrument and sensor vendors provide
LabVIEW drivers for acquiring data. Once the data is
collected, the end user will need to analyze the data
and create reports for presentation. Origin provides
powerful data analysis and graphing tools, including
the Analysis Template feature which provides the means
for performing repeat analysis on newly acquired data.
The ability to communicate between LabVIEW and Origin
can thus greatly improve the efficiency of data acquisition,
and post-acquisition analysis and presentation.

“Origin
8 can now really augment LabVIEW’s power.
The drag-and-drop Origin sub-VIs that come
with Origin 8 are simple and easy to use. With
Origin's Analysis Templates it is now very simple
to create a reusable application that acquires
data from third-party instruments, and then passes
the data for analysis and report generation to
Origin. One can also get curve fit results back
into LabVIEW to display in LabVIEW's charts and
graphs on the fly. What's best is that this
is all accomplished in a native LabVIEW environment.”
James T. Gardner, Ph. D.
Chief Engineer
Environmental Instruments, Inc. |
|
With
this objective in view, we have provided a collection
of LabVIEW sub-VIs (see images) that are shipped with
Origin. LabVIEW users can then simply incorporate these
custom sub-VIs in their main LabVIEW application to
communicate seamlessly with Origin.

|
|
For
detailed information on the LabVIEW sub-VIs shipped
with Origin, please see: Sub-VIs provided by Origin.
NOTE:
Some of the custom VIs are available only since Origin
8 with the latest patch. Please apply the patch to obtain
the most recent set of LabVIEW VIs.

Did
you know you can run Origin/OriginPro on a Mac? Using a virtualization
software, you can easily install and run Origin and OriginPro
on a Macintosh® computer
from Apple®. This page
outlines what you will need and shows you how easy it is to
get started.
Installing
the Origin and OriginPro sofware on an Mac computer requires
the following:

Intel®-based Mac:
MacBook®, MacBook®
Pro, iMac®, Mac Pro,
Mac Mini.
- Virtualization
software: VMWare® Fusion or Parallels® Desktop.
- Microsoft®
Windows®: 2000, XP,
or Microsoft Vista®.
- Origin
or OriginPro.
- Install

Tips
for running Origin on Mac
- What
license types are supported using this configuration?
ALL
license types have been found to run successfully on an
Intel-based Mac using virtualization software. This includes
node-locked, dongle-managed, and concurrent licenses.
- Why
can't I paste the licence text from the web page onto the
Origin dialog?
Note
that the shortcut keys for copy and paste are different
for Mac (cmd+c and cmd+v) and for Windows (ctrl+c and
ctrl+v). If you copied the licence text from browser running
on Mac OS using cmd+c, you should use ctrl+v to paste
the text onto the Origin dialog.
- Can
I paste an Origin graph to Word as an OLE embedded object?
If
you are running Word for Mac, then the pasted object is
treated only as an image and you cannot double-click the
image to open the Origin project. If on the other hand
you are running Word on the Windows partition, then you
can OLE-paste your graph from Origin onto Word.
- How
do I exchange files between Mac and Windows?
Just
drag-and-drop the file between the Mac and Windows partitions!
The virtual machine creates a copy when a file is dragged
and dropped in either direction. You could thus easily
open an OPJ by dragging and dropping the file from a Mac
folder right onto the Origin workspace. Similarly, you
can export a graph from Origin to a folder in the Windows
partition and then drag-and-drop the exported file to
a Mac application for publication purposes.
