how to align graph table etc in the layout?

Share icon

Hi, I new to igor. I want to know what is the elegant way to align items in the layout to make sure everything is in the same column or row.

I notice I may do that manually by typing the position one by one. but if there is any faster way to this please let me know.

THX.
Use the Align submenu of the Layout menu.

Thank you, I did not notice this menu option.
during the learning I met another problem.
how to modify the position of Y & X axis in each graph so that in each graph they are at the same position?

Hi,

This is not exactly the same topic, because it is not about "Layout" but about the physical layout of windows. 

But I'll add a comment because Google took me to this post while I was searching for the method for attaching a table to a graph. The method is to create a Panel with the /EXT flag and then append the table with /HOST=# 

Here is an example:

// Display a graph with a table showing the graphed data attached
Make wave0
Display wave0
NewPanel /W=(0,400,400,0)/K=1 /EXT=0 /HOST=#
Edit /HOST=# /W=(0,0,1,1)
AppendToTable wave0
