Recreate Graph / Access to History

Hi,

If I modify for example a graph, Igor writes everything into the history. Is there a way to write these commands to a string instead, such that I can use them later to recreate the graph?

I searched both forums and Igor help files, but I was not able to find any answer.

Thanks,
lin
Recreating a graph is handled in a much easier way in Igor. You can create macros for this in you current experiment (they will be created in the standard procedure window). Paste the following in the command line in Igor and press enter to read more about this:

If you just want to keep a specific graph- modification command for later use you can copy the command to a notebook. Then you can execute it if needed form the notebook via right click -> execute selection after selecting the command.
