Violin plot recreation code error
Sun, 03/26/2023 - 01:58 pm
When you make a graph with a violin plot and save it or make a recreation macro for that graph, it generates a code as follows:
ModifyViolinPlot trace=ValueMatrix01,PlotSide2,MarkerSize=2,MarkerColor=(39321,1,31457)
and fails when you reload that file or provoke graph macro.
Apparently, this should be
PlotSide=2.
I suppose this is an error that should be corrected.
Best,
F.K.

Sure enough. I thought I'd found all the bugs in violin plot command generation! Get the fix in the latest nightly build tomorrow. Be sure the get build #39914 or later. Use Help->Igor Pro Nightly Builds to go to the download site.

Thank you for this nightly build that solved the issue.
Another issue: how can I change the general violin style for individual dataset of the trace?
It seems that a command
Build 39920.

You are correct about BoxWidth- but only for box plots and violin plots on a numeric X axis. If you use a category axis, it works. The code for the per-dataset BoxWidth was all in place, but the drawing code always used data set 0 instead of the correct data set.
Fixed for the next nightly build. Build 39942 or later.
My testing with BandWidth shows that it works as expected. The Edit Bandwidths dialog is hard to use, though. It was invented before I implemented the per-dataset settings in Igor 9. I should alter it to use the same method as the other settings, especially since it doesn't generate a command line. That's just wrong!
