Multiple Panel Plots - Layer Graphs in Origin

Mutliple Panel Plots


Origin's built-in multiple panel plots - Horizontal 2 Panel, Vertical 2 Panel, 4 Panel, and 9 Panel - are great for displaying multiple variables on one graph page. When plotting, the first selected data set is plotted in the first panel, and the second in the second, and so forth. Origin's multiple panel graphs display each data set as a Line plot by default.

Vertical 2 Panel Plot

Vertical 2 Panel Graph created in Origin  


This Vertical 2 Panel example shows the results of a Cigarette study. The graph includes several Line + Symbol plots rather than the template's default Line plots. Changing the plot type from Line to Line + Symbol takes just two clicks - select the data plot in the graph and click the desired plot type button.

Horizontal 2 Panel Plot

Horizontal 2 Panel graph created in Origin  

This Horizontal 2 Panel example shows a compilation of published activation energies for evaporation of C2 molecules from C60 (buckyball). The graph includes several Scatter plots (some with associated errors), rather than the plot's default Line plots.

4 Panel Plot

4 Panel graph created in Origin  

This 4 Panel graph shows the effects of varying input parameters -- effective tile drain diameter, depth to tile drain from surface, depth to impervious layer, and hydraulic conductivity correction factor -- on the objective function drain discharge in a 2D, variably-saturated flow model.

9 Panel Plot

9 Panel graph created in Origin  

This 9 Panel graph depicts mid-range IR spectra of the acid form of zeolite SSZ-35. Plotted are absorbance versus wave number.

Custom Multiple Panel Plots

To make custom panel plots, Origin includes the ability to add and arrange panels on a graph window. You can even add inset panels and/or offset axes to your graph!

Custom Origin graph includes an Inset Panel

Note:

Origin provides the same control over its Multiple Panel plots as it does for Line plots. To learn more about these properties, view the Line plot details page. You can also change plot types to Scatter, Line + Symbol and/or Column/Bar.
