Altaxo Data Processing/Plotting Program News

2014/02: After a long period of development, Altaxo is back!

The most important news is that now you can embed your graphs into MS Word, PowerPoint etc. via COM/OLE.
It took me two thick books and a lot of internet searching to implement this, and at first I thought it wouldn't be possible at all using .NET and WPF. Beside this feature, all graphical items can now be put in any z-order (this means you can bring them on top, or hide them below other items). Per default any graph now contains at least two layers: one root layer RL (the outer boundaries of the graph), and the x-y plot layer L0. You now are able to position your graphical items either in absolute coordinates (as it was before), or relative to the parent layer, and you can choose the anchor point for both the graphical item and the parent...... read more

Altaxo is a data processing and plotting program written in C# for the .NET framework. Version 0.54 is a significant update. The drawing logic has been completely rewritten to allow other coordinate systems, for instance polar coordinates. The grouping logic of plot items also has been renewed. This allows for other plot styles, for instance column chart plot styles (and bar chart too - thanks to the updated coordinate system), stacked bar charts or relative bar charts and waterfall diagrams. An error bar style is now included too. Other new stuff (from version 0.53 to 0.54): The user interface for nonlinear fitting now supports predefined fitting functions (defined in the program - not changeable), user defined permanent fitting functions (stored in the users application directory) and document fitting functions (stored directly in the document). The GUI now allows to configure nearly all options of a pen or brush. Thus a lot of new possibilities to style your graph have been created. See also the project page at http://altaxo.sourceforge.net

This is a significant update with many improvements, for instance a GUI to nonlinear
fitting, revised script windows, user defined plotting and fitting functions and more.

that the provided .msi file can only be used with .NET 2.0.

After some sideways (check out for instance http://syncoco.sourceforge.net) I'm back again on Altaxo!
This version contains major improvements and bug fixes. To name a few of them:

• Multivariate methods (PLS, PCR) now features spectral preprocessing, including first and second derivative
• AutoCompletion is faster and more reliable (thanks to the SharpDevelop team)
• added graphics tools, for instance DataReader and CoordinateReader
• and many more....

Due to popular request, I will try to publish the mathematical core of Altaxo in shorter time intervalls than the main program. AltaxoCore is the mathematical function library of Altaxo. For details, see the homepage http://altaxo.sourceforge.net and the class library of the core at http://altaxo.sourceforge.net/CoreClassRef/index.html

Altaxo is a data analysis and plotting program written in C#. The new version 0.50 features a completely new GUI, namely that of SharpDevelop 0.99. It takes advantage of SharpDevelops code completion and syntax highlighting for editing worksheet scripts. Also new is a growing collection of C# numeric routines and special functions, which you can use in your scripts. Thanks to SharpDevelop's addin feature it is also easy to write your own addins for more permanent usage.
