Function Documentation

◆ attach()

def originpro.utils.attach ( )
Attach to exising Origin instance

◆ color_col()

def originpro.utils.color_col (   offset = 1,

)
Generate Origin's internal OColor to use in data plot's color setting
Parameters:
    offset (int): worksheet column offset to the plot's Y column
    type (str): 'm' for Colormap, 'n' = Indexing, 'r' = RGB
Returns:
    OColor
Examples:
    plot.color = op.color_col()# use next column to Y as color map values
    plot.color = op.color_col(1,'n') #use index color, column needs to contain 1,2,3 etc
