Because it had to be sideways, I had to resort to manually assembling the plot with the boxxyerror style, with an awkward preprocessing step. This, and your question, gives me the idea that it might be worth adding a general 'transpose' option to some of the "clever" plot styles that produce non-trivial vertical plots (histograms and boxplots, mostly). best regards, Peter Juhasz _______________________________________________ gnuplot-beta mailing list [email protected] Membership management via: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gnuplot-beta
