Use variables in graph name

[kourosh kalayehParticipant]

Hi,

One very practical feature that is currently missed in DataGraph is the ability to use variables in graph names.  Here is my use case,

I have templates for regular data that I am working with.  And I usually name my graphs with “date of experiment” along with another informative piece of information.  I also use the date of experiment as a title of my graphs.  I have defined a variable called “doe” to change the title of graphs dynamically.  It would be very nice to be able to do so on graph names as well.

Thanks,
Kourosh

Kourosh-

i would find this useful as well, though I would warn you that data graph doesn’t do well if you have hundreds of graphs in a single file, especially if you use the t variable for animations… I learned that the hard way. 😅

Hi Jordan,

I am happy that I am not the only one looking for this feature.

My typical DataGraph files have about 50 or so graphs in them and so far I have not had any problems.  I also don’t use any sort of animation.

Best,
Kourosh
