Thanks Ethan. I seem to have pinned down the issue a little bit. To
sidestep anything that might be a problem on my Mac I am testing under
Ubuntu for the time being.
If I plot the data file
Jan 1 1
Feb 2 2
Mar 3 3
all is fine (a total of 6 columns appear), but if I plot the data file
Jan 1 1
Feb 2 2
Mar 3 3
Apr 4 4
May 5 5
I still get six columns. Note that these are not the same. If I can
attempt to translate into text I get:
| x x
| x x x
| x x x x
|xx x x x x
+--------------------------
so in other words I get both columns for "Jan" but only the data for
column 2 for the other months... I am at a loss to explain this,
because all appears fine if I output to a png terminal.
The code I am currently tinkering with as I write this is below.
It could be that I am doing something really stupid here with how I am
using gnuplot. So, just to check, what I am doing is loading gnuplot
and then issuing the command load 'monthlytest.plot'.
At the risk of seeming greedy, do you have any more ideas?
best,
Toby.
---- code:
set terminal epslatex color
set output "monthlytest.tex"
#set terminal png font
#set output "monthlytest.png"
set boxwidth 0.9 relative
set style data histograms
set style histogram clustered
set xlabel "Month"
set yrange [0:*]
plot 'monthlytest.dat' using 2:xticlabels(1) fs pattern 1 lt-1 title
"J=3D10,K=3D10",\
'' using 3 fs pattern 2 lt-1 title "J=3D20, K=3D20"
