OOo Calc Error Bars
« on: 22 March 2004, 20:56 »
Does anyone know how the frig to set up some error bars on a graph in OOo Calc?

I looked in the help under error bars:charts but this useful gem just inks to the gerneral page about making charts and tells you nothing about error bars...  :mad:    :confused:

So, guys do you have any ideas? I really don't wanna use MS Office and Windows.
Pleaz0r pleaz0r help me.  ;)

Error bars are little lines above and below plotted points on a graph and they show the possible innaccuracy in results.



Fortunately I've solve my problem. But not with OOo alc, I used gnuplot. gnuplot owns, there is a tiny bit of syntax to learn but it's a very powerful scientific graphing program. I runs on many operating systems, can output in postscript, gif, png, latex and it is free(beer).
