Python Scripts for OriginPro Automation

A collection of Python scripts using the originpro library to automate plotting, data management, and other routine tasks in OriginLab's Origin software. These tools are designed to streamline the workflow for scientific data analysis and visualization.

Scripts Overview

This repository contains the following scripts:

• plot_active_sheet.py

  • Generates a quick 2D graph from the first two columns of the currently active worksheet in Origin.

• plot_multiple_workbooks.py

  • Plots data from multiple different workbooks into a single, combined graph. It allows users to select workbooks by providing a specific list or a numerical range of indices.

• plot_datafile_columns.py

  • Imports data from an external text file (e.g., .txt) and plots multiple specified columns from that file into a single, stylized scatter graph.

• create_worksheet_index.py

  • Scans the entire Origin project, finds all existing worksheets, and generates a new summary sheet that acts as a "Table of Contents" with the name and index of each worksheet.

Requirements

• OriginPro (with Python support enabled)
• Python 3.x
• originpro library
• pandas library

Usage

1. Ensure you have a running instance of OriginPro.
2. Open the project file you wish to work with.
3. Run the desired Python script from your terminal or IDE.

Note: Some scripts may contain hardcoded file paths or column names. Please modify them as needed for your specific use case.
