  • Use Origin's Notes window to create the report
  • Use Markdown or HTML syntax
  • Copy and paste-link metadata, analysis results, and graphs
  • Support for Placeholder sheet to copy and pre-format results for placement in report
  • Report can be embedded in workbook for use as Analysis Template for batch analysis

Data Connectors

Data Connectors provide a set of enhanced features for importing and organizing your data.

  • Connect to a web file, or a file on your local PC or network
  • File types supported: CSV, Excel, ASCII/Binary (using Import Wizard filters), HTML, JSON, MATLAB, and Origin Projects
  • Select data to be imported, such as specific node in XML, table in HTML, or Sheet in Origin Project
  • Connection and data selection information is saved in worksheet/workbook
  • Add connectors of same type to multiple worksheets in a workbook, and different connector types to multiple workbooks
  • When saving the Origin project, you can opt to leave out the imported data associated with all connectors, or specific connectors. This can help reduce project file size. All calculated results and graphs from results will not be cleared.
  • Re-import data from the source file any time. Make changes to source or to data selection at any time.
  • More data connectors available for download from the App Center or from Data menu.

Origin Project as Data Repository

Use Origin project files to organize and archive your data. Access your data from Origin using the new Origin Data Connector.

  • Use Origin's flexible hierarchy of Folders, Subfolders, Workbooks and Sheets to organize and archive your data from multiple sources or measurements. Add metadata information such as comments to worksheets to describe your data.
  • Save such ""Data Project"" to a local folder, or even a web sever. You can then share the source location with your colleagues/collaborators.
  • Launch Origin on any PC with access to the data source. Then use the ""Origin Data Connector"" to connect to the ""Data Project""
  • Select specific worksheets from the ""Data Project"" to import the data and perform your graphing and analysis on that particular subset of data.
  • Connect to one or more ""Data Projects"" from your current project for flexible management of your graphing and analysis operations.

Clone an Origin Project

Clone an Origin project to easily replicate graphing and analysis tasks with new data.

  • Set up a Master Origin project with your desired data, graphs, analyses, and reports.
  • Clone the project. This will create a duplicate project without the data.
  • Import new data to update all graphs, results and reports.

You can also use the clone feature for exploratory analysis of large projects.

  • Clone your large Origin project containing data, graphs, and analyses.
  • Opt to maintain Data Connector links to the data sheets in the original project from your cloned project.
  • You can then re-import any particular data sheet from the original project to continue further analysis and exploration of that subset of data.
  • This avoids duplicating large projects containing the same data, and can speed up the exploratory phase of your data analysis.

New Graph Types and Graph Enhancements

The following new graph types and graph enhancements have been added in version 2019b:

  • Split Heatmap
  • Rug Plot - Add rug marks to axes
  • Soil Texture Triangle

  • Heatmap from XYZ or XY data
  • Custom line segments
  • Windrose with open circle for calms

Improved Plot Menu and other Menus

Several improvements have been made to Origin's main menu in this version:

  • System templates in the Plot menu have been organized in easy to access categories.
  • Plot menu also provides quick access to User Templates, and the Graph Maker App.
  • A new Data menu has been introduced for the new Data Connectors and for all other import operations.
  • A new Insert menu for Graph window to add plot, function, error bar, layer, table, image, etc. to an existing graph.
  • A new Preferences menu provides access to settings and preferences, including themes.
  • A new Connectivity menu provides access to tools for communicating with other applications.


Validation of Origin's Analysis Results using NIST Data

In this version we have included a set of sample projects that compare Origin's analysis results with certified values from National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST). Results are presented using Origin's new HTML and Markdown Reports, as described above.

Examples cover Linear Regression, Polynomial Regression, Nonlinear Regression and ANOVA.

Samples can be opened from Origin's Learning Center dialog (F11 key) and are located in a new category named "Validation" under Analysis Samples.

  • Change Point Analysis PRO
  • 3D Windrose
  • Concave Hull PRO
  • Isosurface Plot
  • SAS XPORT Connector
