Description claude mercier 2004-03-04 19:05:13 UTC
Version:           CVS march2 (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
OS:          Linux

If I create a curve using 
X axis : a Vector VX from the first column 
of a file it displays as label column1
Y axis : A Vectore VY using the second column
of a file, it displays as label column 2

All normal up to now, I made a mistake and exchange
the vector VX and VY, it redisplays the curve properly
but forgets the labels (column1 and colum2).

  This is not possible to implement the way you want since those are filled 
with text.  There is no way to reliably change that label without breaking 
things for a percentage of users.  If you think it is worth the effort, we 
could implement a special substitution such as "[[VECTOR]]" that is 
substituted with the name of the vector of the curve.  Even then it would 
only work well for plots with one curve, so I tend to think it's not 
worthwhile.

Hi Georges,

I did not realize that the label is not attached to the vector itself
so just forget it, especially because it is unlikly to repeat this
mistake that often.
Sorry, not a bug

Claude

We agree it's not of value.
