Description rogier.delporte 2019-03-12 10:34:20 UTC

Dear maintainer

I would like to have the following feature added to the wishlist: the possibility to automate as much as possible of labplot2. I have many files that are very similar in structure, but have different data and I want to make very similar plots for them, and I want to only have to babysit the curve fitting.

Hi,

there is already work ongoing into this direction. It will still require some time until implemented.

We implemented scripting and it's going to be part of the next release 3.0. Please check the current documentation for it on https://docs.labplot.org/en/scripting.html. We're still stabilizing the code and if you want to try out the current development version and to provide some feedback, this would be really helpful.
