screencast

My daily task is to deal with sensor data. Thus all my data have errors. As it is plotting them in LabPlot is inconvenient:

- take the attached file. It contains a CSV file I imported. There I set column 4 to be the y-error.
- create now a plot as in the attached screencast

result: the plot does not include the errors
But I explicitly selected a column that is specified as being error values.

It takes a lot of clicks to add the error bars. This reduces the workflow a lot.

To fix this, the plot should automatically get the error bars selected when the plot is created.
