Hello,
I have a suggestion for the GUI interface for time series plots. Could an option be added
to include something like
set termoption dash
in the gnuplot script. It could be a check box in the main tab of the gretl plot control
dialog.
Plotting with dashed lines can be done easily in hansl, but I don't think doing dashed
lines is easily accomplished in the GUI???
Thanks
Logan

Hmm, what version of gnuplot are you using? With gnuplot 4.6.3 on
Fedora 20, "set termoption dash" (or the full form "set termoption
dashed") doesn't seem to do anything at all for the terminals I'm
interested in (pngcairo, pdfcairo, epscairo, svg): lines remain
solid.
Test script (change terminal and filename extension at will):
<gnuplot>
set terminal pngcairo
set output 'dashed.png'
set termoption dashed
plot x**2
</gnuplot>

Hi,
I was puzzled with this and did some searches to find that is missing the
line style in the plot.
For example if you use:
set terminal pngcairo
set output 'dashed.png'
set termoption dashed
plot x**2 ls 2
unset output
(green dashed lines)

Have a nice gnuplotting days :).

Hi,
Apologies, for lack of details. I found the command here
http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/demo/dashcolor.html . My main point was to add a dashed
line option to the GUI.
I am using the GNUPlot bundled with the latest cvs of gretl.
