Gnuplot Line Types

How to draw different types of strings in gnuplot? I need to paint different colors. My script merges several files, and I think so the lines are not dashes. Only two out of four are broken. thanks felipe

#!/usr/bin/gnuplot set grid set title 'Estado dos arquivos no BTRIM com peers de comportamento condicionado' set xlabel 'Tempo discreto' set ylabel 'Quantidade de arquivos' set style line 1 lc rgb '#0060ad' lt 1 lw 2 pi -1 ps 1.0 set style line 2 lc rgb '#dd181f' lt 9 lw 2 pi -1 ps 1.0 set style line 3 lc rgb '#29c524' lt 6 lw 2 pi -1 ps 1.0 set style line 4 lc rgb '#7D72F9' lt 7 lw 2 pi -1 ps 1.0 set style line 5 lc rgb '#000000' lt 8 lw 2 pi -1 ps 1.0 set termoption dashed #set pointintervalbox 0 #set boxwidth 0.1 #set style fill solid plot '<paste ../00/StatisticNormal.txt ../01/StatisticNormal.txt ../02/StatisticNormal.txt ../03/StatisticNormal.txt ../04/StatisticNormal.txt ../05/StatisticNormal.txt ../06/StatisticNormal.txt ../07/StatisticNormal.txt ../08/StatisticNormal.txt ../09/StatisticNormal.txt' smooth unique with line ls 1 title 'Normais', \ '<paste ../00/StatisticVogue.txt ../01/StatisticVogue.txt ../02/StatisticVogue.txt ../03/StatisticVogue.txt ../04/StatisticVogue.txt ../05/StatisticVogue.txt ../06/StatisticVogue.txt ../07/StatisticVogue.txt ../08/StatisticVogue.txt ../09/StatisticVogue.txt' smooth unique with line ls 2 title 'na Moda', \ '<paste ../00/StatisticPopular.txt ../01/StatisticPopular.txt ../02/StatisticPopular.txt ../03/StatisticPopular.txt ../04/StatisticPopular.txt ../05/StatisticPopular.txt ../06/StatisticPopular.txt ../07/StatisticPopular.txt ../08/StatisticPopular.txt ../09/StatisticPopular.txt' smooth unique with line ls 3 title 'Populares', \ '<paste ../00/StatisticRarity.txt ../01/StatisticRarity.txt ../02/StatisticRarity.txt ../03/StatisticRarity.txt ../04/StatisticRarity.txt ../05/StatisticRarity.txt ../06/StatisticRarity.txt ../07/StatisticRarity.txt ../08/StatisticRarity.txt ../09/StatisticRarity.txt' smooth unique with line ls 4 title 'Raros' pause -1

Up to version 4.6

The linestyle dash linestyle is specified by the linetype parameter, which also selects the line color, unless you explicitly set another with linecolor .

However, support for dashed lines depends on the selected terminal:

  • Some terminals do not support dashed lines, for example png (uses libgd )
  • Other terminals, such as pngcairo , support dashed lines, but are disabled by default. To enable it, use set termoption dashed or set terminal pngcairo dashed ...
  • Accurate line art differs between terminals. To see a specific linetype , use the test command:

Launch

 set terminal pngcairo dashed set output 'test.png' test set output

gives:

whereas the postscript terminal shows different dash patterns:

 set terminal postscript eps color colortext set output 'test.eps' test set output

Version 5.0

Starting with version 5.0, the following changes are introduced regarding line types, dashes, and line colors:

  • A new dashtype parameter has been dashtype :

    To get predefined dashes, use for example

     plot x dashtype 2

    You can also specify custom dash patterns, for example

     plot x dashtype (3,5,10,5),\ 2*x dashtype '.-_'

  • Terminal parameters dashed and solid ignored. By default, all lines are solid. To change them to dashed lines, use, for example,

     set for [i=1:8] linetype i dashtype i

  • The default line color set has been changed. You can choose between three different color sets with set colorsequence default|podo|classic :
