program for displaying graphs from a igor binary

Tue, 10/11/2011 - 12:46 pm

I want to create a function or a macro that would graph all the waves in a igor binary file(.igb). I want to get the list of waves that are present in the igor binary file , so that i can combine 2 or 3 waves in one graph. can any one please help me with this ?

An Igor binary wave file (.ibw) contains just one wave.

.igb is not an Igor file extension. Perhaps you mean Igor packed experiment file (.pxp).

You can read about programmatically loading and graphing data by executing this:

DisplayHelpTopic "Loading Waves Using Igor Procedures"

But first I recommend that you go through the first half of the Igor guided tour if you have not already done it. Choose Help->Getting Started.
