LabPlot is an open source data analysis and plotting program for the KDE desktop.
This software is similar to Origin (a proprietary Windows application produced by OriginLab Corporation) and has the ability to import Origin’s data files.
LabPlot allows you to work with multiple plots which each can have multiple graphs. The graphs can be produced from data or from functions. All settings of a complete set of plots can be saved in a project files. These project files may be opened by command line parameters, using the File menu, or by drag and drop. Every object (title, legend, axes, axes label) can be dragged with the mouse. A double click on an object opens the corresponding dialog to change the options of the object.
Features include:
- Creating 2D, 3D, surface, polar, ternary, and pie plots from function and data files.
- Filters to import over 80 image formats and export including PostScript, Encapsulated PostScript, and PDF.
