Bug ID: 470003
Summary: Making, managing and applying custom templates is
buggy and confusing
Classification: Applications
Product: LabPlot2
Version: 2.10.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
One would expect that if you customize a graph and then save it, it would
automatically be added to the other themes in the context menu, but this is not
the case. It seems that every node in the project explorer (worksheet, plot
area, axis and data) has to be saved and loaded as a separate template file. It
would be way more user-friendly if one could save and apply all these separate
templates in one go, just like Origin Lab's Origin, and that these would show
up with the other themes in the context menu.
In addition, currently saving these templates work fine, however, loading them
does not work. In the properties explorer things change, but these settings do
not get applied after loading. Also, I see no way to delete templates in
LabPlot as it stands right now.
Sorry if this comes across disrespectful in a way, this is not at all the case,
and I have a great deal of respect for this software. However, I think having
functioning theming capabilities would make this software a serious contender
to Origin and Prism. Right now, it is just very annoying that I have to edit
every graph manually.
