Hi Micro

You need to start your csv with headings.

Time, Value
0, 10.020
1, 10.000 etc

I don't think Veusz can accept date-time format as you have in your dataset as a continuous variate. Just turn it into seconds, 0,1,2,...10.

Veusz will read in your date-time format as text only. So you cannot use it for a xy plot. Perhaps, you can use it as labels on a bar graph, or the like.

OK add column headings and make the time data into simple seconds, then when you do Data - Import, select your file and its contents will be displayed, but don't forget to import it (click the import button).

In XY object, set the X data and Y data properties by selecting your column headings from the respective drop down boxes.

Simple really once you get the drift of how it works. Veusz is great and worth the short learn curve needed to get yourself up and running.

Cheers Ian

Hi all,

I've got a *.csv which look's like this:

05.06.11 22:46, 10.020
05.06.11 22:47, 10.000
05.06.11 22:48, 10.070
05.06.11 22:49, 10.020
05.06.11 22:50, 10.030
05.06.11 22:51, 9.980
05.06.11 22:52, 9.930
05.06.11 22:53, 9.950
05.06.11 22:54, 9.990
05.06.11 22:55, 9.980
05.06.11 22:56, 9.990

I'm running on version 1.11 on Mac OS 10.6.7...

I use Menu "Data / Import" to link my dataset to the project, but when adding 
the xy plot to the graph I'm stuck. I even followed the howto from the page, but my data 
seems to be so different that this doesn't work for me!

Hope you can help, I need to accomplish this so I can document it for a client. 
I'll commit that documentation to the wiki when done...
