2.26 xyerrorlines
The xyerrorlines style is only relevant to 2D data plots.
xyerrorlines is like linespoints, except that horizontal and
vertical error bars are also drawn. At each point (x,y), lines are
drawn from (x,y-ydelta) to (x,y+ydelta) and from (x-xdelta,y) to
(x+xdelta,y) or from (x,ylow) to (x,yhigh) and from (xlow,y) to
(xhigh,y), depending upon the number of data columns provided. A tic
mark is placed at the ends of the error bar (unless bars is
used—see bars for details). Either 4 or 6 input columns are required.
| 4 columns: x y xdelta ydelta
6 columns: x y xlow xhigh ylow yhigh
|
If data are provided in an unsupported mixed form, the using filter on the
‘plot‘ command should be used to set up the appropriate form. For example,
if the data are of the form (x,y,xdelta,ylow,yhigh), then you can use
| plot 'data' using 1:2:($1-$3):($1+$3):4:5 with xyerrorlines
