It has a graphical user interface, a command-line interface, and an interactive and animated notebook interface. It is similar to Origin and able to import Origin's data files.[2] Features include the Hilbert transform function, statistics, color maps, conditional formatting, and multi-axes.[3]
History
In 2008, developers of LabPlot and SciDAVis (another Origin clone, forked from QtiPlot) "found their project goals to be very similar" and decided to merge their code into a common backend while maintaining two frontends: LabPlot, integrated with the KDE desktop environment (DE); and SciDAVis, written in DE-independent Qt with less dependencies for easier cross-platform use.[4]
Staring April 2024, LabPlot received funding from NLNet's NGI0 COre grant to add scripting capabilities (via Python and a public interface), more data analysis functions, and statistical analysis features.[5]
