I am trying to plot five graphs (a,b,c,d,e) in a column order as shown below.
The x-scale for each plot is different and they are not in a vertical line but graphs (c), (d) and (e) have almost similar x range values, that is 24.8.
When I plot these graphs in column order, I find graph labeled (a) and (b) are stretch and compressed respectively.
However, graphs labeled (c), (d) and (e) are having a same scale length.
I have drawn a red line vertically to show how the x-scale of each graph is aligned. (Please see the attached figure)
The gnuplot script that I used is given below.

Can someone have a look into this issue and help me to get a multiplot as I shown but let the scale of each plot is align in vertical order?
It is OK if the graph size is small or big.
But I want the scale to be in line vertically.
Appreciate all your help.
Thank you.
If I edit the set xrange [-26.2:26.2] to be same for all, than I get something below.. which I dont want. I only want as how I shown in the first picture.
Basically you must adjust x-values of the plot size and origin such, that the widest plots keep their current size, and all others are shifted and squeezed according to their smaller ranges.
Since I don't have any data files and cannot test the whole script anyway, here is a sketch of what you need to do:
xsize(width) = 0.80 * width / width_max
ysize = 0.22
width_max = (2 * 26.2)
left_min = -26.2
xorigin(left) = 0.002 + (left - left_min) * xsize / width_max
yorigin = 0.02
set multiplot
# plot A
set xrange [-24.8:24.8]
set origin xorigin(-24.8),yorigin
set size xsize(2*24.8),(ysize+0.015)
plot ...
# plot B
set xrange [-24.8:24.8]
set origin xorigin(-24.8),(yorigin+0.19)

plot '$sample' u 1:2 title "UK/Social" with linespoints dt 3 lw 5 pt 7 lc "blue"
E.g. blue is "Social" and lw 1 (fine dots) is for USA.
Please check the manual or help plot. Plot elements for the same plot are separated by comma.
Syntax:
plot {<ranges>} <plot-element> {, <plot-element>, <plot-element>}
To improve readability you can split long code lines into several lines by using \. Note that no character is allowed after \ in the same line except carriage return/line feed.
Try this:
plot '$sample' u 1:2 title "UK/Business" w lp dt 3 lw 5 pt 7 lc "red", \
'' u 1:2 title "USA/Social" w lp dt 3 lw 1 pt 7 lc "blue", \
'' u 1:2 title "UK/Social" w lp dt 3 lw 5 pt 7 lc "blue"
Addition: (a filter depending on two (string)-columns)
You can implement a filter by using the ternary operator. Check help ternary and help strcol. A value which does not pass the filter will be set to NaN. If you still want to your points being connected with lines, you need to set datafile missing NaN.
Code:

Result:
I'm trying to use Gnuplot to create a line chart. Each line is represented by a different color. What I want is the key has the same color as the line color. This is what I have right now, current version. Is it possible to set the text 'Line 2' colored as orange, 'Line 3' colored as red, etc?
This is what I wrote in the gp file:
set xlabel'x-axis'; \
set xrange[0:25];\
set ylabel 'y-axis';\
set yrange [2:9];\
set key left top;

Thank you so much.
Unfortunately not. The plot title does not (now, gp5.2pl0) recognise the "textcolor" specifier.
plot x lw 3 lc rgb "blue" title "x" tc rgb "blue" # doesn't work
You can only print an empty (" ") plot title, and overprint it with a coloured label
set label 1 at 8,1 "bluetitle" tc rgb "blue"
That requires some fiddling with the placement of the label, of course.
You might put up a feature request on https://sourceforge.net/p/gnuplot/feature-requests/

Loading this code on gnuplot console following error appears
"meltcomp.p", line 28: ';' expected
then, Closing the console, graph will plot like this:
But last 4 data files are not present.
What would be problem in this case?
problem was 11 line. I am not allowed to leave comment.
'3exp0173.dat' u 1:2 w p pt 4 lc rgb 'blue' 2 ,\
in which 2 after color command makes problem. 2 shouldn't be there.
I am trying to plot multiple graphs using "multiplot" option from gnuplot.
The figure I plot was as below.
I have a small problem but I dont know how to solve this. The problem is regarding the scale of every individual plot. If one notice, scale for every plot a, b, c, d and e is different. For every plot I used different set xrange values. So, I understand gnuplot tried to stretched the plots to fit into the given width limit. Due to that, the scale along horizontal axis do not evenly spaced.
I want the scale to be evenly spaced for every plot especially for horizontal axis.
Below I have given the full code for your view.
How I can get this done?
Many thanks in advance.

If I understood you correctly, you want the units to have the same length for all graphs. You can dynamically set the margins to obtain this effect with a do loop. Basically you'll need to define the xranges at the beginning and also the maximum range that you will find (you could do this also automatically with a bit more work). The following code should do what you want (read the comments for further info):
# This function returns the ranges for each graph,
# I have only defined 3
range(i)=(i == 1 ? "-20 20" : \
i == 2 ? "-25 25" : \
i == 3 ? "-15 15" : 1/0)
# Number of graphs and maxrange
N = 3; maxrange = 50.
set xtics 5.
set multiplot
# Loop
do for [i=1:N] {
# Set the margins
set tmargin at screen 0.98-(i-1.)/N
set bmargin at screen 0.74-(i-1.)/N
# Set range and calculate total range for graph i
set xrange [word(range(i),1) : word(range(i),2)]
totalrange = word(range(i),2) - word(range(i),1)
# Center the graphs at 0.55 and scale them depending on their range
set lmargin at screen 0.55-0.43*totalrange/maxrange
set rmargin at screen 0.55+0.43*totalrange/maxrange
# Plot
plot sin(x) not
}
Of course there is room for plenty of customization here.
You can define your functions also depending on the label i so they change through the loop:
f(x,i) = (i == 1 ? sin(x) : \
i == 2 ? cos(x) : \
i == 3 ? tan(x) : 1/0)
.
.
.
plot f(x,i)
If you have data files, you can do the same in this way:
datafiles = "data1 data2 data3"
.
.
.
plot word(datafiles,i)
Likewise with the styles and so on:
set style line 1 lw 1
set style line 2 lw 2
set style line 3 lw 3
.
.
.
plot f(x,i) ls i
Finally, if you want complete control (e.g. you are mixing functions and datafile or something else) you can define if statements within the for loop:
.
.
.
if (i == 1) {plot sin(x)}
if (i == 2) {plot cos(x)}
if (i == 3) {plot "data1"}
I am plotting multiplot with 11 graphs. I given the code used below:

The graph that I get is show here
What I notice from the graph is there is lot of empty space between the graphs. For example between graph (a) and (b) and also between graph (a) and (d). I want to reduce the space between them and make the graph little bigger.
What I should do to reduce the space and optimize the graph size.
Thanks in advance.
Ok, lets start :)
First, your script and your naming of the data files is perfect for iterations. So, you can define a list of file name templates with a placeholder %s, which is later substituted by the actual parameter.
So you first have an iteration over the different O11, O12 etc. values and for each of those a new plot is generated. Then you have a plot for iteration over the file names which are all placed in a single plot.
Using set linetype to define the colors allows you to make use of the automatic line type increment.
Now to your actual question:
I think the best options are to correct the offset of the labels a bit, e.g. with
set ylabel "g(r)" offset 1,0 #labelFONT
which shifts the ylabel by one character unit to the right with respect to the automatically selected position. That should give you a little bigger graph.
If that isn't enough you must start to manually set the margins. I would start by changing only the top and right margins. With e.g.
set tmargin 0
set rmargin 0
the top and right margins will be placed at the boundaries of the respective panels. With e.g. set rmargin 0.5 the right margin is set to a half character width. You must play around with these values.
Here is a shortened script. Note, that I couldn't test it, because I don't have the data files. I hope I didn't make any errors :)
