How do I label Conc-Effect curve with Time

Hi, Just wondering whether anyone can help me figure out how to do this: I’m generating concentration-effect curves, and would like to label the datapoints with some other information, such as collection time. In other words, I want the data labels to show something other than simply IVAR or DV. Yet that seems to be what Phoenix defaults to. I don’t understand why I can select a ‘Data Label’ column in my dataset, but then when I enable Data Labels, it simply ignores the values in those columns and uses IVAR and DV. Here’s an example to illustrate. The labels that are shown are simply the axis values - the contents of my ‘Data Label’ column are completely ignored. Am I missing something? Thanks, as always, -Frank [file name=Data_Labels_dont_work-20130816-2.phxproj size=73026]Certara | Drug Development Solutions

Maybe I mis-interpreted but I think you want to change the label, simply use F2 to rename it as indicated below (or double click) then re-execute to see the new legend label

Hi, Thanks for the quick response. Actually, that’s not quite what I wanted to do. What you’re suggesting will relabel the entire dataset, as it appears in the legend. What I’d like to do is label the individual points with something other than IVAR and DV. The sample project I attached includes an illustration of what I’m aiming for, except that using the ‘Data Label’ column in the Setup, and then enabling the ‘Show Data Labels’ checkbox simply shows the IVAR values next to the datapoints.

Sorry - I was trying to send something as I was heading out for a meeting; what you want is this right; use_textvariables_as_Datalabels.jpghowever due to a bug (QC_PHX_11536) you will need to use text variables for Data labels, so in your case I used a custom transform first; concatenate( time," h") hope this workaround is good for you.

Thanks Simon! Yes, that’s EXACTLY what I was trying to do. Really appreciate the help. -Frank
