It would be nice if these would be scaled when changing the overall font size, too (not sure how important this is to other people, though).

We are presently moving pro Fit to Python 3, though, so I hope we?ll be able to give you some good news, soon.

I have a very basic set of data that I have binned to make a histogram, then normalized the bins so that I can compare multiple data sets, and I need to fit a Gaussian curve to these data. I am having trouble figuring out the exact steps to take to accomplish this using ProFit.

For binning your data, use the Binning Tool in the Calc menu. You can use this to tabulate the bins. Once you have tabulated the bins, choose ?Peaks? -> ?Gauss Peaks? from the Func menu. In the parameter window, set the number of peaks (# peaks) to 1. You probably don?t have a background under the peak, so set ?bg-deg? to 0 and ?bg-0? as well. While editing bg-0, uncheck ?Use for Fitting? because you don?t want to fit the background offset. Then, enter guesses for the other parameters of the Gaussian, in particular its center x0-1. Then, run a fit (e.g. by choosing Curve Fit from the Calc menu) Hope this helps Best Kurt QuantumSoft > On 18 Mar 2021, at 16:32, Alicia Cruz-Uribe wrote: > > Dear ProFit users, > > I have been using ProFit for many years for plotting, but I have never used the statistical functions and I am not well versed in statistics.
