Graphs
Graphs is a free Linux desktop application for plotting and manipulating data, released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. It imports column files such as CSV, DAT, XY, and plain text, plus ODS and XLSX spreadsheets, SQLite databases, Panalytical XRDML, Leybold XRY, and Graphs project files. Equations can generate datasets and remain rendered across the plot canvas. Data operations include translation, multiplication, normalization, centering, smoothing, differentiation, integration, Fourier transformation, combining, shifting, cutting, and custom coordinate transformations. Curve fitting offers linear, quadratic, exponential, power-law, logarithmic, sigmoid logistic, Gaussian, and custom-equation models. Results may include parameter confidence margins, confidence bands, R², RMSE, and residual plots. Users can select or create plot styles controlling colors, fonts, lines, markers, error bars, axes, ticks, and grids. Figures export to PNG, JPEG, WebP, SVG, PDF, PostScript, or Encapsulated PostScript, with underlying data export too. Vector output can be edited in applications such as Inkscape. Flathub describes the app as requesting no permissions.
