With Origin 7.5, OriginLab's goal was to create a suite of features that would improve Origin's ease-of-use and further extend its analysis power. This has been achieved by introducing new features, as well as redesigning old ones to simplify the steps required to import data, create graphs, and apply formatting details.

Features that will benefit everyone from the novice to the most advanced user include an Import Wizard, Themes, Group Format Palettes and Lists, as well as a new Plot Setup dialog and redesigned Layer tool.

New features that cater to a more specific user audience include, Automatic Update of Worksheet Calculations, the ability to attach user files to an Origin project (OPJ), a new dialog for direct matrix conversion, a programmable Origin C dialog, Automation Server support, and MATLAB® Connectivity.
