You need to set the AxesOrigin to {0,0} as an option in ListPlot as follows: Test = Table[{x, (1/ 2) + (Cos[2*2*Pi*x]/ 2)*(E^-(x^2) + (1/2)*0.1*E^-((x - 12)^2) + (1/2)*0.05* E^-((x - 27)^2) + (10^-3)*E^-((x - 280)^2))}, {x, -10, 40, 0.05}]; ListPlot[Test, PlotRange -> All, Joined -> True, Frame -> True, FrameLabel -> {"Pathlength Mismatch (2\[CenterDot]m mm)", " Signal Strength "}, BaseStyle -> {FontFamily -> "Garamond", FontSlant -> "Italic", FontSize -> 14}, AxesOrigin -> {0, 0}] Best wishes, Mark Mark R.
