I am trying to make a simple histogram with this '.dat' file
Moment "Energy consumed (MWh)"
"Apr-16" 2011.4
"May-16" 1869.6
"Jun-16" 1899.0
"Jul-16" 1659.0
"Aug-16" 1740.6
"Sep-16" 1670.0
For this purpose I wrote the following script
set term postscript
set terminal pngcairo nocrop enhanced size 700,700 font "arial,18"
set termoption dash
set output out
set boxwidth 0.5 absolute
set border 0
set style fill solid 1.00 border lt -1
set key off
set style histogram clustered gap 1 title textcolor lt -1
set datafile missing '-'
set style data histograms
set xtics border in scale 0,0 nomirror autojustify
set xtics norangelimit
set xtics ()
unset ytics
set title titulo
set yrange [0.0000 : limite] noreverse nowriteback
show style line
set style line 1 lt 1 lc rgb color lw 1
plot fuente using (column(0)):2:xtic(1) title titulo ls 1 with boxes, '' using 0:2:2 with labels
In this case out, this is the name of the output file, titulo- this is the label that appears at the top of the image, limite- this is the value that I use as the largest value for y-axi, and fuenteis the original file name.
The result is

I am trying to display values above a row with some offset, because I need values above the columns, not inside the columns. I need a separate one I'm trying with code like:
plot fuente using (column(0)):2:xtic(1) title titulo ls 1 with boxes, '' using 0:($2 + 0.5):2 with labels
because I have seen many sites on which he does this $2 + 0.5, but this does not work for me.
What should I do? Please help me, I'm completely lost. Thanks in advance.
