Stacking overlay plots

Question

Hi,

I thought I might be able to stack overlay plots into one window in a script like this:

Distribution(
 stack( 1 ),
 Overlay Plot(
	X( :static_clear_rel ),
	Y( :MxBmin, :Pred Formula MxBmin ),
	Sort X( 0 )
 ),
 Overlay Plot(
	X( :static_clear_rel ),
	Y( :MxBmax, :Pred Formula MxBmax ),
	Sort X( 0 )
 ),
)

But no window pops up, and I get no warnings/errors. If I change it to the following, I do get 2 separate windows to popup:

//Distribution(
// stack( 1 ),
 Overlay Plot(
	X( :static_clear_rel ),
	Y( :MxBmin, :Pred Formula MxBmin ),
	Sort X( 0 )
 );
 Overlay Plot(
	X( :static_clear_rel ),
	Y( :MxBmax, :Pred Formula MxBmax ),
	Sort X( 0 )
 );
//)

You can use the frame box copy and paste feature to stick the charts together.

new window("my wnd",
	c1= Overlay Plot(
	X( :static_clear_rel ),
	Y( :MxBmin, :Pred Formula MxBmin ),
	Sort X( 0 )
	);
	c2 = Overlay Plot(
	X( :static_clear_rel ),
	Y( :MxBmax, :Pred Formula MxBmax ),
	Sort X( 0 )
	);	
);

// copy the framebox of the first chart and drop it on the second.
fb1 = (c1<< report())[framebox(1)];
fb1 << copy frame contents();
fb2 = (c2<< report())[framebox(1)];
fb2 << paste frame contents();
// you can now delete the first chart if you want.
c1 << delete();

Another way would be to stack your data, then just use one overlay with grouping column.

You may need to enclose the Overlay scripts in a

New Window("Window Name", XXXX)

Replace the XXXX with the scripts you're trying to paste together.  You can format the output using horizontal and vertical list boxes (vlistbox and hlistbox).
