Multiple X and Y axes plots

unknown

Hi Guys,

How can I plot multiple X axes and multiple Y axes on the same plot?

I tried to use overlay plots but that gives me multiple Y axes only and not X.

Thanks.

Overlay Plot.
If your data looks like this:


x     y1     y2
1     10     20
2            22
3     15        
4     25     20
5            30

then in Overlay Plot put Y1 and Y2 in the Y box and X in the X box.

If your data looks like this:


x     y     attribute
1     10       a
2     20       b
3     12       a
4     15       a
5     35       b
6     45       b
7     20       a

then either use Tables > Split to reshape it like the previous data or use it as is in Overlay Plot with Y in the Y box, X in the X box and attribute in the Grouping box. When the plot shows, use the red triangle pull down to change the Overlay Plots item from "no overlay" to "overlay groups".

Are your multiple X axes really different, like time and temperature, or are they the same but with different values for each Y column? If the former I don't believe you can do it without scripting quite heavily. I'm having trouble visualizing why such a plot would be useful. If the latter it's pretty easy.

Hello,

I have the latter setup, I have X axis with different values for each Y column. Can you please explain how can we merge plots?

Thanks

Hello mpb,

My Data looks like this:

x1	y1	x2	y2
1	10	2	20
2		2.5	22
3	15	3	
4	25	4	20
5		4.5	
6		5	30

I have 2 X axis and 2 Y axis and I need to merge them all and sort data accordingly.
