How can I get multiple plots on an XY Graph?

[Matt Kay]

I am trying to create a force vs position graph that can compare multiple plots of data on the same graph. I cannot seem to get an XY graph to show more than one plot at a time.  I've tried using the 'merge singals' function but found that this can only be used with dynamic data. Is there a way to do this and XY graph?

Hi,

To get multiple plots on an xy graph, you wire in an array of xy clusters. The xy graph can take in either a single xy cluster or an array of clusters. It will plot multiple traces on a single xy graph if you wire in an array of xy clusters. This is also shown if press Ctrl-H to get the context help open and hover over the xy graph.

Hope that helps,

Attached is an example I made for someone else. It actually does a bit more than you need in that each time you press the new plot button a separate plot is created, but the important thing is the concepts behind it.

Note that the points sort of dance around the plot area because the X and Y values are derived from random number generators.
