Share plots between panels in a stacked plot

Hello,

 

I am using a stacked plot (chart) for presenting incoming experimental and predicted data. I would like to group multiple plots within one panel. Say I have 4 sets of data (2 x experimental + 2 x predicted). In a stacked plot LV automatically creates 4 panels. However, I would like to have only two panels, each showing 1 experimental and 1 predicted data set. Is that possible?

 

Thanks!

Hi ture,

 

No.

 

But you could create two charts, place them next to each other on the front panel and wire two plots to each of them…

Best regards,

Thanks for the quick answer.

 

That is too bad. I do like stacked plots because they are very compact and all panels share one common x-axis, which makes life in some cases easier (e.g. when programmatically clearing the charts).

Hi Ture,

You can hide all unneeded things for 2nd chart…

Hide the x axis and set it using property nodes.

React on events of the 1st chart…
