plot scale association

Solved!
Go to solution

is this possible:

 

I have a graph, it has multiple y-scales.... several on the left side of the graph and several on the right, I display only 2 at a time, it's basically a dual y-scale plot with selectable y-scales... I do this using property nodes and it works great.  I have drop down menus with different plots, and these plots will pop up on the graph when selected.... ok here's my problem/question

 

is there a way to associate a plot with more than one y-scale? 

 

I need to associate plots with 2 y-scales, one on the left and one on the right side of my plots

 

reason is because it's basically a custom graph with 2 drop down menus, the drop down menus has groups of plots in it... each of the 2 drop down menus contains the smae plots and each is associated with either the right side y-scales or left side y-scales... this makes it possible for various different combinations of plot vs plot on the graph... but not being able to associate a plot with both sides limits me

 

right now I can do

plot1 vs plot2

plot3 vs plot4

 

but can't do

 

plot1 vs plot3.... because I can't associate plot3 with y-scales on both sides of the graph

 

I hope this makes sense,

 

much thanks!

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking, but all of the statements below are true. Do they answer your question?

 

 

  1. A plot must always be linked to exactly one scale
  2. Many plots can be linked to one scale
  3. One plot cannot be linked to more than one scale
  4. A plot can be visible while it's scale is invisible
  5. A plot can be invisible while it's scale is visible
  6. You can always have extra scales that are not linked to any plots
