I modified the code from one of the multiple axes plot examples that I found on the Internet. The plot is embedded in a graphicsView widget that I promoted to a PlotWidget. When I call showGrid for the p1 axis (as shown on line 21 in the code below). I end up with a grid for both p1 and p2 axes. I am sure there is a way to plot just the grid for p1. I've looked through all of the docs and posts and can't find anything about this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
