second y-axis

[Karo Lina]

Hi all, 

I have two data sets and want to display the curves in one graph. The x-values of both curves are identical but the y-values are very different. So I would like to create a coordinate system with one y-axis at the left end of the x-axis (for the first curve) and a second y-axis with a different scaling at the right end of the x-axis (for the second curve). Is this possible with DISLIN?

Best Regards!

Hi,

this is easy to do. You can draw two axis systems at the same position. One for the left

y-axis and one for the right y-axis. For example:

        setgrf ("name", "name", "ticks", "none");  //defines lower x-, left y-axis and upper ticks

        graf (0., 10., 0., 2., 0., 100., 0., 20.);

        curve (...);                                                     // the curve for the left y-scaling

        endgrf ();

        setgrf ("none", "none", "none", "name");     // defines just the right y-axis

        graf (0., 10., 0., 2., 100., 200., 100., 20.);   // plots the right y-axis

        curve (...);                                                       // the curve for the right y-scaling

        endgrf ();

Of cource, you should give some information on your plot, which curve belongs to which

y-scaling.

With best regards,

Helmut
