Hi,
I got a graph with two y-axis. When I activate the gridlines of both layers, the graph becomes slightly confusing. Is it therefore possible to activate the gridlines of just one layer and force the y-axis of the second layer to perform the labeling of the graph aligned to the gridlines of the first layer?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Best regards

Hi,
I guess you want to show grid lines only on layer 2 corresponding to y-axis of layer 2.
Here is one option: double click on y-axis of layer 2 to open axis dialog, and select grid lines. It should turn on grid lines only for layer 2.
Hope it can help!
Regards,
Meili

hi meili,
thanks for your quick help, but i think i explained it the wrong way. i got a graph (please see graph 1 below) with two y axis. when i activate the gridlines of layer 2, the graph becomes quite confusing (please see graph 2). I have to set the y axis range of layer 2 manually in order to get the y axis scale aligned to the gridlines of layer 1 (please see graph 3). Is there a way to do this automatically?
Thanks a lot in advance
Best regards

Hi,
Thanks for your image.
You might try some the following script to auto align y-axis.
// Make layer 1 active and get the from and to y values
page.active=1;
yy1=y1; yy2=y2;
// Make layer 2 active and get the from y value
page.active=2;
yy3=y1;
// Compute the new to y value
yy4=yy3+yy3*(yy2-yy1)/yy1;
// Set the new to y value
y2=yy4;
Please refer to this previous post as well. That's where the script is found.

Let me know if it works,
