Hi Guys,

I've hit a bit of a problem with plotting multiple sets of data on the same graph, hoping you could help! I have a set of data for the time it takes for an ultrasound wave to propagate through a certain thickness of composite material. Obviously the gradient of the produced line will give me the speed (which I want). Ideally I'd like to plot two/three lines on the same graph to save space (I have 54 sets of data), but struggling to do so.

My data looks like so:

Ideally I'd like to plot the distance against time values for each coordinate for each material (so basically three seperate lines on each graph). I can do it if each of the t values (my x axis) were the same, but obviously they aren't as the triggers happen at different times. In a way I guess the x axis has to be independent of my data?

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Shawshank.

Hi, Will

You can make your data like the screenshot below (I use your Squra Brass data for example) and highlight both col(C) and col(E) and right click, select "Set as: X".
Then highlight all columns and plot a line plot.

Hope this would help.

Thanks,
Zheng
