hi everybody

i am more or less new to origin, but managed to understand the layer principles and all. there is, however, a problem i could not resolve yet.

i have concentrations of a substance on the y-axis. the x-axis is time. however, the temperature was not contant over time, as the stuff was heated. thus, there is another data set, which is temperature = f(time). basically, i can now plot y = concentrations = f1(time), or y = concentrations = f2(temperature). OR i could plot y1 = concentrations = f(time) and on a secondary y-axis y2 = temperature = f(time).

However, i would prefer to plot the concentrations as a function of time (which is x-axis), and then below that time-x-axis, i would like to have a second x-axis, in temperature. BUT as temperature was not a linear function of time, the scale of the time axis will be linear, but the scale of the temperature axis would be stretched.

is that possible at all, or is there at least a way how to do it? at least for the measuring points, i would like to have a tick on that temperature secondary-x-axis.

thanks a lot for your help!
