Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 8.1
Operating System: xp

Hello,

Is it possible for one to plot a graph that has multiple data plots on their own individually scaled axes all on one graph?

My problem is that I have many series of data, but when one has much larger values than the rest, and the entire graph scales to the large one, dwarfing the others.

What is the best way to approach this problem?


Once again, if you do not understand what I am trying to ask, please tell me how I can show you my screen shot (e-mail, or reduce file size somehow).

Thank you.

I found out that one can use the Double-Y axis feature, but I was wondering if there can be multiple axes, not just two. Also, is there any way to control what is plotted on each axis of the Double-Y? For instance, if I have 5 data series plotted and only one is out of range of the others, can I plot that one on one of the y-axes and the rest on the other?

Dear Basheer,

The latest Origin 8.5.1 has multiple-Y Axes graphing which allows you to specify number of Y axes at let and at right. Also, it includes 3Y's and 4Y's built-in graph types. If you want to see how it works, please try the evaluation version of Origin 8.5.1.

Regarding multiple datasets at either layer in the Double-Y graph, you can open the "Plot Setup" dialog ("Graph: Plot Setup" menu), and you can add them to the specified layer.

I have access to 8.5.1 and I found the multiple axes feature quite useful. Thank you.
