better handling of multiple data series in xy chart
Last modified: 2013-02-24 21:19:44 UTC
It is not clear when creating an XY chart what sets of values are being used for the various x and y values. The way it seems to be working for me, it uses the first selected column as the x-values, and all the following columns it interprets as sets of y-values. The data that I have is several different series of both x and y coordinates, so it is currently impossible for me to plot all the series together on the same graph. If it is possible, and I just don't understand how it should be done, then an explanation should be added to the help files. I hate to have to revert to MS excell to do the type of graph that I want.

Hi umichlinux, this is the x-th duplicate of the very same request ... Please see issue 3997. There, jumbo444 describes the current solution. Here in short: Print the data series' below each other, not beside each other. x1| y1 | x1| y1 | x2| | y2 x2| | y2 *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 3997 ***
