Double-Y Axis Graph

Double-Y Graph Example

This plot consists of two superimposed layers (or panels). The X axis for both layers are linked in a 1-to-1 relationship while the Y axes are independent. This allows the Y axis scales for each layer to vary while the X axis scales remain identical for both layers.

When plotting data into a Double-Y plot, the default plot type is Line + Symbol. Click on one of the links below to learn more about the properties that can be edited for this graph type.
