Adding third, forth,... Y-axis

Dear David,

I would like very much that the next version of Dplot will support more than 2 Y axis, since we often want to show time history of different measured signals (temperature, pressure, pressure drop, concentration…) on the same plot. I think that you could easily add this option through the call to modified MultipleYAxes(type, A,B).

For example:
type=3 A=1 B =2 add the second Y axis on the right side with outer thick marks
type=3 A=1 B =3 add the third Y axis on the right side with inner thick marks
type=3 A=2 B =3 add the fourth Y axis on the left side with inner thick marks
type=3 A=2 B =2 the first default Y axis on the left side with outer thick marks

type=3 A=3 B =2 add the fifth Y axis on the right side with outer thick marks
type=3 A=3 B =3 add the sixth Y axis on the right side with inner thick marks

type=3 A=4 B =2 add the seventh Y axis on the left side with outer thick marks
type=3 A=4 B =3 add the eight Y axis on the left side with inner thick marks

Y-axes from 5th on should be appropriately displaced from the previous Y-axes to prevent overlapping.

Gorazd,
Thanks for your input. Some variation on your suggestion will definitely be added soon. I can't promise that it will be in the next release, but it won't be too terribly long.

This is really important for me, has any work been done in this area? I am just looking at DPlot but it seems like it'll work for me.

I design battery chargers and I need to plot voltages, currents and temperatures at several different points in my circuit. I want to be able to display them all with appropriate Y-axes (They will have different scales).

Thanks for the super application!

David,
I'm working on it, but not ready to promise a release date yet.
