Re: [ferret_users] How can I plot over using PPL

[Domingos Urbano <dfurbano@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks all,
It helped a lot!
Exactly what I want to do. I didn't know this new command.
Cheers,
Domingos.

Hi,
    In case you are trying to make a plot with two different Y-axes
(left and right) and a common X-axis, use the method of two-viewports
shown below. Note that you can use /AXES qualifier instead of "ppl
axset", with new versions of Ferret.


   define axis/x=0:30:1 xax
   let var1 = SIN(x[gx=xax]/5)
   let var2 = COS(x[gx=xax]/5)+ 10

   define view/xlim=0:1/ylim=0:1 v1
   define view/xlim=0:1/ylim=0:1 v2

   set view v1 ; ppl axlabp -1,-1
      plot/nolab/axes=1,1,1,0 var1

   set view v2 ; ppl axlabp 0,1
      plot/color=2/axes=0,0,0,1/nolab var2
