X Mapping

Step 2

Choose X mapping

Shared X uses one X column for multiple Y columns. Paired X-Y is for datasets where each series has its own X column.

Step 3

Map X and value columns

Choose the X column and one or more Y value columns. Add error bars if your data includes them.

X Column
Vd (V) · X
Value Columns

Right Y creates a Y2 axis when the figure is created.

Step 4

Assign left and right Y axes

Move series that need a secondary scale to Right Y. Right Y creates a Y2 axis when the figure is created; then refine lines, colors, axes, and legends.

Click Create Figure when everything is ready.
