2nd Y axis

Can Numbers 09 insert a second Y axis (or even a second X axis) as I need to plot 2 sets of data pertaining to one X axis. I've gone through the manual but couldn't find anything relevant but may have missed something.

Hi Schrodinger,
Your original question:
to plot 2 sets of data pertaining to one X axis.
This method does not add a 2nd Y axis, but it puts 2 sets of Y data on the one graph. It might be what you want.
The Table has a Header Row (for Labels X, Y1, Y2) but none of the data are in a Header Column (I think that is necessary for a scatter plot??)
Select the three Columns, choose Scatter from the Chart Button. Then with the scatter plot selected, click on the gear wheel at the top of the Table and choose Share X Values.
Regards,
Ian.

Legend, error bars, 2nd y axis etc

Hello all,
Measurement Studio is a powerful program. But it's graphing functions need improvement. As a scientific tool, for example, the lack of plotting error bars in CWGraph is unforgivable. And many other essential functions for producing decent graphs are missing. So I attempted to try to fill in some gaps. The attached program intends to do following:
1) Plots x- and y error bars.
2) Legends for data sets,
3) Graph saving,
4) Graph printing
Notes:
1)Error bars are not plotted symmetrically. They can be improved.
2)Legends can be improved by making them automatically located in the empty part of the plotting area. And the routine doesn't work well for the logarithmic scale.
3)Since the point sizes are tied to line size, it is impossible to use larger symbols without increasing the size of the lines!
4)y axis and the 2nd axis labels as rotated have terrible looking fonts.
5)When printing to a pdf file, filename can be automatically set to a default filename so that a dialog box can be avoided.
I hope the attached program is useful.
Sincerely,
Cem
P.S.
The program plots 5 data sets. 4 of which use left y-axis, the last one uses the right axis. Only y error bars are plotted. (x error bars optional). The legend text appears on the left upper corner. User can enable/disable legend, lines connecting data points, error bars, and grid lines. When log axis is chosen, the legend placement is screwed up.

Thanks for sharing this with us Girit. I'm sure this will help out alot of people on the forum.
For your legend, this document provides another way you might be able to create a legend and not have to deal with finding an empty place on the graph.
Thanks again

What would the equation be to scale a 2nd Y-axis to my first Y-axis?

I am using a 8757D scalar to collect 2 channel sweeps. The first channel has an arbitrary Scale, REF Position and REF Level, the 2nd channel has a differing Scale, REF Position and REF Level. I collect and plot channel 1data with no problem since it dictates the Y axis values. Now I want to collect the channel 2 data and Scale it to fit the channel 1 Y-Axis. Three factors are involved, Scaling of the channel 2 data, REF Position (0-8 on the screen, integers only) and REF Level (dB)
The equation i am currently using is: (Channel 2 Data) * (CH1 Scale/CH2 Scale) + (REF Level Channel 1 - REF Level Channel 2) * CH1 Scale/CH2 Scale + (CH2 REF Position - CH1 REF Position) * CH1 Scale
This works sometimes and other times it errs. I put an image of my test matrix for you to examine. I have wrestled with this for days and can't figure it out, I am posting here in the hopes that someone will see what I did wrong and help me out with it... the last row is the data from the scalar, the 2nd is my attempt to scale channel 2 data to the channel 1 Y-Axis. As you can see, it works 2 of 3 times, but when I reverse the active channel, the equation fails. Column 1 are Column 2's only difference is that I made channel 2 of the scalar analyzer the active channel...
The 1st LV Graph is when Channel 1 is active, as you can see the data plots fine, channel 2 is scaled to fit on channel 1's Y-Axis, Purple is Ch1 REF and Yellow is Ch2 REF
Next LV Graph is when Channel 2 is active, the 2 REF lines are correct, but the Channel 1 data (Green line) which should be at 0 dB (my excel spreadsheet says -30, but it should be 0, is at +10 dB and is hidden under the Yellow REF Line...
Don't understand the equation enough to see the error and after Numerous hours of staring at it, well, I have hit a dead end, so someone out there good in math, PLEASE shed some light on my error!
Thanks In advance
Jim

What Luis said: set the project to 4k or smaller .... whatever is good enough for the output you require. Editing in 5k already requires you to upscale the 4k footage.
The RED Raw settings have nothing to do with the scaling. They are meant to dial in white balance, color, saturation and other parameters.

So is this correct? Even though I'm viewing my reel as a Proxy for Playback, is it okay that my Project Properites video size is still 5K? Or should've that been changed to 1080p before I did any editing on this project? Is the 5K project setting slowing me down?
Wether the 5k project is slowing you down depends on the specs of your hardware. Do you intend the output to be 1080? Then your scaling problems are over.

MathScript plot, how do I specify 2nd Y axis maximum and minmum?

x = 0:0.01:20;
y1 = 200*exp(-0.05*x).*sin(x);
y2 = 0.8*exp(-0.5*x).*sin(10*x);
plotyy(x,y1,x,y2);
axis([0,20,-200,200])
above script plot successfully a graph with require left y axis from -200 to +200. However, how do I make the right y axis from -2 to +2?
Thank you in advance.

x = 0:0.01:20;
y1 = 200*exp(-0.05*x).*sin(x);
y2 = 0.8*exp(-0.5*x).*sin(10*x);
plotyy(x,y1,x,y2);
axis([0,20,-200,200]);
xlabel('Time (\musec)');
ylabel('Fast decay');
title('Multiple Decay Rates');
How do I write the 2nd Y title to 'Slow Decay'?

Chart with 2y axis (how)

I am interested in an making an XY scatter plot with time points as
the x axis, and with 2 different y axis.
As I mentioned, the x axis
will have the different time in min., that the data was collected, and
the 1 y axis would contain a particular measurement of the sample, and
the other (2nd) y axis would contain a different type of measurement
of the same sample. The problem is that I can't see how to do a 2 y
axis XY scatter plot.

Hi Peter,
This is the number one feature request for the JFreeChart project. It hasn't been implemented yet, but I will be working on it (I hope) during October. It is going to involve quite a few changes, so I'm not sure how long it will take.

Xml and cfchart

I have a cfchart with two series, one bar (total count for a
period) and one line (average count for a period) I want to add a
third series, anohter bar (total dollar for a period). The problem
is that the dollar amount greatly exceeds the other two series in
the y axis, makes them appear as if they did not exists at all.
So what I am doing now is using xml to create a second y axis
for the dollar amount, Here is what I have so far :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<frameChart is3d="false" >
<yAxis scaleMin="0" scaleMax="150" labelCount="10">
<labelStyle color="black" orientation="horizontal"/>
</yAxis>
<xAxis>
<labelStyle color="black" orientation="slanted"/>
</xAxis>
<elements place="Default" shape="bar"
drawShadow="false">
<series index="2" shape="bar" isSecondAxis="true"/>
</elements>
</frameChart>
Here are the problems I am running into :
the bar for the dollar amount is stacked on top of the bar
for the count, I want them side by side.
The series for the line (average count) is ok but it is now
behind the bars, it used to be in front of the bars.
The scale for the original y axis is now in decimals, 10,
12.5, 16.8...etc, it used to be just whole numbers
The border around the chart and the 2nd y axis is blue, I do
not know how to make it black
Is there a way to display the actual value/datapoint of the
dollar only, on top of the bar ?
Anyone with xml experience that can help ? also, what is a
good resource on the net that will have all the tags I am looking
for ? right now, I am just getting them piece by piece and putting
it together.

start webcharts3d, which comes with cf (can be found in:
{cf_install_dir}\charting\webcharts3d.bat)
enter some sample values to generate the chart you want.
change various options to make it look the way you want.
view the chart's XML, copy/save it and use it in your real
chart.

Smooth Sinusoidal Motion without Gearing, Onboard Buffer/Contouring?

Hello,
My end goal is to have a stepper motor (200 steps/rotation) produce a smooth sinusoidal motion at 1Hz with an amplitude of 200-500 steps. Everything I've read so far has lead me to believe that this is impossible given the 7330 Motion Controller.
My best results were produced when an array of points were created, and used to change the Target Position inside a While Loop. The frequency was varied by changing number of points in the array that represent a complete cycle (an array of 32 data points results in a higher frequency than an array of 64 data points). However, this was not acceptable as the motion at 1Hz was not smooth. I've tried playing around with acceleration, deceleration, velocity, and S-curve Time, but to no avail.
I've thought about using the built in "Load Circular Arc" VI, and just assigning the 2nd motor axis as a dummy output, but this is not a good solution as I will eventually be using all 4 axis of the Motor Drive.
My question: Is it indeed impossible to produce a smooth sinusoidal motion of 1Hz with a 7330 Motion Controller? I realize "smooth" is objective, but the motion produced by the "Load Circular Arc" VI is "smooth" enough.
Equipment/Software:
PCI 7330 Motion controller
MID-7604 Motor Drive
LabView 2009
Any information towards this matter is greatly appreciated. Thank you,
Nick
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Nick,
as it looks like you have already found all possible solutions for your task. In fact arc moves with a dummy axis would be the only reliable solution for your setup. If you can't afford to waste an axis, the only alternative solution is to switch to a 7344, which supports contouring.
Please note, that the 7330 is our low cost solution for basic motion control tasks with stepper motors. Advanced trajectories are not within the scope of this product, so if this is a requirement, please contact your local NI branch. Depending if you have just recently purchased the 7330 or not, they might be able to offer you a hardware upgrade to the 7340.
Kind regards,

Multiple charts on one page - Y-Axis produces wierd format on 2nd chart

Hello,
I have found something strange while using CR 2011.
1. i create a bar chart showing Sales Revenue vs GL Revenue. The chart is horizontal. The scale shows 4.5 m, 6.5 m, 7.5 m etc
2. i add a second chart to the page, no matter what type of bar chart, the Y axis scale on the first chart changes to 450m, 650m, 750m...???
for the life of me i cannot fix it, unless i make the charts in two seperate files..
any ideas?

hello,
what is most likely happening is that the record set being returned changes when the 2nd chart is added.
this would be because chart 2 contains fields from one or more tables that are not referenced by chart 1. by adding chart 2, you then add a new set of fields and tables to the sql query and thus the total data set on the report changes.
a solution would be to use a subreport as it sounds like you've already done.

Financial Reporting Studio - Chart 2nd Axis Title

I have a Financial Reporting Studio (9.3.1) report including a chart (combo) and have "checked" secondary axis and subsequently set a secondary axis title. Upon opening the report the secondary axis title does not show. The font color is black and the font angle is set to 0. Is this a bug or am I missing setting a property or something? If this is a bug is there a feasible workaround? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

This has turned out to be a rather obscure 'problem or feature'. Primary axis titles can include multiple words, single words or special characters and do not require single quotes around the title. Secondary axis title on the other hand require single quotes around the string whether it is a single word, multiple words or contains special characters. This is not contained in the Financial Reporting Studio documentation.

Can't Title 2nd Axis on Graph

Post Author: jlspublic
CA Forum: General
I have a graph with two Y axes. On the Chart Options dialog, Titles tab, whatever I enter in the Data2 Title box is discarded when I click OK. Based on posts to the old Forums, this appears to be a bug that has been around since at least 2002. Anyone have any idea how to get this to work properly? Any workarounds? I am using CR XI Developer (version 11.5.0.313).-JLS

first create the directory ocfs in /mnt and then mount, it will get mounted
give the following command after having created the directory
mount -t ocfs2 -o datavolume,nointr /dev/sdb1 /mnt/ocfs
it will work defenitely!

How to create multi axis graph with 2 on change of fields and 2 values

Hi all,
i am working for a Semi conductor company and I have been madated to evaluate Crystal report 2008 in order to include it in our legacy software.
So I have tested the soft and it seems to fit to our need.
But I have a question...
Here is a scenario i want to create in crystal but I have an error message..
Can you please tell me if twant I want to achieve is feasisible...and if so how ?
Thank you
I would like to create a percent bar chart that contains 2 on change of fields and 2 show values.
The idea behind in then to have a mutli axis chart in order to print as a line the second values.
So the first values will be my bar chart in percentage and the second value will be a sum.
Hope my description is cleat...
Thank's in advance for your support...
Have a good day

There are different ways to achieve that. The simplest i could recall is to have 2 different charts, 1st bar chart and 2nd a line chart, lay one over the other and enable the transparency on the chart which on Top ( say Line ). also, crystal will allow you to control axes etc and make them transparent..

How can I create manual Y-axis labels in a multiple system report?

A similar question was asked by Lutz1410 on 3/30/07, but it doesn't seem that this was finally resolved. I'll try to ask the question in a different way.
I created a graph in View with 3 axis systems in the "multiple systems" mode, then transferred this to Report. I would like to apply manual scaling and text to each of the 3 axis systems, however if I change either of these parameters they are applied to all 3 Y-axes. In other words, I end up with 3 axes having exactly the same text labels and scaling.
1. For the axis text, is there a delimiter that can be used in the axis text field to tell Report that the first text value is for the first Y-axis, the 2nd value is for the next axis, etc?
2. For the scaling, is it possible to have separate scales for each Y-axis?
Of course, a workaround is to create 3 independent graphs in Report, but this is less convenient.
Thank you,
Craig

Hi Craig,
If you want to apply different manual scaling parameters to each of the stacked Y axes, then you need to use 3 separate Y axes. If you want to display a curve-specific text to each of the stacked graphs, this you can do with a DIAdem expression:
@ChnName(CCN)@@         channel name of each curve
@ChnDim(CCN)@@            channel unit of each curve
@ChnComment(CCN)@@   channel description of each curve
The corresponding value for each curve will automatically display at the correct vertical spot next to its curve.

Flex chart x-axis data spacing

hello
i am using flex chart line series and column series. i want
to display 100 data points, with different dates along the x-axis,
but i don't want all 100 points to be displayed at the same time as
the x-axis dates will not be readable. i want to have a fixed space
between each x-axis point and the user then scrolls along the
chart.
i read the API but do not see any way to add the x-axis
spacing?
also how i do put more data information, with each data point
if a mouse if placed over it, not just the X & Y data points.
thank you for any assistance.

you mentioned about using min/max values on the x-axis. That

I really want to to show 90days of data data, with say 30
