[scilab-Users] Re: Re: plotting two y-axes, lines and bars in one plot

[Eric Dubois]

You cannot easily draw with pltseries0 the axis on the upper frame while
reversing the series. I think it can nevertheless be done with Scilab
graphics, since with Scilab function drawaxis, you can choose the location
of the axis. Perhaps someone in Scilab team can provide hints on how to do
that easily.

With respect to the dates, they can be entered as the 4th option in
pltseries0. For instance:
--> pltseries0([mat(:,2),mat(:,3)],[],'example',['Jan83' 'Feb83' 'Mar83'
'Apr83'],1,"yaxis=[1 2]", "bars=[0 1]","reverse=
 0 1]')

Note that the x-ticks are passed in pltseries0 to drawaxis trough the option
'val=xscale0' where xscale0 ['Jan83' 'Feb83' 'Mar83' 'Apr83'] and this how
you can manage non-standard axes.

Hope it will help.

Eric.
