Default how to plot a chart with 3 axes?

More than just looking nice, the ability to have multiple axes can be
viewed as essential in some professions, such as engineering.
Multiple Y axes can provide more than a "magnitude" comparison by
actually aid in solving problems quickly by visual comparison. For
example, comparisons of temperatures, pressures and other (transient)
data can directly isolate issues in engine manufacturing and testing.
This includes stalls, sensor problems etc...

Therefore, some people can find multiple axes plots to be not only
clear and
accessible, but essential.

If I follow, you want the normal x-axis and two verticaly-axes, the
secondaryy-axis on the right of your chart.


Rt-click your second series and Select Object (or double click the
series),
select the 'Axis' tab and select the Secondary Axis option.

Hello, i have 3 columns and i want to have the normalyand x axis,
but on the other side of the plot
i'd like to have also a z axis.
For example i want to plot a curve that is a function of x:y=f(x) and
Z=g(x) on the same plot and haveyon one side and z on the other
side.


Thanks, contact me also via email
