Default Scientific charts: what is the best add-in or package for getting sane ones?

Jason -

I put together an example for you, available for download from
http://www.mikemiddleton.com (lower left corner of that web page).

It's an XY (Scatter) chart, using a dummy second data series for secondary
axes. You can select each chart object and see how things are formatted.

First, I would debate your use of "normal" scientific chart. In
a long career I never needed to use one such as you describe.


Ok I took your advice and checked out Psiplot just now. But the
samples at I saw on the company's webpage did not have tickmarks on the
top or right. It isn't clear to me that the program has this feature.
Cost isn't an issue to me.
