To modify the code just slightly from page 31 in my book:
curve1 = LoadData(1)
curve2 = Findgen(50)
curve2 = Sin(curve2/5)/Exp(curve2/50) * 15 + 15
Plot, curve1, XStyle=8, XTitle='Solid Line Axis', $
Position=[0.1, 0.15, 0.95, 0.9]
Axis, XAxis=1, XRange=[0,50], /Save, XTitle='Dashed Line Axis'
OPlot, curve2, LineStyle=2
The key is the SAVE keyword on the AXIS command. You want
to make sure that when you OPLOT the second curve that you
use the scaling parameters from the correct axis.
Cheers,
David
