Hi,
I am trying to plot 2 plots on one page vertically. Each has a
different x-axis but they all have identical y-axis. Currently it
looks like:
________________________________
Y |
T | PLOT
i |
t | 1
l |
e |__________________________________
XTITLE1
_______________________________
Y |
T | PLOT
i |
t | 2
l |
e |_______________________________
XTITLE2
But I want it to look like:
___________________________
|
| PLOT
|
Y | 1
|
T |____________________________
I XTITLE1
T ___________________________
L |
E | PLOT
|
| 2
|
|____________________________
XTITLE2
I have tried the MULTIPLOT program listed here but it requires that
there be no labelling of the two x-axis... I need to be able to label
the x-axis separately. It is just the y-axis title that I want to
change. I want it to be centered between the two plots so it does not
get duplicated twice. Does anyone have any ideas?

Well, it is certainly not as elegant as writing the title out
by hand and re-scanning, but it will do in a pinch. :-)
Cheers,
David
