Hi all,
I have question pertaining to a 'would like to have - I'm sure IDL
does it somehow' plot format.
I would like to plot 2 plots side by side (I can do this).
The first is Plot, x, y. The second is a histogram of number of
samples vs. y which I would like to rotate so that the y axes of both
plots are aligned.
I'm currently doing:
!P.MULTI=[0,2,1]
set_plot, 'ps'
DEVICE,FILENAME='plot.ps',/landscape, XSIZE=24.0, YSIZE=10.0, /cm
T3D, /RESET, TRANS=[0.0, -1.0, 0.0], ROT=[0,0,90] ; translation
and ;counterclockwise rotation about the z axis
plot,x, y
HIST_PLOT, y ; (Thank-you, Liam - a lifesaver)
(Within which:
plot, x,y, /T3D)
But my plot rotates correctly but looks very squashed and elongated,
yet I've not touched the dimensions of the plot (to my knowledge).
Please help!
Thanks,
Hazel
