You can put plots wherever you like on a page by
positioning them with the POSITION keyword. You
will also have to use the NOERASE keyword for all
but the first plot.

An easy, but limited, way it can be done is with layout:
p1=plot(dindgen(100),layout=[1,4,1])
p2=plot(2*dindgen(100),layout=[1,4,2],/current)
p3=plot(3*dindgen(100),layout=[1,2,2],/current)
A more flexible way is setting the positions directly:
p1=plot(dindgen(100),position=[0.1,0.4,0.9,0.9])
p2=plot(2*dindgen(100),position=[0.1,0.1,0.9,0.3],/current)

Hi Paulo,
thanks for your fast reply.

Yep, this is not exactly what I would need: my plots have different
axes, and I would need a space in between..

Could you please detail this? My understanding is that by setting !
P.Multi, one can only have plots of the same size.
Are you saying that there is a fonctionality (shame on me, but I
ignore its existence) allowing to play with the size of the plots ?

Aha, that was the trick. Thank you so much, worked perfectly.
P.S. wow, the answer to the question, that turned out to be a basic
one, by Fanning itself ..
