GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 526112
Charting additional Y-Axises use scaling of first Y-Axis
Last modified: 2008-04-04 13:06:20 UTC
Hi, I'm the Fedora maintainer of gnumeric, I'm relaying this bug from Fedora's bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=288701 --- Description of problem: I'm trying chart two properties gas price and miles/gallon, all versus the date. The two gas prices share the same Y scaling. The third is scaled on the left side of the chart (correctly). The plotting of the points for the third is way off the chart (I added a zero entry to show a known point with a line linking). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnumeric-1.6.3-11.fc8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. See attached gnumeric file 2. See properties for chart: Graph->Chart1->Y-Axis3 (Scale tab) 3. Data is in Graph->Chart1->PlotXY1->Mi/Gal (Data tab) Actual results: The zero point is plotted (orange triangle), following points are off the top of the chart. Expected results: All data points plotted Example attachment: Gnumeric file of gas prices and mi/gal plotted versus date If I change the maximum scaling of the Y-Axis1 from 4 to 40, the scaling for the other two Y-Axises also changes and Y-Axis3 data points show up.

The sample file is incorrect. One XY plot does only have one x axis and one y axis. If you want several y axes, you have to add a plot to the same chart, with a different axis set. I'm attaching a sample file that shows the correct way to obtain what you want (saved using gnumeric 1.8.x, I'm not sure it will open correctly using gnumeric 1.6.x).
