Hi, Yes, multiple data files can be plotted on the same chart. If you're using prefabs you can do this (2.30+).. See the section on "Overlaying plots from...
Hi again, Ploticus 2.30 date arithmetic package has a bug whereby day-of-week calculation is wrong. This causes plots that use omitweekends to omit the wrong...
I'm trying to create a graph of battery voltages that spans many days. I started with the 'hitcount' example because it had the xaxis that I wanted to use. ...
