To select and store axes pairs for scatter plots, proceed as follows.

  1. In the scatter plot window, select View Select Axes.

    The "Select Axes" window opens.

    2. In the "X-Axis" list, select one or more inputs to be used as X axis for a 2D plot.

    3. In the "Y-Axis" list, select one or more inputs to be used as Y axis for a 2D plot.

    4. Click on Select.

      Combinations of each selected X axis with each selected Y axis are added to the "Show Y vs X" list (see the Closedexample).

    The axes pairs can later be reloaded (Load Axes Setup).
