You have stated correctly what I want to do, but I tried running your code and it also just gives me the lines and not the markers.
I was playing around with regular plots (not multiplots) and managed to do what I need by means of the sub command. I can get the two plots with both lines and markers. However I am still curious why I can not get it work using multiplot. Here is the code I got to work using sub instead of multiplot: load 'statfns' load 'plot' data=: ?5 50$100 xbar=: mean data range=: (max data) - min data x=: i. #xbar pd 'reset' pd 'new' pd 'sub 15 15 _15x _15x' pd 'sub 3 2,8' pd 'backcolor 222 222 206' pd 'framebackcolor white' pd 'title Xbar/R Control Chart' pd 'type marker;color red;pensize 2' pd x;xbar pd 'type line;color blue;pensize 1' pd x;xbar pd 'new' pd 'backcolor 222 222 206' pd 'framebackcolor white' pd 'type marker;color red;pensize 2' pd x;range pd 'type line;color blue;pensize 1' pd x;range NB.pd (<'type marker;color red;pensize 2'),.(<<xbar) ,:<<range pd 'show' -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sherlock, Ric Sent: Sunday, June 24, 2007 6:28 PM To: Programming forum Subject: RE: [Jprogramming] Problem with MultiPlot On 6/24/07, Ed Cox <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Any thoughts on this behavior? > Ed, If I understand correctly you are wanting the xbar and the range on different plots with lines and markers for each, but the line and marker should be different colors? If so then this will do it. If not perhaps you can show us what you want in two single plots? I agree that backcolor doesn't seem to do anything. load 'statfns plot' data=: ?5 50$100 xbar=: mean data range=: (max data) - min data pd 'reset' pd 'multi 3 2,6' pd 'backcolor 222 222 206' pd 'title Xbar/R Control Chart' pd 'xgroup 0 ' pd 'ygroup 0 1 ' one=:(('type line;color blue');xbar),:('type marker;color red;pensize 2');xbar two=:(('type line;color magenta');range),:('type marker;color green;pensize 2');range pd one;<two pd 'show' ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm No virus found in this incoming message.
