Using multiplot with splot

[WesM]

Hi

I am using multiplot mode to plot two surfaces on a single plot. The problem I am having
is that each plot uses a different origin and ranges. I would like the second plot to use
the ranges and origin of the first plot which are computed by autoscale. How can I do this?

[Thomas Sefzick]

use
set xrange [] writeback
set yrange [] writeback
set zrange [] writeback
and
set xrange restore
set yrange restore
set zrange restore

That's usually not the right approach.  You can just plot two surfaces
in one plot:

        splot 'data1', 'data2'

Thanks again Thomas

That works except that when I try to rotate the image using my mouse the first plot disappears. I have set multiplot mode.


use
set xrange [] writeback
set yrange [] writeback
set zrange [] writeback
and
set xrange restore
set yrange restore
set zrange restore

then you should follow the suggestion of "Hans-Bernhard Bröker-2":

> splot 'data1', 'data2'

and not use 'multiplot' mode.
