Show multiple scales on the value axis

You can configure the chart to show multiple value scales. For multiple scales, only the minimum and maximum values are shown on the value axis. The scale label colors match the pen colors of the corresponding tags. The values of hidden tags are not shown.

To show multiple scales

• From the View menu, in the Scale group, select Multiple.

How a chart looks when multiple scales are applied depends on the number of tags in the chart and whether the chart is in stacked mode. When stacked mode is applied, there is no difference between using single scale or multiple scales.

The following chart includes multiple tags and is configured to use multiple scales. Stacked mode is not applied. The top and bottom labels show the scale for the first tag in the Tag List that is included in the chart. For the second tag in the Tag List, the scale labels are shown as second from the top and second from the bottom. As you add tags to the chart, the addition of scale labels continues to progress inward toward the middle of the chart. If there is not enough space on the chart to show all of the scale labels, then the innermost values are not shown.
