    graphing items with different units on same graph

    Hi,
    I have 3 different things that I want to graph vs. time on the same graph. I wanted to do a line graph but I would have to have three different y-axes for each set of data. Is is possible to graph all three in an intelligent way on a line graph? Or is there another graph that would work better?

    Why not plot them all against the same axis?

    One possible approach would be to use a panel chart. Details of which can be found here

    If not you will need to provide more information about your data.

    I can't plot them all against the same y-axis because the data I'm plotting has different units.
