Hi Eric, I don't believe anyone has yet extended org-plot to support multiple independent variable columns. Since stating work on Org-babel [1], I know use gnuplot source-code blocks for all of my plotting needs, as they provide a more direct interface into gnuplot. For example the following should provide the functionality your are looking for...
#+tblname: my-table | 1 | 2 | 1.5 | 3 | | 2 | 4 | 3 | 9 | | ... | | | | #+begin_src gnuplot :var data=my-table plot data using 1:2, data using 3:4 #+end_src Cheers -- Eric Eric S Fraga <ucec...@ucl.ac.uk> writes: > Back in September, zwz asked about getting multiple graphs on a plot > from a table: > > http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2009-09/msg00354.html > > There appears to be no answer to that question.
