I have a feature request which would be nice to have if it is not too
difficult to implement:
It is possible to set the vertical axis for different variables but
not the order of the variables shown in the legend. I think, the order
of the variables plotted on a graph is currently determined by the ID#
of the variables.
As an example: Suppose one wants to plot money supply against a price
index. Bacause of the causality, it would make sense to have M1 as the
first variable and CPI as the second variable listed in the legend but
this may not be possible if CPI comes first in the varaibles list.
Best regards

I don't get your problem. If you want M1 on the y axis you do
plot(M1~CPI) and if you want CPI you do it with plot(CPI~M1). If the
data are in a dataframe named mydata: plot(CPI~M1,data=mydata)
So what is it what you want?

I am sorry. It seems I am overworked. I thought thats a mail to the
R-users list and was really wondering. Now I realize it was the gretl
list.
Sorry for that.

It is OK. I was plotting by selecting the variables and choosing time
series plot from the right click menu. I cannot control the order of
the variables by editing plot options this way. Sorry for not making
this clear. Your message made me remember it is indeed possible to
achive this using the gretl gnuplot command using the console,
however, it would be nice to be able to achieve this using the gui, if
it is not very difficult to implement that is.
Another little touch of polish would be in the "Label" tab in the plot
edit menu. If I choose "add" and do nothing (say move to another tab
or close the window) the empty "label 1" stays unless I remove it
manually.
Best regards

You can already do this via the gui: /View/Graph specified
vars/Time series plot. You get a selection dialog, and the order
in which you add variables is respected in the output.

Ahh, OK. I guess I am overworked as well. Thanks for reminding. How
about the adding label issue?
Best regards
