Inverting the > PlotRange of the axis from e.g.{-100,100} to {100,-100} does not help. Here is an example of the type of thing you want to do: f[x_]:=x^3; Plot[f[-x],{x,-1,1},PlotRange->All,Ticks->{Table[{-x,x},{x,-1,1}],Automatic} ]; This plots the function x^3 for x in the range [-1,1], starting at the right hand side of the page. The Ticks option allows you to annotate your axes any way that you please. I have overridden the x ticks as appropriate in this case, but I have left the y ticks set to Automatic. -- Stephen P Luttrell Signal Processing and Imagery Department DERA Malvern, St.Andrew's Road Malvern, United Kingdom, WR14 3PS +44 (0)1684 894046 (tel) +44 (0)1684 894384 (fax) luttrell at signal.dera.gov.uk (email)
