Joerg, One method is to use Frame -> True, and FrameTicks -> tick specification, and give your own specification for the ticks on the right hand side of the plot. (Lookup Ticks to see how to make these specifications.) You can use Automatic for the regular ticks and make a table for the right hand side. However, sometimes this is a lot of work, especially if you want both the major and minor ticks. The curve that goes with the right hand side will also have to be scaled to match the ticks. The Presentations package from my web site has CustomTicks routines that make it easy to produce any kind of tick scale that is a 1-1 mapping from the underlying plot coordinates, with linear or log ticks. It also makes it easy to combine curves from two or more plot types. (And many other features.) I think there is also a free TwoScalePlot package on the WRI MathSource that may also be useful - but I don't know much about it. David Park djmpark at comcast.net http://home.comcast.net/~djmpark/ From: Joerg [mailto:schaber at biologie.hu-berlin.de] Hi, I want to combine two 2-D plots into one. However, I want to have two different y-axes. One on the left and one two the right, with different ticklabels, respectively. How do I do that? I couln't find any example in the help files. Thanks, joerg
