I know I could find the answer to this if I looked hard enough through
the Help and/or Manual, but I am certain one of the experts out there
will have the solution immediately.
I want to construct some plots and then display them combined on one
graph. The Plot[] for each individual plot is fairly lengthy and I was
hoping to save some space by replacing the "DisplayFunction->Identity"
with a single word like "nodisp". In the final Show[] I would then
turn the display back on with the
usual "DisplayFunction>$DisplayFunction" (maybe even equate it with a
single term like "disp").
Here is a simplified example of what I quickly tried without success
nodisp = DisplayFunction -> Identity
graph1 = Plot[Sin[2 Pi x],{x,0,2},nodisp] Error messages show up
graph2 = Plot[Sin[4 Pi x],{x,0,2},nodisp]
Show[{plot1,plot2},DisplayFunction -> $DisplayFunction]
I realize I could use SetOptions[] to temporarily turn off and turn on
display, but defining nodisp seems more natural and intuitive to me.
