Graph with more than one independent variable

Hello everyone!

Is there anyone who can tell me how do I add a second variable on the abscissa axis of a 2D graph in Mathcad PRIME 3.1? In the guide I found a chart with two independent variables, but I do not find the procedure to do this.

Thanks much.

Put the cursor somewhere in the first axis label, then on the ribbon under "Plots" click on "Add Trace".

If you don't like the idea to have to use the menu for this task, you could also press "Shift-Enter" to add a new trace in either the abscissa or the ordinate. If the cursor is to the right of the old abscissa entry, you get a new placeholder below it, otherwise above.

This is at least as convenient if nor better than having to type the comma as we are used from Mathcad 15 and below.

Hmm - is it really me writing that line of praise for Prime? It must be Halloween. I guess!
