Mathcad Prime 2.0 2D matrix plots?

I've just had a quick look at Prof Birkeland's M15 Programming tutorial (http://communities.ptc.com/docs/DOC-3454) and, out of idle curiosity, wondered what a couple of the 2D plot exercises would look like in Prime Express. However, whereas Mathcad <=15 will cheefully plot all the columns of a matrix, Prime wouldn't; a brief glance at Prime's Help confirms that an XY Plot will only plot the first column, rather than it just being an Express limitation. Is there another way of doing this in Prime? Or is it planned for a later release?

Just read the Prime2 Migration Guide and there is no workaround necessary:

Click on graph, choose ribbon "plots", "Change Type", "Waterfall Trace"

Thats interesting, I wasn't aware of that limitation.

A workaround could be something like the following

Thanks, Werner. Now that you've mentioned it, dim, shadowy memories are attempting to surface ...
