Stack Plots at Right

The Stack Plots at Right command enables stacking of Plot Windows to the right of the Image Window that created them. When enabled, new plot windows are generated as small windows in a cascading stack up to 10 plot windows tall and 3 stacks wide. If not enabled, Plot Windows are opened in the general cascading stack as for other view windows. This command operates from the Plot menu for Image Windows and also from the Image Plot Properties dialog.

This feature is enabled using the Stack Plots at Right command in the Plot menu for Image Windows.
This feature is disabled using the Stop Stacking Plots at Right command in the Plot menu for Image Windows.
Use the Reset Stacked Plot Origin command to reset the cascading Plot Window origin to the top of the Image Window.

NOTE:

When creating stacked plots, note that the Windows GUI shifts the keyboard focus from the Image Window to the Plot Window. To shift the keyboard focus back to the Image Window, click the mouse inside the Image Window.

Example

The images below compare the effects of the Stack Plots at Right option. The top picture shows it enabled, causing Plot Windows to stack along the right border of their parent Image Window. If disabled, then Plot Windows open like all other view windows which cascade down from the upper left. Each Image Window has its own stack starting at its right and parallel to its top border.
