Plot 2 different X and Ys over each other.

Hey Folks,

Im trying to overlay 2 different x and Y coordinates over each other.

one has 109pts and the other has 25pts.

I am using the scatter plot matrix but it doesn't look so tidy or clear.

Is there an easier way to graph this so I can see where the 27pts are on the 109pt map?

I suggest you use Graph Builder

Yes I was able to make the X/Y1 and X1/Y transparent so works perfect now. Thanks

Could something like this be helpful?

First I created new column (Label) and added 109pts values for the coordinates which have more values. They I copy-pasted X1 and Y1 to X and Y and gave them label 25pts.You could make the points more visible by changing coloring and markers

 

Data table attached.

Also when data looks like this:

In my opinion this would indicate that the first 25 rows of parts/ids/something have two sets of coordinates X/Y and X1/Y1 and the rest only has one set. If this is not the case I would concatenate the data into one column of coordinates and add some sort of labeling. BUT if the two sets of coordinates are there on purpose for the first 25 rows, just using labeling wouldn't most likely be enough and I would suggest also adding some sort of ID (in this case it could be row number if there is nothing else) to allow you to see which labels have two sets (data table x_y_label_id.jmp has label column and row column as id).
