Removing Empty Figure Portions

I often want to graph a number of factors in a single figure but regularly run into a situation were I have tested two variables or used diferent assays and introduce a significant amount of whitespace into a figure that is representing. Is there a way to selectively remove portions of a graph? 

As an example in this figure I tested multiple cell lines using GFP and I want to compare to results I have generated with another assay but by doing so I create a ton of white space.

Re: Removing Empty Figure Portions

You would have to remove those columns from Y-axis to remove them from the graph. Other option could be to stack your data and then plot it slightly differently.

Hi @SigFigs

 

To add on to @jthi 's comment - stacking the data and using a Local Data Filter on the graph will help you remove the variable causing the white space.

 

Thanks,

Ben
