Secondary x-axis in Graph Builder

I would like to plot two overlayed graphs in the Graph Builder using individual, overlayed x-axes. This would be doable, if I could choose a secondary x-axis, just like I can choose a secondary y-axis. See How do I make a graph with secondary x-axis?

I have a script that kind of does this, Multiple Y-Axis Graphs

This would be good to have indeed. Excel can do it, so why not JMP??

@bobmorrane In graph builder, put both variables on the Y axis, then right click and choose Move Right.

use cases:

- 1/T [K] + T[°C]
- wavelength in nm  + wavelength in 1/cm
- deviation in % + factors of sigma:

Do you know how many seconds add up to one month?
No need to remember - with a combined time scale like this one:

One can create such a plot by using the functionality for the Y axis, and then rotate the graph by 90°. (doesn't feel like "JMP" - but generates the plot. Just the final Y axis looks strange).
