Following the request “If you have any last minute issues/requests/additions” here http://gnuplot.10905.n7.nabble.com/Gnuplot-version-5-release-candidate-td18424.html. I know I am late but have only just seen the above message.

One feature I asked for earlier this year is being able to replot a 2D multiplot graph so that the Y axis autoscales with the largest magnitude of any of the datasets.

Here is my original request :
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.graphics.apps.gnuplot/Yt8Ivv1Lm5I

In summary :
I have been trying to use multiplot to display multiple 2D data sets
piped from an external program. Ideally I would like to be able to use
autoscale/replot so that all of the graphs can be scaled according to
the largest magnitude of any of the datasets.

I know this request was originally dismissed by Hans-Bernhard but this is something I have often done with other graphing packages and when I searched for a Gnuplot solution to this functionality I found this this is quite a common request from other users.

Thanks very much for your consideration.

    Sorry, but the program is not designed in such a way that it is possible to recreate a multiplot in a single command. The only state information available is for the most recent plot. So this is just not possible.
