[Matplotlib-users] Plotting with more than two y-axes (with twinx?)

[dodermat <dan...@gm...>]

Dear all

What I want to accomplish was produced two years ago in  a stackoverflow
snippet by Joe Kington
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7733693/matplotlib-overlay-plots-with-different-scales> 
, and shown in the first figure below. However, when I use his snippet in
matplotlib 1.3.x, I get an output where the third axis replaces the second
axis, and the blue dots are accordingly distributed in only the lower half
of the plot (see second figure below). I considered downdating to an older
version of matplotlib, but then I came across  a remark in the matplotlib
FAQ <http://matplotlib.org/faq/howto_faq.html#multiple-y-axis-scales>  .
According to this remark, such a feature for twinx is on the wish list and
thus not very likely to be available in an older version.

Can someone please explain the Kington magic to me?
