Multi Y axis XY graphs

I know that I can Have multi plots on XY but I can not find a way to have a single X axis many XY axis graph without respecifying the X axis, this is very memory and process intensive.

I would like to build an array of clusters where each cluster is a time and several variables to have an easy way to make this type of graph.

An example is an application where I had a reactor where the history was build at uneven time samples (1-5 seconds between for several days) there were 50 process variables, I would have like to build a XY graph and displayed this easily but endeded up with an array of clusters of XY arrays- not too nice.

Why isnt this represented as a single array of records (Time and vaiables) this maps to how data is sampled in the reactor.

 

Can this already be done?

This idea (http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Simple-chart-with-time-as-X-Axis/idi-p/1252436) shows that having uneven time samples is possible.

Didn't realise there is a simple solution as referred to by G-Money.

 

 

Question: how can it be done if one wants a relative time scale, say X in seconds starting at 0 seconds (the start of your experiment)?

I mean a solution without having to bother with storing/managing history data yourself.

(I know the solution when using shift registers and an XY graph, but that's not what I mean).
