Plot area bounds for a stacked waveform (datatype) chart

I have a chart with an array of waveform datatype. This offers the option to stack plots.

 

I would like to programmatically control the position of the plot areas, but I can't seem to get it to work. I can set the size of the plot areas (width and height) individually, but I cannot set the vertical or horizontal position of the top-left corner at all.

 

Is there a way to do this?

 

There is a "Plot Area Bounds" which is available as a Write node, but as far as I can tell, it does nothing.

Hi,

I think the attached image from Context Help will be self-explanatory why you cannot change the Plot Area Bounds for a chart. Idk why they  have the write node at all !!

You can however use a Mixed Signal Graph if it suits your purpose. I saw that it allows this customization pro grammatically using the Plot bounds property. Just that the bounds will be changed uniformly for all plots. As far as I saw individual bounds cannot be set(even if you define the Active Plot).

Hope this helps.
