    <p>I want to place several plots with <a href="http://www.gnuplot.info" rel="nofollow noreferrer">gnuplot</a> in following way:</p> <pre><code> +------------------------+ |plot1 | | | +------------------------+ +----------++------------+ |plot2 ||plot3 | | || | +----------++------------+ +----------++------------+ |plot4 ||plot5 | | || | +----------++------------+ </code></pre> <p>Simple nxm layouts can be achieved via <code>set multiplot layout n,m</code> (see these <a href="http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/demo/layout.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">demos</a> for illustration on the official website).</p> <p><a href="http://matplotlib.org" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>matplotlib</code></a> offers much more advanced possibilites as you can see in the documentation: <a href="http://matplotlib.org/users/gridspec.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Customizing Location of Subplot Using GridSpec</a>.</p> <p>Within gnuplot I have used <code>set origin</code> and <code>set size</code> to achieve this. However, it is rather cumbersome and requires recalculation of sizes and positions when you notice you want to change the layout afterwards.</p> <p><strong>Remark 1:</strong> Often it is also useful to set the margins to fixed sizes to achieve the correct plot sizes. The auto-calculation by varying xlabels and so on would make it otherwise even more difficult to achieve the correct layout.</p> <p><strong>Remark 2:</strong> Instead of <code>origin/size</code> gnuplot offers another possibility using <code>set [lrbt]margin &lt;&gt; at screen</code> which sets plot borders. The user has to make sure that there is enough space for titles and labels (see <a href="http://gnuplot.info/demo/margins.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">demo</a>). Still not a perfect solution but sometimes more convenient.</p> <p>Is there a possibility that I am not aware of or does possibly a tool exist to create layouts?</p>

    1. COI'd plot the plots separately to different files and then use a different tool (e.g. imagemagick) to create the layout.

    2. COI am not sure whether this is really a signficant improvement since I have to adjust at least all sizes of output files for my desired layout via `set term ... size x,y`. Changing the layout would also mean re-adjusting gnuplot files and running again imagemagick, tex-file, ....

    3. COYeah, create a Makefile for the repeated part :-)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
