By default, the draw/plot function plots y-axis values in ascending order (from bottom to top). In other words, -ve values are at the bottom of the graph and +ve values above the origin (towards the top of the plot). Can we reverse (see the figure attached) this behavior for the individual axis or both?
It is possible in gnuplot, by passing set xrange reverse and set yrange reverse, but wxmaxima does not provide a full interface for gnuplot, however, it seems that direct access may be possible. As from the docs:
2.3.5 Opening gnuplot’s command console in plot windows On MS Windows, if in Maxima’s variable gnuplot_command “gnuplot” is replaced by “wgnuplot”, gnuplot offers the possibility to open a console window, where gnuplot commands can be entered into. Unfortunately, enabling this feature causes gnuplot to “steal” the keyboard focus for a short time every time a plot is prepared.
Please also note that there is a difference in gnuplot 4 and 5:
The reverse keyword of the set [axis]range command aects only autoscaling. It does not invert or otherwise alter the meaning of a command such as set xrange [0:1]. If you want to reverse the direction of the x axis in such a case, say instead set xrange [1:0].
