Don't understand the above...guess it comes down to the "easily" part,
but can't think it's not relatively simple for any/all of the above.

Certainly would help to see what your code that didn't please looked
like...if 'hold on' is not in action the plot() should change the axis
to match the new data if use it, if not using plot() but replacing data
one does need to rescale if necessary of course. I was presuming the
data would be of roughly same magnitude but if not then that's a need,
certainly. I can't understand why you say you couldn't include a
ls-line nor why text wasn't "working properly" though.
