Qt plotting - new strip?

markbeck

In IC6.1.5, there is a new method of plotting using 'strips'.  I found that the plot() command now supports specifying the strip number. 

This is great if you know the strip number, but what if I just want to add a new strip? 

How can I either create a new strip or have the plot command automatically create that new strip?

Thanks,
Mark

    I submitted an SR: 42568138 (couldn't figure out how to specify that it was an enhancement request..)

    While gensym() does return a symbol, as long as the string you feed it is a number string, it will return a symbol that can easily be converted to an integer.  The nice thing about gensym, is that I'm guarenteed not to create the same strip number in a given plot.

     I noticed that the strip number did seem to be maintained, and I was able to create strips with numbers that were arbitrarily high (and not in order).  As far as I can figure out, it's just some sort of ID to the strip.  

    I did implement a "plot to strip" function using the gensym and it appers to be working.
