multi-plot2 directive#

The multi-plot2 directive arranges nested plot blocks in a grid layout. Unlike multi-plot (which takes a list of function expressions), multi-plot2 gives each subplot its own full plot directive — allowing different drawing primitives, styles, and overlays per panel.

Basic usage#

:::::{multi-plot2}
---
rows: 1
cols: 2
---

:::{plot}
function: x**2, f
:::

:::{plot}
function: x**3, g
:::
:::::

Tips#

  • Shared options set on the container are inherited by all nested plot blocks but can be overridden per subplot.

  • Use multi-plot when all subplots share the same structure and only differ by function expression.
