Just add the reverse call to the SCALE statement.  Like this:
  SCALE: cat(aesthetic(aesthetic.color.exterior), include(".00", "1.00"), reverse())

Hi,

im trying to create a scatterplot to display EEG data and would like to ask
if anyone knows how to reverse/invert an axis in a chart in SPSS 16. I would
need for positive values (e.g. 2) to be on the left and for the negative
values (e.g. -4) to be on the right side of the x-axis.
I have been trying to find a solution for this and apparently there is a
"reverse()" command that can be put into the syntax somewhere. I, however,
am not sure where exactly this needs to go and what the command needs to be
specifically.

I have already created the scatterplot for the data with the x-axis in the
conventional format and have added the syntax to this message. Does anyone
have an idea about how to change this syntax so that the values on the
x-axis appear in reversed order?

Thank you very much for your help!
