One list presents all possible parameters, and by dragging them the X and Y values of a Cartesian plot can be defined in the most intuitive way. Mail me for the code.
MG May 12th 2005 - Very nice. One "bug" that I noticed is that, when scrolling items appearing at the end of the list do so when only half is visible inside the listbox, which means the other half of the item "hangs out", over the listbox border/rest of the canvas. I can't think of a particularly good way to fix it, though - only things which spring to mind are not having the items appear, until they'd be wholly inside the listbox, or drawing a rectangle above/below the listbox which would obscure the non-visible half of the entry (which is a very nasty hack, I think).
