Thank you, Eric. You're generous with your time and you're absolutely correct. This is the direction I will go. There's no doubt that this seems the right way to go for anything sophisticated. And like most solutions, it will then end up my standard approach. However, it also means I will put this off for a little while until I'm ready to do it right. Maybe just a few days, but...

That means that, in the mean time, if you or anyone has an example of how to configure this using the line: formatting, it would still be useful to me and I would still be grateful. I just have something small I need to produce tonight or tomorrow, for doing some simple blood pressure tracking. I have everything working except a couple of reference lines running across the plot. I'm figuring since it's in the documentation, there must be something somewhere that shows the syntax, yes?
