Rather than defining your style in the first plot, you can define it in your pre-amble using \pgfplotsset
; this allows you to put xmin
, xmax
, etc in your own style.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.5}
\pgfplotsset{mystyle/.style={%
width=6cm,
ylabel={mystyle (kg)},
xlabel={Eggs (no.)},
xmin=-2,xmax=3,
xtick={-2,-1,...,3}}}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[mystyle]
\addplot coordinates {(0, 0) (1, 1) (2, 2)};
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[mystyle]
\addplot coordinates {(-1, 0) (-1, 1) (1, 0)};
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}
And if you want to inherit some of the properties from mystyle
and overwrite others, then you can use, for example,
\begin{axis}[mystyle,xmin=-10,xmax=5,xtick={-5,-2,5}]
This happens because PGFPlots only uses one "stack" per axis: You're stacking the second confidence interval on top of the first. The easiest way to fix this is probably to use the approach described in "Is there an easy way of using line thickness as error indicator in a plot?": After plotting the first confidence interval, stack the upper bound on top again, using stack dir=minus
. That way, the stack will be reset to zero, and you can draw the second confidence interval in the same fashion as the first:

Best Answer
Pgfplots has a
tick scale binop
option for this:It is located under the
/pgfplots
path, hence:You can also use:
or alternatively:
in the preamble. The result:
