Description (last modified by massimo ceraolo)

It seems that PlotParametric does not allow to plot several variables against the same one on the x-axis.
Since it allows several curves in the same plot, this seems no to be due to a limitation of the used 3rd party software.
There may be several ways on which the same x-axis variable to be selected to allow plotting more than one curve. One of them is that after selecting an x-variable, the curves to be plotted against that one be selected clicking on their name's boxes while holding the shift key.
Many other ways are possible. Whatever is chosen it should be written in the documentation. Current doc says:

Plot parametric

Draws a two-dimensional parametric diagram, between variables x and y, with y as a function of x.

It does not even say that one has first to click on the x-variable then on the y.

Moreover there must be a serious bug on the parametric plotting software. I get a program crash every few seconds when I work with it. Unfortunately, up to now I could not find a repetitive sequence to reproduce the issue. In a few cases (today) the crash report should have been sent; in many others MS Windows shut off OMEdit before it could be sent.
