Y dimension menu add-ons

Since Y dimension is an output dimension and since this plot presents more than one target dimension a dedicated entry in the Dimension option menu is added to allow you to customize the target attribute to be used in case of multiple output attributes. The option is Target ignored due to the fact the used attribute will become disabled and its content ignored until there will be no longer a multiple output attribute definition.
