SCALES
If the \COMMENSURATE qualifier is used, the axes will be drawn with
commensurate scaling, that is, the lengths of both axes will be
adjusted to give a commensurate graph. The lengths of the axes are
adjusted at the time the SCALES\COMMENSURATE command is given, which
means that if you change windows after the SCALES\COMMENSURATE command,
the axis lengths will be incorrect. Choose the window you want and then
set the axis scales.
initial value: nlxinc = 5
default value if not entered: nlyinc = 0
nlxinc < 0 - the number of large tic marks on the x-axis will
be nlxinc + 1. If XLOG > 1, logarithmic x-axis,
nlxinc may be changed to avoid fractional powers.
If XLOG < 1, linear x-axis, the x-axis minimum and
maximum will not be labeled with numbers.
nlxinc = 0 - the number of large tic marks on the x-axis will
be automatically determined for the user
The virtual x-axis minimum and maximum will be
determined, so the x-axis may not begin or end
at a large tic mark
nlxinc > 0 - the number of large tic marks on the x-axis will
be nlxinc + 1. If XLOG > 1, logarithmic x-axis,
nlxinc may be changed to avoid fractional powers.
If XLOG < 1, linear x-axis, nlxinc will not be changed.
initial value: nlyinc = 5
default value if not entered: nlyinc = 0
nlyinc < 0 - the number of large tic marks on the y-axis will
be nlyinc + 1. If YLOG > 1, logarithmic y-axis,
nlyinc may be changed to avoid fractional powers.
If YLOG < 1, linear y-axis, the y-axis minimum and
maximum will not be labeled with numbers.
