Column Routines

Introduction

 

Axis Routines


 

The following routines manipulate axes. Each column the data matrix should be assigned to an axis in order to plot. For example, you would assign column 1 to X-axis and column 2 to Y1-axis to plot a line. There are three axis available to you, these are X-axis, Y1-axis, Y2-axis (or Z-axis). Each axis can have a different set options enabled, and thus can behave in a specific fashion. As a rule the properties listed here will require you to select a specific axis and then perform an action on that selected axis.
