The style of axis encoded as bits in a longword. The axis style may be set to exact, extended, none, or no box. See Axis Styles for details.

Axis Styles

Bit

Value

Function

0

1

Exact. By default the end points of the axis are rounded in order to obtain even tick increments. Setting this bit inhibits rounding, making the axis fit the data range exactly.

1

2

Extend. If this bit is set, the axes are extended by 5% in each direction, leaving a border around the data.

2

4

None. If this bit is set, the axis and its annotation is not drawn.

3

8

No box. Normally, PLOT and CONTOUR draw a box style axis with the data window surrounded by axes. Setting this bit inhibits drawing the top or right axis.

4

16

Inhibits setting the y-axis minimum value to zero, when the data are all positive and non-zero. The keyword YNozero sets this bit temporarily.

Example

To set the x-axis style to exact, use:

!X.Style = 1

or by using a keyword parameter:

PLOT, DIST(10), XStyle=1
