The Cartesian View Editor

X Automatic

 Determines whether the x-coordinate system should be defined automatically based on the first data to be plotted in the view; if so, the axis will range, left to right, from the minimum to the maximum value in the data. If not, the minimum and maximum values should be specified.

...

Determines the type of coordinates on this axis:

  • Regular: : the values are real-valued numbers
  • Date: the values are dates. When invoked from a macro, these can be supplied as date variables; when typing dates into the icon editor, use the Magics notation for writing dates
  • Logarithmic: the values are real-valued numbers, but the axis will be displayed on a logarithmic scale
  • Geoline: the axis limits should be provided as geographical coordinates; this can be used for displaying cross sections, or other plots where an axis represents a geographical line

X Min

The leftmost value of the x axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Regular or Logarithmic.

X Max

The rightmost value of the x axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Regular or Logarithmic.

X Min Latitude

The leftmost latitude value of the x axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Geoline.

X Max Latitude

The rightmost latitude value of the x axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Geoline.

X Min Longitude

The leftmost longitude value of the x axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Geoline.

X Max Longitude

The rightmost longitude value of the x axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Geoline.

X Date Min

The leftmost date value of the x axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Date.

X Date Max

The rightmost date value of the x axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Date.

X Automatic

Determines whether the x-coordinate system should be defined automatically based on the first data to be plotted in the view; if so, the axis will range, left to right, from the minimum to the maximum value in the data. If not, the minimum and maximum values should be specified.

Y Axis Type

Determines the type of coordinates on this axis:

  • Regular: the values are the values are just real-valued numbers
  • Date: the values are dates. When invoked from a macro, these can be supplied as date variables; when typing dates into the icon editor, use the Magics notation for writing dates
  • Logarithmic: the values are just real-valued numbers, but the axis will be displayed on a logarithmic scale
  • Geoline: the axis limits should be provided as geographical coordinates; this can be used for displaying cross sections, or other plots where an axis represents a geographical line

Y Min

The bottom value of the y axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Regular or Logarithmic.

Y Max

The uppermost value of the y axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Regular or Logarithmic.

Y Min Latitude

Y Max Longitude

The uppermost longitude value of the x axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Geoline.

Y Date Min

The bottom date value of the y axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Date.

Y Date Max

The uppermost date value of the y axis, this parameter is only used if the axis type is set to Date.
