Re: FW: axis tic labels

[Mick Spillane <Mick.Spillane@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Claire,
	To change the size of the numeric values on the axes of an x-y
plot use "ppl axlsze,hx,hy" where hx,hy are heights in inches. For example

go ptest
ppl axlsze,0.2,0.25 ; ppl plot

But if one of the axes is a time axis you will need the "ppl txlsze,ht"
command, for example

def axis/t=1-jan-2000:31-mar-2001:1/units=days tax
def grid/t=tax grd ; let v=l[g=grd]
plot v
ppl txlsze,0.2 ; ppl plot

The height of the text strings describing the axes (xlab and ylab) are
controlled via the "ppl labset,hmain,hxlab,hylab,hlabs" command (where
hmain is the desired height of the plot title; hxlab,hylab are the
axis labels; hlabs refers to movable labels.

Good luck,
Mick
