Re: [ferret_users] Regular axis spacing?

[Luke M <coding1227@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Ansley... this is just what I was trying to figure out! I had seen the Aspect command in the documentation, but was rather unclear on exactly how it was used, and what it did.

Thanks everyone!  :)

Hi Luke,
You can set the aspect ratio of a plot.  The command is SET WINDOW:ASPECT, and in the documentation have a look at the :AXIS option for that command. It's probably what you want to use.  Your plot will look fine with an aspect ratio of 2, or you could set it using the limits,

yes? let asp = (51.6180 - (-52.4828))/(-33.7500 - (-84.3750))
yes? set win/asp=`asp`:axes

Thanks for response. Even though I am getting axes with 5-degree spacings on both X and Y, the actual scales of each are different (hence, making the image look all distorted).

Is there a way to specify Ferret to plot the axes with an identical scale (so that the image is not distorted)?

Thanks!
