Multiple Axis Breaks
How to:
- Double click the axis you want to add breaks on to open Axis Dialog.
- In Breaks node in left panel, choose the Number of Breaks you want to put on the axis (up to 7 breaks each axis). They are uniformly distributed by default.
- Modify each break's detailed setting, include Region From/To, Position, etc..Can use LabTalk command to modify the size of break gap. Both X/Y axis break would be effected by layer.x.breaks.gap
| Example | Description |
|---|---|
| layer.x.breaks.gap = 100; | When value is bigger than 30, means percent of one percent of the axis length. In this case, total width 1% of axis length. |
| layer.x.breaks.gap = 15; | Value between 1-30 is used to expressed in 1/10 of major tick length. 15 means 1.5 times tick length. |
| layer.x.breaks.gap = 0; | Follow @AB |
| layer.x.breaks.gap = -120; | When value is negative, means unit is in 1/10 of point size. -120 means the gap will have 12 point size. |
...
- You can also use Labtalk command to enable the axis breaks.
| Example | Description |
|---|---|
| layer.x.breaks.enable = 1; | 1 to turn on axis breaks on x axis, 0 to turn it off. |
| layer.x.breaks.count = 2; | It means Number of Breaks = 2. |
| layer.x.break#.from = 5; | # could be numerical value. layer.x.break1.from=5 means Region From of the first break is 5. |
| layer.x.break#.to = 10; | # could be numerical value. layer.x.break1.to=10 means Region To of the first break is 10. |

Control Axis Break Gap Width
User can use the following property to control the axis break gap widthCan use LabTalk command to modify the size of break gap. Both X/Y axis break would be effected by layer.x.breaks.gap
| Example | Description |

| layer.x.breaks.gap = 100; | When value is bigger than 30, means percent of one percent of the axis length. In this case, total width 1% of axis length. |
| layer.x.breaks.gap = 15; | Value between 1-30 is used to expressed in 1/10 of major tick length. 15 means 1.5 times tick length. |
| layer.x.breaks.gap = 0 |

| layer.x.breaks.gap = -120; | When value is negative, means unit is in 1/10 of point size. -120 means the gap will have 12 point size. |
