SETXLOG

Purpose:

Turns the log scales on/off for the X axis of a Window.

SETXLOG(win, mode, subtic, powtic)

win

Optional. A window, defaults to the current window.

mode

Optional. An integer, the X log scale mode:

0:	Linear axis (default).
1:	Log axis.

If not specified, returns the current setting.

subtic

Optional. An integer, label subtic values:

0:	Do not label subtics (default).
1:	Label subtics.

powtic

Optional. An integer, log tic format:

0:	Use decimal tic values (default).
1:	Use 10^N tic values.

Nothing, the X axis is set to log X scales or unset to linear X scales.

If no integer arguments are specified, returns the current X log axis setting.

setxlog(1)

turns on X axis log scaling.

setxlog(1, 1)

turns on X axis log scaling with labeled sub-tics.

setxlog(0)

turns off X axis log scaling.

W1: (1..1000)^2;setxlog(1, 0, 1);gridhv

Creates a quadratic series ranging 1 to 10e6 and displays the series with a log X axis labeled using 10^N powers.

SETXLOG with no arguments returns the current X log axis setting.

See SEMILOGX to set the X axis to log scales and the Y axis to linear scales.
