Graph Set Scale

Use this menu to set how the tracks are scaled.

The tracks are plotted as depth versus data. The depth axis is vertical in the vertical mode, and horizontal in the horizontal mode.

The minimum and maximum values determine how much data is in the scroll window, not in the visible window.

The Data Scale determines how much data is in the visible window. In this example, the depth ranges over 27 meters. Since we have 40 pixels per meter, and a typical window is 800 pixels, we will see 20 meters of the data at one time.

The "Meters / Tic Mark" and "Meters / Annotation" determine how often there is a tic mark, and a numerical depth mark, respectively.

The "Track Spacing (Pixels)" is the number of nominal pixels between tracks. A higher value means more track spacing.

The "Apply" button will apply the current values and leave the scale box visible.

The "Reload Current Values" button will restore the values to the state that existed before the scale window was opened.

The "OK" button will dismiss this window, and apply the scale shown in this window.

The "Cancel" button will close this window, leaving the scales that are in effect unchanged. (If you had hit an "Apply" before a "Cancel", the scales applied will remain in effect.)
