Changing Axis Settings for the Entire Chart

Because charts have many axis settings, and because it's time-consuming to bring up a different dialog box to make the same changes to different axes, Formula One for Java provides the Axes tab on the Format Plot dialog. This tab lets you change many axis settings for any axis on the chart. Specifically, the Axes tab lets you:

• add and remove second Y axes
• add and remove studies
• show or hide the Y axis' adjacent X axis
• adjust the Y axis' length ratio
• show or hide the axis
• show or hide the major and/or minor grid lines
• show or hide ticks
• change the length and position of ticks

To change axis settings for one or more axes:

1. Choose Plot from the context menu and click the Axes tab.
2. In the Select Axis dropdown listbox, select the axis whose settings you want to change.
3. Make the changes, then click Apply. The changes you make will only apply to the axis shown in the Select Axis dropdown listbox.
4. Select a different axis from the Select Axis dropdown listbox, make other axis setting changes, and click Apply to view your changes.
5. When you are finished, click OK.
