SYNTAX

XDIV {NICE|INCREMENT v|NUMBER n},{POWER {ON/OFF}}

INPUT

NICE:Use "nice-numbered" division spacings.
INCREMENT v:Set division spacing increment to v.
NUMBER n:Set number of division spacings to n.
POWER {ON}:Turn power option on. When this option is on, SAC may print the division spacings as a number raised to a power of 10.

DEFAULT VALUES

XDIV NICE POWER ON

DESCRIPTION

This command controls the selection of x axis division spacings. Most of the time the default "nice-numbered" spacings are satisfactory. SAC determines these based on the minimum and maximum axis limits, the length of the axis, and the current axis character size.

You may also force the division spacing to be a certain value by use of the INCREMENT option or you may set the number of division spacings by use of the NUMBER option.
