Warning
From version 28 (75), grGraduate is kept for backward compatibility. This function has been replaced with grInterval.
Indicates the interval between values on the vertical and horizontal axis of a chart.
Reminder: By default, the interval is set to 0. This interval is adjusted to fit the available space in the selected destination.
Example
// Chart created through programming
// Vertical axis of the chart with an interval set to 5
grInterval("MyChart", 5, grYCoordinate)
// Chart control
// Horizontal axis of chart with an interval set to 10
grInterval(CHART_MyChart, 10, grXCoordinate)
Syntax
grInterval(<Chart name> , <Interval> [, <Type of axis>])
<Chart name>: Control name or character string
Name of the chart to be used. This name corresponds to:
  • the chart name defined through programming with grCreate.
  • the name of the Chart control in the window, page or report editor.
<Interval>: Real
Interval between two marks. If this parameter is set to 0, the interval will be adjusted to fit the available space in the selected destination.
<Type of axis>: Optional constant
Type of the axis for which the interval is defined:
grSecondaryYCoordinateMarks on the secondary X-axis.
grXCoordinate
(Default value)
Marks on the X-axis.
grYCoordinateMarks on the Y-axis.
grZCoordinateMarks on the Z-axis (Surface chart only).
Remarks

Marks on axes

  • Limitations: 100 marks above and 100 marks below the X-axis.
  • The last mark displayed is the first multiple of <Interval> greater than the highest data value. The entire data is displayed regardless of the destination dimension.
  • To modify the start and end marks on the horizontal, vertical or secondary axis of a chart, use grOrigin.
  • The data defined by grInterval will be taken into account during the next call to grDraw.

Types of charts

The marks on axes have no effect on the Pie charts.
