ManualZAxisLine

Purpose

For the Scientific Graph, this property controls the density of contour lines when PlottingMethod is set to PEGPM_CONTOURLINES or PEGPM_CONTOURCOLORS. If zero (default), then contour line density is automatically determined.

For the 3D Scientific Graph, this property provides manual control of the density of grid lines on z axis. Grid lines will be placed at multiples of the defined value.

Comments

For the 3D Scientific Graph Object, this property is used in conjunction with ManualZAxisTicknLine and ManualZAxisTick.

It is important that the value of this property be divisible by the value of ManualZAxisTick. The object will override manual grid line and tick parameters if tick or line densities are too small.

Also, if the user is going to have access to changing the shape and or size of the object, it is suggested that setting manual tick and line densities be avoided.

Example

If the z axis extents go from 0 to 50 and this property is equal to 10, there will be grid lines at 10, 20, 30, and 40.

NoGridLineMultiples can be used to disable logic which prevents odd line frequencies. If you are having trouble setting line densities, try setting this property to TRUE.
