Separate autoscale from scale legend?

[Claire_Reid]

As you stated, I do not believe this is currently an option. Have you made a product suggestion? This seems like a good idea, and I am sure other users would find it helpful as well.

I made a suggestion in this thread, which is (more or less) referring to the same:

The idea being to use Xcontrols and wrap the needed functionality in there with your own buttons and controls.

That way you only have to program it once.

Agree though, again another workaround.

In the LAVA forum, Jens suggested to customize the graph as follows:

1. Create Graph, goto "Customize Control"
2. Then in Customize Control Window, switch to "Change to Edit Mode".
3. Select the Scale Legend Array, and then select from Pull Down Menu "Edit -> Customize Control"
4. Now you have opened another Customize Control Window, but just with the Scale Legend Array. Here you can right-click the scale-string and select to hide that string.
5. now go back, close the Customize Control Window of the scale legend, select to replace the scale legend, and voila: scale string is still hidden, just what you wanted.

This is working great in hiding these scale legend labels, which you could then easily show separately (they are just text fields).
