Displaying labels for Minor Ticks?

[Miklos Kalman]

Hi!

I am using MSVC++ 6 with MeasurementStudio6. I want to have the minor ticks have labels in logarithmic scaling when no major tick values are shown. Is this possible with version6 or only in the .NET version.

Thanks,
Miklos

Miklos,

There is no built in way to add labels to the minor ticks in VC++ or .NET controls. However there are "Value Pairs" in VC++ and "Custom Divisions" in .NET. This basically allows you to add a label to axis at a specified value. You can have a collection of these to form a more detailed scaling for each zoom situation. You could for example check the range that is being viewed, calculate the values where it would make the most sense to have the labels and add the value pairs programmatically.

I suggest that you file a suggestion at http://www.ni.com/contact (go to product feedback) that way our engineering department will be notified.

I hope this helps you get started.
