Modifying and Moving Axes
The editing functions that are available in the Axes Attributes dialog box allow you to change things like axis range, linestyle, and the placement of ticks along the axes.
Modifying Axes
The basic procedure for modifying axes includes these steps:
1. Select the axis. Do this by clicking the Object Selection button on the
button bar and clicking
MB1 on the object.
2. Bring up the Attributes dialog box for the selected axis. Do this by selecting Attributes=>Selected Object.
3. Make whatever changes you want to make in the dialog box and click the Apply or OK button.
