SharpPlot.SetYTickMarks Method

Set Y tick marks given a tickmark specification.

Example

sp.SetYTickMarks(100); // Every 100sp.SetYTickMarks(AE.Join(50,1)); // Major,minorsp.SetYTickMarks(new int[] {0,10,20,50,100}); // Exact placement

Overloads

• public void SetYTickMarks(double majorInterval);
• public void SetYTickMarks(int[] tickPlacement);
• public void SetYTickMarks(double[] tickPlacement);
• public void SetYTickMarks(double majorInterval,int minorTickCount);

The units of the major tick interval are normally just the units of the data, but there are some special cases when plotting time-related values. Axis styles which affect this calculation are:

• Time – ticks are in hours (fractions of an hour are fine)
• Duration – ticks are in data units, typically minutes or seconds

The same applies if you choose to give tickmarks exactly as an array.
