Configuring the Scale

Configure the scale according to this table:

Field

Meaning

Tick Direction

Specify the direction in which you want the ticks to extend from
the line.

For vertical scales specify either Left or Right.

For horizontal scales specify either Up or Down.

Major Ticks

Specify the number of major ticks on the line. Major ticks are
twice the length of minor ticks.

The range is from 2 to 20. If you choose 2, one mark appears at
either end of the scale.

Minor Ticks

Specify the number of minor ticks between each major tick.
Minor ticks are half the length of major ticks.

The range is from 0 to 20.

You can adjust the size of the scale and format its foreground color,
background color, border style, line style, fill style, and blink
attributes. For details on formatting objects see “Changing Object
Appearance,” in Chapter 9, Creating Objects, in the PanelBuilder
