plenv - Set up standard window and draw box
plenv(xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax,
just, axis)
Sets up plotter environment for simple graphs by calling
pladv(3plplot) and setting up viewport and window to sensible default
values. plenv(3plplot) leaves a standard margin (left-hand margin of
eight character heights, and a margin around the other three sides of five
character heights) around most graphs for axis labels and a title. When
these defaults are not suitable, use the individual routines
plvpas(3plplot), plvpor(3plplot), or plvasp(3plplot)
for setting up the viewport, plwind(3plplot) for defining the window,
and plbox(3plplot) for drawing the box.
Redacted form: plenv(xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax, just,
axis)
This function is used in example 1,3,9,13,14,19-22,29.
- xmin
(PLFLT(3plplot), input)
- Value of x at left-hand edge of window (in world coordinates).
- xmax
(PLFLT(3plplot), input)
- Value of x at right-hand edge of window (in world coordinates).
- ymin
(PLFLT(3plplot), input)
- Value of y at bottom edge of window (in world coordinates).
- ymax
(PLFLT(3plplot), input)
- Value of y at top edge of window (in world coordinates).
- just
(PLINT(3plplot), input)
- Controls how the axes will be scaled: -1: the scales will not be set, the
user must set up the scale before calling plenv(3plplot) using
plsvpa(3plplot), plvasp(3plplot) or other. 0: the x and y
axes are scaled independently to use as much of the screen as possible. 1:
the scales of the x and y axes are made equal. 2: the axis of the x and y
axes are made equal, and the plot box will be square.
- axis
(PLINT(3plplot), input)
- Controls drawing of the box around the plot: -2: draw no box, no tick
marks, no numeric tick labels, no axes. -1: draw box only. 0: draw box,
ticks, and numeric tick labels. 1: also draw coordinate axes at x=0 and
y=0. 2: also draw a grid at major tick positions in both coordinates. 3:
also draw a grid at minor tick positions in both coordinates. 10: same as
0 except logarithmic x tick marks. (The x data have to be converted to
logarithms separately.) 11: same as 1 except logarithmic x tick marks.
(The x data have to be converted to logarithms separately.) 12: same as 2
except logarithmic x tick marks. (The x data have to be converted to
logarithms separately.) 13: same as 3 except logarithmic x tick marks.
(The x data have to be converted to logarithms separately.) 20: same as 0
except logarithmic y tick marks. (The y data have to be converted to
logarithms separately.) 21: same as 1 except logarithmic y tick marks.
(The y data have to be converted to logarithms separately.) 22: same as 2
except logarithmic y tick marks. (The y data have to be converted to
logarithms separately.) 23: same as 3 except logarithmic y tick marks.
(The y data have to be converted to logarithms separately.) 30: same as 0
except logarithmic x and y tick marks. (The x and y data have to be
converted to logarithms separately.) 31: same as 1 except logarithmic x
and y tick marks. (The x and y data have to be converted to logarithms
separately.) 32: same as 2 except logarithmic x and y tick marks. (The x
and y data have to be converted to logarithms separately.) 33: same as 3
except logarithmic x and y tick marks. (The x and y data have to be
converted to logarithms separately.) 40: same as 0 except date / time x
labels. 41: same as 1 except date / time x labels. 42: same as 2 except
date / time x labels. 43: same as 3 except date / time x labels. 50: same
as 0 except date / time y labels. 51: same as 1 except date / time y
labels. 52: same as 2 except date / time y labels. 53: same as 3 except
date / time y labels. 60: same as 0 except date / time x and y labels. 61:
same as 1 except date / time x and y labels. 62: same as 2 except date /
time x and y labels. 63: same as 3 except date / time x and y labels. 70:
same as 0 except custom x and y labels. 71: same as 1 except custom x and
y labels. 72: same as 2 except custom x and y labels. 73: same as 3 except
custom x and y labels.
