Grapher allows each axis to be scaled separately using axis minimum, maximum, and length values. There is not a scale setting to control how many units occur over a given page length. However we have created a script that will do this: set Y scale to match X scale.bas.
To run this script:
- Open the file in Grapher containing the plot you want to change the scaling of.
- Copy the script below.
- Turn on the Script Manager by clicking View | Display | Script Manager.
- Press Ctrl+A to select all of the existing lines in the Script Manager and then press DELETE.
- Press Ctrl+V to paste it into the Script Manager.
- Click the Start/Resume icon in the Script Manager.
'This script determines the X Axis scale 'and sets the Y Axis length so that the scales match Sub Main 'Initialize Grapher Dim Grapher As Object Set Grapher = CreateObject("Grapher.Application") Grapher.Visible = True 'Set the open Grapher document to the Plot variable name Set Plot = Grapher.Documents.Active 'Define variables for axes Set XAxis1 = Plot.Shapes.Item(1).Axes.Item(1) Set YAxis1 = Plot.Shapes.Item(1).Axes.Item(2) 'Determine the X Scale scale = (XAxis1.Max - XAxis1.Min)/XAxis1.length 'Get the absolute value of scale If scale < 0 Then scale = scale * -1 'Set the Y Axis length so that it uses the same scale YAxis1.length = (YAxis1.Max-YAxis1.Min)/scale End Sub
