@a-amouei thank you for this report, we will look into the changes that started in 3.4.1
@a-amouei I am not sure what you mean by tickMarkMajorSize
. I don't see reference to it in any recent versions of our Annotations.
You can change tick mark settings by first disabling 'Auto set ticks', then making changes.
via GUI:
From the cli:
a = GetAnnotationAttributes()
a.axes2D.autoSetTicks=0
#here are some of the tickMarks options for the xAxis (default values are shown), (yAxis has same)
a.axes2D.xAxis.tickMarks.majorMinimum = 0
a.axes2D.xAxis.tickMarks.majorMaximum = 1
a.axes2D.xAxis.tickMarks.minorSpacing = 0.02
a.axes2D.xAxis.tickMarks.majorSpacing = 0.2
SetAnnotationAttributes(a)
Does any of this help?
@biagas Thanks for your reply. I have never used tickMarkMajorSize
myself, but the AI of Microsoft said that I could use it to make the tick marks larger in VisIt. Since it doesn't seem to be available now, I thought that it might have been available in a previous release.
I think your answer covers how the number of tick marks and the line width can be changed, but not the length of each tick mark. The width of a tick mark and its length are in two different directions (a tick mark is a two-dimensional object). I had tried increasing the line width. It was helpful but not adequate.
Setting length of the tick marks has never been an option. A feature request for this option could be created.
Turning this into a Feature request, to allow changing the length of tick marks.
Hi. I occasionally save images with resolutions much higher than that of my monitor. The problem I face is that VisIt apparently renders the axis lines and axis ticks in the image file with the same size as they appear on the monitor. As a result, in the image file, I have a very large plot with axis lines and axis ticks that are unsuitably thin and short. The attribute
axes2D.lineWidth
is useful, but it doesn't affect the length of the axis ticks. It seems that in the past, the attributetickMarksMajorSize
could be used for this purpose, but it doesn't exist anymore. I'm using VisIt 3.4.1.
