If you want to shrink your minor ticks, you could try some
overplotting of axis with different lengths.
plot,findgen(10),yticks=9,yticklen=0.3
axis,yaxis=0,yticklen=0.5
OR major and minor the same length, try something like
plot,findgen(10),yticks=9,yticklen=0.3,ytickname=replicate(' ',10)
axis,yaxis=0,yticks=3,yticklen=0.3
etc...
Cheers,
bob

Dear Bob
did you know in which system var the length is stored.
At the moment I develop a simple axis routine for minor ticks by value and
name. I would like to use a constant to set the same tick length as the
standard axis routine.

IDLgrAxis has a SUBTICKLEN property.
