GRIDSTYLE=1 rendering dependent on graph position? [message #46682] Tue, 06 December 2005 12:20

Hello,

I've been creating a number of plots with the properties
[XY]TICKLEN = 1.0
and
[XY]GRIDSTYLE = 1 ! Dotted gridlines

I'm plotting the mean and stddev of a bunch of numbers in separate sets of plots on the
same page (via the position keyword) and I've noticed that on-screen (and in PS output
also) the spacing between the dots of the yaxis (horizontal) gridlines is much smaller for
the first plot than for the second. The xaxis (vertical) gridlines appear fine throughout.
I'm plotting four sets of two plots per page, and it's always the upper (first) plot of
each set that has this weirdness.

Has anyone experienced this before? It's not a showstopper but it makes the output look
even untidier that it already is (the plots are quite busy).

I've posted a sample output PS plot here if my description above doesn't make sense:

Thanks for any info.

cheers,

paulv
