Hi,
Thank you for your answer. This is true, it doesn't really matter
whether it is a minor or major tick mark as long as it is a line
across the plot.
But I still want to have the major tick marks values written on the
side of the axis an not the minor tick marks. It's way too crowded
when both are present...
Would you have any ideas on how to show only the major ticks marks
values keeping the lines across the plot window for both minor and
major tick marks.
Thanks for your consideration.
Noah
