Purpose |
Define a custom coordinate system for the graphic target. |
Syntax |
GRAPHIC SCALE (x1!, y1!) - (x2!,
y2!) |
Remarks |
The graphic target must first be chosen with GRAPHIC ATTACH. GRAPHIC
SCALE lets you define your own world coordinate system for subsequent
If x2! is greater than x1!, coordinates grow larger as they move to the right. Otherwise, they grow larger as they move to the left. If y2! is greater than y1!, coordinates grow larger as they move downward. Otherwise, they grow larger as they move upward. GRAPHIC SCALE PIXELS sets or resets the coordinate system to pixel coordinates. This can be particularly valuable when the original coordinates are in Dialog Units, since this provides increased resolution for other graphic functions. |
