<code class="function">SetXTickLabelPos</code> determines where (and if) the

X tick labels are drawn. The labels can be drawn at the bottom of the plot,
|
|
|
5 |
above the plot, in both positions, at the X axis (even if it is in the
|

6 |
middle of the plot), or not drawn at all.

|
|
|
12 |
The default position for the X tick labels is chosen to avoid overlapping
|
|
|
13 |
tick and data labels.
|
|
|
14 |
For vertical plots, the X tick labels will default to 'none' if the X data
|
|
|
15 |
labels have been enabled using <a class="xref" href="SetXDataLabelPos.html" title="SetXDataLabelPos"><span class="refentrytitle">SetXDataLabelPos</span></a>.
|
|
|
16 |
If neither SetXTickLabelPos nor SetXDataLabelPos are used, PHPlot will
|
|
|
17 |
enable just data labels if they are non-empty, and otherwise it will enable
|
|
|
18 |
just tick labels, and position them below the plot.
|
|
|
19 |
For horizontal plots, there is no conflict (because data labels are drawn
|
|
|
20 |
along Y), so the tick label position defaults to 'plotdown'.
|
|
|
21 |
</p><p>
|
|
|
22 |
This applies only to tick labels.
|
|
|
23 |
For data labels, see <a class="xref" href="SetXDataLabelPos.html" title="SetXDataLabelPos"><span class="refentrytitle">SetXDataLabelPos</span></a>.
|
|
|
24 |
You may want the tick marks to be in the same position as the tick labels.
|
|
|
25 |
To position the tick marks, see <a class="xref" href="SetXTickPos.html" title="SetXTickPos"><span class="refentrytitle">SetXTickPos</span></a>.
|
|
|
26 |
</p><p>
|
|
|
27 |
See <a class="xref" href="SetXAxisPosition.html" title="SetXAxisPosition"><span class="refentrytitle">SetXAxisPosition</span></a> for positioning the X axis.

|
|
|
29 |
Through PHPlot-5.0.7, the default position for X tick labels was below the
|
|
|
30 |
plot ('plotdown').
|
|
|
31 |
This would result in overlaid data and tick labels by default.
|
|
|
32 |
In addition, positioning the X data labels with
|
|
|
33 |
<a class="xref" href="SetXDataLabelPos.html" title="SetXDataLabelPos"><span class="refentrytitle">SetXDataLabelPos</span></a> with a position other than 'none'
|
|
|
34 |
resulted in disabling the X tick labels, and vice-versa.
|
|
|
35 |
If both tick and data labels were positioned, the later setting overrode
|
|
|
36 |
the earlier, which was turned off.
|
|
|
37 |
Starting with PHPlot-5.1.0, PHPlot handles tick and data label positions
|
|
|
38 |
as described in the notes above.
