There are many ways we can change the look and feel of the graph.
|
|
|
34 |
Almost every parameter of the graph, including ticks, grids, and data labels,
|
|
|
35 |
can be adjusted using PHPlot functions.
|
|
|
36 |
A categorized list of these functions can be found in <a class="xref" href="functions.html" title="Chapter 6. PHPlot Functions By Category">Chapter 6, <em>PHPlot Functions By Category</em></a>.
|

Each of the functions is described in detail in <a class="xref" href="reference.html" title="PHPlot Function Reference">PHPlot Function Reference</a>.
