Re: [Scigraphica-devel] RFE for scigraphica

[Adrian E. F. <afe...@uc...>]

Scigraphica provides:

- a frame dialog, where you set the color of the 4 axes, tick properties 
(length, width), and position of the axes.
- axis dialogs to set visibility, scale, grids, tick/label positions 
(in/out/both) , etc.
- tick labels dialogs (one per axis)
- title dialog (one per axis)
- axis break dialog(one per axis) - to add a break in the scale.

To make everybody happy, I'll add a tick properties dialog per axis.
