SYNOPSIS

ra [x|y|z]

ra xmin [xmax [ymin [ymax [zmin [zmax]]]]]

ra y ymin [ymax]

ra z zmin [zmax]

DESCRIPTION

C-PLOT automatically sets the axis ranges and the positioning It will maintain these parameters until the new-points command, np, is executed or the ranges and tick marks are set using ra or ro.(The re command will clear the axis-range settings along with the data.)

When ra is entered, the program will prompt for minimum and maximum axis values. If you specify an axis by entering an x y or a z as an argument, just the ranges for the axis indicated will be requested. If only one axis is ranged and data is present, you will be asked if you want C-PLOT to reset the range of the other axis or axes. If so, C-PLOT will set their ranges to include only values that correspond to the section of the plot chosen for the range of the first axis.

If you specify one to six numerical arguments, they are taken to be, in order, the minimum and maximum values for the x axis, then for the y axis and then for the z axis. You also can give the arguments y or z and then specify just the y or z ranges, respectively. When you enter any numerical arguments, you won't be prompted for anything else.

EXAMPLE

ra 2 30 15 40
