For example, if you set the <code><i>interval</i></code> to <code>3</code>, the labeled tick marks will be at <code>0, 3, 6, 9</code> ... <p> <li>If <code><i>interval</i></code> is a negative value, the labeled tick marks will 'start' at the axis start value, which is usually the lower limit of the X dimension environment. If this were <code>30</code> (with an <code><i>interval</i></code> of <code>10</code>), then the labeled tick marks would be at <code>30, 40, 50, 60</code>... <p> <li>This command is overridden by the <a href="gradcomdsetxlevs.html"> <code>set xlevs</code></a> command. <p> <li>This command will override the X-axis tick mark interval specified with the <a href="gradcomdsetxaxis.html"><code>set xaxis</code></a> command. <p> <li>Reset by <a href="gradcomdclear.html">clear</a>, but not <a href="gradcomddisplay.html">display</a>. <p> <li>This command does not apply to a date/time axis. <p> <li><code>set xlint</code> and <a href="gradcomdsetylint.html"><code>set ylint</code></a> may not work as described when used to control grid lines for polar stereographic projections. </ol> <p> <h3>Examples </h3> </body> </html>
