I am playing with the BTEST example for VB.NET. The command string in the example is

cmds = "[ManualScale(0,-1.25,4,1.25)][TickInterval(1,0.5,0.25)]"
cmds = cmds & "[Caption(" & Chr(34) & "DPLOTLIB XY Test" & Chr(34) & ")]"
cmds = cmds & "[Legend(1," & Chr(34) & "sin({\sp}x)" & Chr(34) & ")]"
cmds = cmds & "[Legend(2," & Chr(34) & "cos({\sp}x)" & Chr(34) & ")]"
cmds = cmds & "[DocMaximize()][ClearEditFlag()]"

If I change just the first line to:
cmds = "[ManualScale(0,-1.25,4,1.25)][NumTics(1,8,10)]", I'd think I would get the same plot. Instead I get an error message with the title "Error processing this command:" with the total command string in the message box.

What am I missing about the use of NumTics?

Thanks, Kenny

LOL. I've only been trying to get it to work for two days.

Thanks very much, Kenny

You're of course welcome, and thanks for your post - it's good to know I'm not the only one that stares at my screen for hours on end trying to figure out why the darn computer/program won't do what I want Smile
