Referencing parts of a graph

You use dot notation to reference these display properties. For example, one of the properties of a graph’s title is whether the text is italicized or not. That information is stored in the boolean Italic property in the TitleDispAttr property of the graph.

For example, to italicize the title of graph gr_emp, code:

gr_emp.TitleDispAttr.Italic = TRUE

Similarly, to turn on autoscaling of a graph’s Values axis, code:

gr_emp.Values.Autoscale = TRUE

To change the label text for the Value axis, code:

gr_emp.Values.Label = "New label"

To change the alignment of text in the Value axis’s label text, code:

gr_emp.Values.LabelDispAttr.Alignment = Left!
