takes care of drawing 2D axes
The vtkAxis is drawn in screen coordinates. It is usually one of the last elements of a chart to be drawn. It renders the axis label, tick marks and tick labels. The tick marks and labels span the range of values between Minimum and Maximum. The Minimum and Maximum values are not allowed to extend beyond the MinimumLimit and MaximumLimit values, respectively.
Note that many other chart elements (e.g., vtkPlotPoints) refer to vtkAxis instances to determine how to scale raw data for presentation. In particular, care must be taken with logarithmic scaling. The axis Minimum, Maximum, and Limit values are stored both unscaled and scaled (with log(x) applied when GetLogScaleActive() returns true). User interfaces will most likely present the unscaled values as they represent the values provided by the user. Other chart elements may need the scaled values in order to draw in the same coordinate system.
Just because LogScale is set to true does not guarantee that the axis will use logarithmic scaling -- the Minimum and Maximum values for the axis must both lie to the same side of origin (and not include the origin). Also, this switch from linear- to log-scaling may occur during a rendering pass if autoscaling is enabled. Because the log and pow functions are not invertible and the axis itself decides when to switch between them without offering any external class managing the axis a chance to save the old values, it saves old Limit values in NonLogUnscaled{Min,Max}Limit so that behavior is consistent when LogScale is changed from false to true and back again.

double & | max, | ||
float | pixelRange, | ||

Static function to calculate "nice" minimum, maximum, and tick spacing values.
void vtkAxis::UpdateLogScaleActive | ( | bool | updateMinMaxFromUnscaled | ) | [protected] |

Tick marks will be: ... 0.1 0.2 .. 0.9 1 2 .. 9 10 20 .. 90 100 ... Parameter nicevalue will be set to true if tick mark is in: ... 0.1 0.2 0.5 1 2 5 10 20 50 100 ...

void vtkAxis::GenerateLogSpacedLinearTicks | ( | int | order, |
double | min, | ||
double | max | ||
) | [protected] |
Generate logarithmically-spaced tick marks with linear-style labels. This is for the case when log scaling is active, but the axis min and max span less than an order of magnitude. In this case, the most significant digit that varies is identified and ticks generated for each value that digit may take on. If that results in only 2 tick marks, the next-most-significant digit is varied. If more than 20 tick marks would result, the stride for the varying digit is increased.
void vtkAxis::GenerateLogScaleTickMarks | ( | int | order, |
double | min = 1.0 , |
||
double | max = 9.0 , |
||
bool | detailLabels = true |
||
) | [protected] |

Tick labels will be: ... 0.1 0.2 0.5 1 2 5 10 20 50 100 ... If Parameter detaillabels is disabled tick labels will be: ... 0.1 1 10 100 ...
