SUPERSCRIPT SCALE

SUPERSCRIPT SCALE (SET)

Set Subcommand

Specify the horizontal and vertical scale factors for the size of superscript and subscript characters.

By default, Dataplot sets the height and width of characters drawn in superscripts and subscripts to 0.5 of the current character height and width.

This command allows you to specify a different size factor. Note that the value is entered as a fraction of the current character size. For example, a size of 1.0 leaves the character size unchanged and the default size is 0.5.

SET SUPERSCRIPT HORIZONTAL SCALE <value>
where <value> is positive number between 0 and 20.

This syntax sets the width of the superscript/subscript characters relative to the current character width.

SET SUPERSCRIPT VERTICAL SCALE <value>
where <value> is positive number between 0 and 20.

This syntax sets the height of the superscript/subscript characters relative to the current character height.

SET SUPERSCRIPT VERTICAL SCALE 1.0
SET SUPERSCRIPT HORIZONTAL SCALE 1.0


SET SUPERSCRIPT VERTICAL SCALE 0.75
SET SUPERSCRIPT HORIZONTAL SCALE 0.5


SET SUPERSCRIPT VERTICAL SCALE 0.25
SET SUPERSCRIPT HORIZONTAL SCALE 0.5

The default is to set both the character height and width to 0.5 of their current value.

SET SUBSCRIPT VERTICAL SCALE is a synonym for SET SUPERSCRIPT VERTICAL SCALE and SET SUBSCRIPT HORIZONTAL SCALE is a synonym for SET SUPERSCRIPT HORIZONTAL SCALE.
