Oh but you tempted me, and I cannot do it, how do I change the colour of
the grid. Nothing I have tried under symbol-colour has worked, and I
cannot find anything on the wiki.
thanks
Andrew
The following code changes the colour (and shape) of the grid lines, but not the grid coordinate text (which frustrates me). I notice that my grid IS under the text. Compiled with 5.3.9 Bruce #CODE TO CHANGE GRID SYMBOLS FROM CROSS HAIRS TO CONTINUOUS LINES #--------------------------------------------------------------- code metapost def s_hgrid (expr xpos, ypos, xsize, ysize) = pickup PenD; draw ( if xpos < 0: 0 else: -xsize/2 fi, 0 ) -- ( if xpos > 0: 0 else: xsize/2 fi, 0 ) withcolor 0.1black+0.5white; draw ( 0, if ypos < 0: 0 else: -ysize/2 fi ) -- ( 0, if ypos > 0: 0 else: ysize/2 fi ) withcolor 0.1black+0.5white; enddef; endcode
