PLOT_PART_SLICE2D

[Next Routine] [List of Routines]
Purpose: Notify user that old routine was renamed to follow naming conventions.

Notes: May be removed in the future

(See projects/themis/spacecraft/particles/slices/plotting/plot_part_slice2d.pro)


THM_PART_SLICE1D_PLOT

[Previous Routine] [Next Routine] [List of Routines]
Procedure:
  thm_part_slice1d_plot.pro

Purpose:
  Draw the plots for thm_part_slice1d
  
Calling Sequence:
  thm_part_slice1d_plot, x, y [,overplot=overplot] [,xrange=xrange] [,yrange=yrange]
                   [,title=title] [,xtitle=xtitle] [,ytitle=ytitle] [,window=window]

Input:
         x: data's x axis values (km/s, eV, degrees)
         y: data's y axis values (slice's units)
  overplot: flag to add the trace to the previous plot 
    xrange: range to force the x axis to
    yrange: range to force the y axis to
    window: index of the plotting window to be used
     title: plot title
    xtitle: x axis title
    ytitle: y axis title
  
  *IDL graphics keywords passed through _extra were supercede any
   keywords explicitly set in the calls to plot and oplot.
   Depending on the circumstance one may wish to:
     -add the keyword to this routine to allow it to be filtered
     -strip the option from the _extra structure 

Output:
  None, produces plot.

Notes:

THM_PART_SLICE2D_GETTICKS

[Previous Routine] [Next Routine] [List of Routines]
Procedure:
  thm_part_slice2d_getticks


Purpose:
  Helper function for thm_part_slice2d_plot. 
  Return an array of formatted annotation strings to be passed
  to an IDL plotting procedure through the [xyz]tickname keyword.
    

Input:
  nticks: (int) # of ticks requested by user (optional)
  range: (float) two element array specifying axis range
  log: (bool/int) flag to denote logarithmic axis, this should always
                  be set to avoid persistence of the last axis setting
  precision: (int) number of significant digits for annotation
  style: (int) type of numberical annotation (0=auto, 1=decimal, 2=sci)
  

Output:
  tickname: (string) Array of tick names
  tickv: (float) Array of tick values
  ticks: (int) Number of ticks - 1   


Notes:
  - This function should be called after the plot window has been initialized;
    otherwise, the AXIS procedure will create an extra window.   
  - If the # of ticks is not specified it will be determined by IDL.
  - Associated tick values are returned via keyword (2013-April)

THM_PART_SLICE2D_GETTICKS_RLOG

[Previous Routine] [Next Routine] [List of Routines]
Procedure:
  thm_part_slice2d_getticks_rlog


Purpose:
  Helper function for thm_part_slice2d_plot. 
  Return an array of formatted annotation strings to be passed
  to an IDL plotting procedure through the [xyz]tickname keyword.
    

Input:
  range: (float) two element array specifying axis range
  precision: (int) number of significant digits for annotation
  style: (int) type of numberical annotation (0=auto, 1=decimal, 2=sci)
  nticks: (int) # of ticks requested by user, this will only be used 
          if the axis range is less than 1 order of magnitude (optional)

  

Output:
  tickname: (string) Array of tick names
  tickv: (float) Array of tick values in normalized/shift log space
  ticks: (int) Number of ticks - 1   


Notes:
  - This function should be called after the plot window has been initialized;
    otherwise, the AXIS procedure will create an extra window.   
  - If the axis range is less than 1 order in log space then IDL will determine ticks.
