DiscreteBase Property

Syntax

CWAxis.DiscreteBase

Data Type

Variant

Purpose

Specifies the base value for discrete axes.

Remarks

Valid values on a discrete axis are described by the equation:

ValidValue = DiscreteBase + (n * DiscreteInterval)

where n is any integer, positive or negative. The DiscreteBase and DiscreteInterval properties specify the discrete values that are valid on the axis. For example, for discrete values of integers, set DiscreteBase to 0 and DiscreteInterval to 1. For discrete values of 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75, set DiscreteBase to 0 and DiscreteInterval to 0.25.

Example

'Setup the CWSlide control to take only integer data
CWSlide1.Axis.Discrete = True
CWSlide1.Axis.DiscreteInterval = 1
CWSlide1.Axis.DiscreteBase = 1

'Setup the CWSlide control to round all data to the 
'nearest 0.5
CWSlide1.Axis.Discrete = True
CWSlide1.Axis.DiscreteInterval = .5
CWSlide1.Axis.DiscreteBase = 0
