Figure: The NetView Scale Region
The Scale Region is on the right edge of the NetView. At the top of the
scale region is the Unit Text selector. This menu allows the user to
directly access the NetView's unit_text
member which controls
whether or not unit names and/or values are displayed on the units.
Beneath the Unit Text Selector is the Auto Scale toggle. When the Auto
Scale toggle is on, the values of the scalebar adjust to the positive
and negative range of the the maximum of the value of the field selected
in the Member Region. When the Auto Scale toggle is off, the up and
down arrow buttons above and below the scalebar can be used to increase
or decrease the range of the scale respectively. This can be used to
"zoom" in on the differences between unit or connection values. In
addition the user can click the mouse in the number region of the
scalebar and type in the precise scale range by hand if so desired. The
colors in the colorscale are determined by the colorspec
field of
the NetView.
