Horizontal grid lines

[ScottieDog]

Hi,

Is there a way to dictate the spacing between the horizontal grid lines on a default chart?

I´m finding there aren´t enough on the horizontal, vertical is every tens mins which is fine for me.

Hello ScottieDog,
Yes, you can dictate the spacing between the horizontal grid lines.

• Right click on the Y Axix
• In the context menu click on Propreties
• In the Chart Panel properties dialog set the field to Horizontal grid line interval type to Points
• Set Horizontal grid lines interval value to say, 1
• Click Ok

Perfect. Thanks.

(Although, when choosing POINTS any value over 0 makes the horizontals disappear altogether, even a value of 1. However, when using TICKS and defining as 5, it is perfect! - Not sure why they disappear on POINTS with a value of 1 or more, but maybe a pointer for anyone else who reads this post).

Hello ScottieDog,
To assist you further can you say:

What chart you are watching?
What is the range of the chart?

Can you upload a screenshot of the scenario you are witnessing.

I look forward to assisting you further.

CL Chart.

Range is 88.75 - 89.85

Hello ScottieDog,
The point value for CL is $1. The chart you are viewing have range just above $1 and thus you can see only one line. Changing it to tick (0.01) will give you the desired view.
