About This Tool

Axis Viewer Software computes and validates axis configuration for 2D plots. It accepts axis ranges, scale types, and units, and outputs a machine-readable axis_config that downstream renderers can apply. Conceptually it treats the axis as a defined coordinate system: ranges establish bounds, scale selects the growth model (linear or log), and ticks define perceptual granularity. The tool benefits data scientists, engineers, and educators who need reproducible axis settings across multiple plots or datasets. Unique value lies in deterministic tick generation, cross-axis alignment hints, and explicit unit tagging for localization. Core features include required inputs for ranges and scales, optional aspect-ratio controls, grid toggle, and exportable configuration. Outputs include ticks_x, ticks_y, and a structured axis_config that can be consumed by plotting backends without re-deriving scale logic. The approach emphasizes validation, error handling for non-numeric or inconsistent inputs, and support for SI units to maintain consistency in technical contexts. Typical use cases include preparing figures for technical reports, validating axis configurations before automation scripts, and aligning multiple plots with shared axis properties.

How to Use

Provide xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax and select x_scale/y_scale (linear or log).
Choose optional tick density or allow automatic tick generation.
Optionally set units (x_unit, y_unit) and preserve_aspect_ratio.
Run calculation to obtain axis_config and tick arrays.
Export the axis_config for use in downstream plotting tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find Quick Answers

What happens if xmin equals xmax?
The tool detects invalid axis ranges (xmin must be less than xmax) and reports a domain error for the X axis, requesting corrected bounds before generation can proceed.
Can I use different scales for X and Y?
Yes. The tool supports independent scales per axis, such as linear X and log Y, and will validate each axis independently to ensure bounds are positive for log scales.
How are tick labels formatted when units are provided?
Tick values are numeric and formatted with up to 6 significant digits. If a unit is provided, a separate unit field is included in the axis_config for downstream renderers to attach labels accordingly.
Is this compatible with common plotting libraries?
Yes. The output axis_config is structured for easy integration with libraries that accept ranges, scales, tick positions, and unit tags, enabling reproducible plotting pipelines.
