Label(axis)

Axis label

Description:

This attribute specifies a label to be attached to each axis of a Frame when it is represented (e.g.) in graphical output.

If a Label value has not been set for a Frame axis, then a suitable default is supplied.

Type:
String.

Applicability

Frame
The default supplied by the Frame class is the string " Axis <n >" , where <n > is 1, 2, etc. for each successive axis.
SkyFrame
The SkyFrame class re-defines the default Label value (e.g. to " Right ascension" or " Galactic latitude" ) as appropriate for the particular celestial coordinate system being represented.
TimeFrame
The TimeFrame class re-defines the default Label value as appropriate for the particular time system being represented.
FrameSet
The Label attribute of a FrameSet axis is the same as that of its current Frame (as specified by the Current attribute).
