Set Linear Coordinate Units


The Set Linear Coordinate Units command assigns coordinate system names for the X and Y image axes. The names may be different for each axis. For example, the image may be a radio astronomy image with frequency versus flux or a numerical simulation showing a 2-D map of velocity versus density. The number of digits displayed for each linear coordinate is set using the Set X-Axis Linear Format and Set Y-Axis Linear Format commands.
