Method Details
- setDeltaR
  
  void setDeltaR(double dr)
  
  Sets the spacing of the radial gridlines.
  
  Parameters:
  
  dr -
- autospaceRings
  
  void autospaceRings(boolean autoscale)
  
  Automatically sets the spacing of the radial gridlines.
  
  Parameters:
  
  dr -
- getDeltaR
  
  double getDeltaR()
  
  Gets the spacing of the radial gridlines.
- setDeltaTheta
  
  void setDeltaTheta(double dtheta)
  
  Sets the spacing of the radial gridlines.
  
  Parameters:
  
  dtheta - in degree

  Parameters:
  
  panel -
  
  g -
- setInteriorBackground
  
  void setInteriorBackground(Color color)
  
  Sets the interior background color.
  
  Specified by:
  
  setInteriorBackground in interface DrawableAxes
