Get axis range from graph object

Postby tho_mi » Thu Apr 19, 2018 4:46 am

Hey,

I'd like to find out which ranges EViews uses for a certain graph. Is there a way to do that? Setting the range is straightforward, but I'd like to get the ranges EViews uses. If it's not possible to get the ranges from an object, how does EViews calculate min and max? Usually it's some "nice" number and I'd like to know how EViews gets there (simple rounding isn't very flexible if you don't know the scale of the variable apriori).

Thanks in advance!

Thanks! Could you also tell me how the ranges are calculated? I'd like to know them before I plot the data.

Unfortunately that is a proprietary algorithm.
