2.19.33 logscale

Log scaling may be set on the x, y, z, x2 and/or y2 axes.

Syntax:

           set logscale <axes> <base>
           unset logscale <axes>
           show logscale
     

where <axes> may be any combinations of `x`, `y`, `z`, and `cb` in any order, or `x2` or `y2` and where <base> is the base of the log scaling. If <base> is not given, then 10 is assumed. If <axes> is not given, then all axes are assumed. logscale turns off log scaling for the specified axes.

Examples:

To enable log scaling in both x and z axes:

           set logscale xz
     

To enable scaling log base 2 of the y axis:

           set logscale y 2
     

To enable z and color log axes for a pm3d plot:

           set logscale zcb
     

To disable z axis log scaling:

           unset logscale z
