Almost, but I had in mind something slightly different; two calls to plbox (one with "g" alone and one with "h" alone) to draw grids corresponding to the major and minor tick marks with different linestyles and linewidths for each call. Note the major and minor grid spacing would be the same for each call, but if only "g" were specified you only get a grid corresponding to the major tickmarks and if only "h" were specified you only get a grid corresponding to the minor tick marks. Note, I have no practical experience with this idea so you would have to try it and see, but I am virtually positive it would work. For example, I have now spotted http://plplot.sourceforge.net/examples.php?demo=01 where the fourth subpage demonstrates line styles affecting the grid. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
