Axis specific subgrid devision using \psgrid

If I want to devide a grid into subgrids using PSTricks, I use the command \psgrid with the option subgriddiv=<integer>. This, however, sets the number of subgrids to the same on both axis; is it possible to get a different subdivision for each axis?

• use \psaxes instead of \psgrid – user2478 Sep 1 '13 at 7:53
• @Herbert Can you maybe give an example? It is probably something trivial but I cannot figure out how to use \psaxes to get what I want. – Svend Tveskæg Sep 1 '13 at 9:54

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pst-plot}
\begin{document}
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)(5,7)
\psaxes[xsubticks=5, xticksize=0 7, xsubticksize=1,
ysubticks=2, yticksize=0 5, ysubticksize=1,
subtickcolor=black!30](5,7)
\end{pspicture}
\end{document}


• I didn't knew of those options at all. Great, Herbert! – Svend Tveskæg Sep 1 '13 at 10:05
• How do I set the linestyle for the grid and subgrid? I cannot find anything in the pstricks-add manual. – Svend Tveskæg Sep 1 '13 at 10:38
• Specifically, I would like to make the grid and subgrid lines dotted. – Svend Tveskæg Sep 1 '13 at 12:18
• there are a lot of examples in the documentation. – user2478 Sep 1 '13 at 12:37
• I cannot find any examples of this, unfortunately. (Can you give a page numbers or something?) I have tried to envoke \psaxes[...,linestyle=dotted,...](x,y) but then the axes themselves become dotted and the grid disappears. – Svend Tveskæg Sep 1 '13 at 12:48
