CopyScales

CopyScales [/I/P] srcWaveName, waveName [, waveName ]...

The CopyScales operation copies the x, y, z, and t scaling, x, y, z, and t units, the data Full Scale and data units from srcWaveName to the other waves.

Flags

/ICopies the x, y, z, and t scaling in inclusive format.
/PCopies the x, y, z, and t scaling in slope/intercept format (x0, delta x format).

Details

Normally the x, y, z, and t (dimension) scaling is copied in min/max format. However, if you use /P, the dimension scaling is copied in slope/intercept format so that if srcWaveName and the other waves have differing dimension size (number of points if the wave is a 1D wave), then their dimension values will still match for the points they have in common. Similarly, /I uses the inclusive variant of the min/max format. See SetScale for a discussion of these dimension scaling formats.

If a wave has only one point, /I mode reverts to /P mode.

CopyScales copies scales only for the dimensions that srcWaveName and waveName have in common.
