Hi Thomas,

thank u for your answer. With this script gnuplot is 'only' writing the
first xtic label. And i also didn't understand what u have done, can u
explain your script a bit please.
One more question is: Is there also a possibility that gnuplot will display
all others when i zoom in like it is in default done by gnuplot when it sets
the xtics self?

Thanks
