NAME

       plgxax - Get x axis parameters

SYNOPSIS

       plgxax(digmax, digits)

DESCRIPTION

       Returns	current  values  of the digmax and digits flags for the x axis.  digits is updated after the plot is drawn, so this routine should
       only be called after the call to plbox(3plplot) (or plbox3(3plplot)) is complete.  See the PLplot documentation for more information.

       Redacted form: plgxax(digmax, digits)

       This function is used in example 31.

ARGUMENTS

       digmax (PLINT *, output)
	      Pointer to variable with the maximum number of digits for the x axis.  If nonzero, the printed label has been switched to a floating
	      point representation when the number of digits exceeds digmax.

       digits (PLINT *, output)
	      Pointer to variable with the actual number of digits for the numeric labels (x axis) from the last plot.
