Scale of logical coordinates |
Units ASCII string label that indicates the unit of measure that Scale represents when measuring a single logical coordinate
Normally, the WHIP! data reading application does not need to recognize the file units or scale. The units as applied to a graph can represent temperature, dollars, pressure, and so forth. However, in some cases the viewer application may want to know the native application coordinate for a given WHIP! data coordinate. By passing WHIP! data coordinates through the adjoint of the Units matrix, the 2D WHIP! data coordinate is mapped to a 3D application coordinate.
