Public Class LinearScale Inherits Scale
The LinearScale type exposes the following members.
Constructors
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | LinearScale | Initializes a new instance of the LinearScale class that scales values using the equation y = mx + b, where x is the prescaled value, and y is the scaled value. |
Properties
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Description | Specifies a description for the scale. (Inherited from Scale.) |
| Name | Gets the name of the scale. (Inherited from Scale.) |
| PreScaledUnits | Specifies the units of the values that you want to scale. (Inherited from Scale.) |
| ScaledUnits | Specifies the units to use for scaled values. You can use an arbitrary string. (Inherited from Scale.) |
| Slope | Specifies the slope, m, in the equation y=mx+b. |
| Type | Gets the type of scale. (Inherited from Scale.) |
| YIntercept | Specifies the y-intercept, b, in the equation y=mx+b. |
Methods
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| CreateObjRef | Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |
| Dispose | Releases all resources used by Scale. (Inherited from Scale.) |
 | Dispose(Boolean) |
Releases the managed and unmanaged resources used by Scale or optionally releases only the unmanaged resources.
(Inherited from Scale.) |
| Equals | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetLifetimeService | Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| InitializeLifetimeService | Obtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| MemberwiseClone(Boolean) | Creates a shallow copy of the current MarshalByRefObject object. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |
| ToString | Returns a string representation of the object. (Inherited from Scale.) |
