Tick Marks and GTL

On a linear scaled axis I would like to place tick marks at each whole number value but only show tick value labels on every seventh value. How can this be done?

My current code is done with GTL not PROC SGPLOT

It would be a good idea to post your code. Some approaches might be incompatible with your existing code or rely on something you have not implemented in your specific template.

Axis options also vary a bit between LAYOUTs.

I suspect a combination of TICKVALUELIST for the ones you want to label and MINORTICKCOUNT=6 and MINORTICKS=True might work on the appropriate XAXISOPT or YAXISOPT option.

Adding minorticks = Yes and minortickcount = 6 took care of it. Looks great!
