low

The low attribute specifies the lower end of a range of scalar values. It should be in the form of an integer or floating-point number.

Supporting Tags

The low attribute is supported by the <axis> and <range> tags. Its default value depends on the context in which it is used. In most cases, the default for the low attribute is determined by the extent of the relevant data set(s).

Examples

<graph>
  <axis units="cels" low="0.0" high="100.0"/>
  <axis units="inch" low="0.0"/>
</graph>
         
<map>
  <contour>
    <data src="latest.mdf" param="TAIR" units="fahr"/>
    <range low="32.0" high="212.0" interval="2.0"/>
  </contour>
</map>

Notes

The value specified in the low attribute should never be greater than the value specified in the corresponding high attribute.

Note that it is possible to specify the low attribute while omitting the high attribute. This allows you to set a lower limit for the range while letting the upper limit float with the relevant data set.
