.. us.tag  @f{linkaxisscale} NOTREADYENGLISH fieldfunction

The function calculates the formula ``scale * x + offset`` and displays the
result as the new axis scale based on a axis given by the diagram name and axis
type (x,y,z).

The field function has to be added to axis title which shows the new scale. 
Example: The y-axis of the diagram ``Diagram1`` displays power in ``KW``. To
add an horsepower axis create a new diagram and insert the following text into
the y axis title:

.. highlight:: none

::

    @f{linkaxisscale(Diagram1, y, 1.36, 0)}Power in HP

.. highlight:: us

.. function::  @f{linkaxisscale(diagramname, axis, scale, offset)}
