Hello,

This page details the internal architecture of graphics source code (C++
and Java code mainly) in Scilab 5.
However, it's not relevant if you want to develop using Scilab language.

For more informations about Scilab programming and especially graphic
handles you may have a look to this website:

In Scilab 4 and 5, ticks lengths are set totally automatically. Sorry,
but I think that you need either to reduce the width / height ratio of
your plots or keep the long ticks. Please feel free to send a request
about this here:
http://bugzilla.scilab.org/index.cgi. We'll try to fix this issue in a
future release.
