Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Custom x-Axis Labels do not appear

[Magus]

Hello,

I'm quite new to LaTeX and especially PSTricks (and not a native English speaker, forgive me). I've been using a model of graph for some time. It was okay until now. I need the origin of my graph to be different from (0,0). When I set it to anything else, my custom x-axis labels, defined by xLabels, disappear. However, if I don't define custom x-labels (as shown in the code comment below), the default labels do show up.

The code is as follows:

I had a look at the pst-plot documentation and did some searching, but couldn't solve the problem.

Does anybody have a clue?

Thanks in advance

At the moment I can't offer a direct solution. But perhaps this approach is acceptable. It features exponential x-axis labels with a base of "2". The output is attached.

Thanks for your reply.

I hadn't considered that. Indeed, a logarithmic scale is a good solution since my x-axis values are powers of 2. Although the "disappearing custom labels" mystery remains to be solved, I'll stick to your solution.

Thanks again.
