I encountered a problem when plotting circles or semi-circles. It looks weird that the radii in x and y axis are different since the default lengths of units in x and y axes are different. Is there any way to make the units equal? It’s possible to do it manually but takes too much time especially when adjusting axis scaling dimensions to make graph look better?
It would be much more desirable to do it automatically so that ratio of x and y axis unit scaling remains 1 all the time?
Sometimes it's called "isotropic" graph

Thanks for your help!

I had to make isotropic graph too. With the following script, you can make your graph isotropic:

// eventually, you can manually set y axes and x beginning range, by typing any number after "="
layer.y.to=;
layer.y.from=;
layer.x.from=;

// make graph isotropic
layer.unit=5;
layer.x.to=layer.width*(layer.y.to-layer.y.from)/layer.height+layer.x.from;
layer.unit=1;

You can play with this formula if you want to set another part of axes, given fixed others
