you can use the bmgr_pref_file config.pro option to customize various settings for your graphs. the settings you can define in this file include the axis and graph line weights, label fonts, tick mark types, grid styles, and so forth.
with this option turned on, pro/engineer uses settings stored in a user-created graph preferences text file to determine how to render your graphs. customizing your graph in this way can help you ensure the exact graph display characteristics you want each time you view a graph.
to create a graph preferences file, create a text file that contains the settings you want. once you create the file, you add the bmgr_pref_file option to your config.pro file, making sure to set the option to the file name of your graph settings file.
to help you create a valid graph settings file, here is a sample file, showing the items you can set and what some of the possible values might be.
