            | Solution | If you wish to change the tick size from code, you can use the qnx_ticksize() function. You can also use the ticksize utility to change the tick size from the command prompt. For values which are smaller then 0.5 ms, you can use the -e option to ticksize. This will allow you to specify a value in nanoseconds.
