Remove Misleading Dashes on Plot Right Axis

If you configure a plot to use both left and right axes, the little dash marks can be mistaken for negative signs on the right axis:

In the above example, the right axis ranges from +80deg to +120deg. But it sure doesn't look like it!

 

Can we have an option to turn off those dashes? Or change the symbol?

I like the ticks on the second axis, but I usually color them the same as the grid in the graph.  Next, I go to the Display Format of the graph, choose advanced editing mode and add a space to the beginning of the format string so the labels are offset from the ticks.  Finally, sometimes I choose to show the plus/minus sign (not often).

D'oh! I forgot about the axis style options. Thanks for pointing that out, elset191.
