Hide Minor Ticks X-Axis RadChart

[Rakesh]

Hi,

I have a requirement of binding Daily points on to the Charts. On the X-Axis i am trying to show the Label of some 5 dates and hiding all the other labels. I want to show the major ticks for which Dates are being displayed and hide all the minor ticks. Is this possible to show only Major and not the Minor ticks when binding dynamically.

Hello,

XAxis has only a MajorTick property. Take a look into the following documentation for more.
Ticks

Thanks,

Please find the below code, suggest me if anything is missing in acheving my requirement.

Aspx
<PlotArea XAxis-LayoutMode="Normal" Appearance-FillStyle-FillType="Solid" Appearance-Border-Visible="false">
                                                            <XAxis DataLabelsColumn="Timeline" AxisLabel-TextBlock-Text="Timeline" Appearance-MinorTick-Visible="false"
                                                                Appearance-MinorGridLines-Visible="false" Appearance-MajorGridLines-Visible="false" Appearance-MajorTick-Visible="true">
                                                            </XAxis>
                                                            <YAxis IsZeroBased="false" Appearance-MinorGridLines-Visible="false" Appearance-MajorGridLines-Visible="false"
                                                                AxisLabel-Marker-Visible="false" Appearance-MajorTick-Visible="false" Appearance-MinorTick-Visible="false"
                                                                AutoScale="false">
                                                            </YAxis>
                                                        </PlotArea>

C#
   ChartSeries s = Chart.Series[0];
            for (int i = 0; i < List.Count; i++)
            {
                ChartSeriesItem item = new ChartSeriesItem();
                item.YValue = List[i].Views;
                item.ActiveRegion.Tooltip = List[i].Views.ToString("#,#", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture) + " views on " + List[i].Week.ToShortDateString();
                Chart.PlotArea.XAxis.AddItem(weeklyActivityList[i].Week.ToString("dd-MMM"));
                if (i % mod == 0)
                    Chart.PlotArea.XAxis.GetItem(i).Visible = true;
                else
                    Chart.PlotArea.XAxis.GetItem(i).Visible = false;
                s.Items.Add(item);                    
            }

Hi,

You can hide some of the axis labels by wiring to the chart's BeforeLayout event like this:
void radChart_BeforeLayout(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (var item in radChart.PlotArea.XAxis.Items)
        {
            if ((double)item.Value > new DateTime(2009, 8, 1, 0, 0, 0).ToOADate())
            {
                item.TextBlock.Text = " ";
            }
        }
    }
The code above will hide all XAxis labels with date value bigger than 2009/08/01.

Regarding your other questions about hiding some of the major ticks, there is no way to loop through MajorTicks of the axes which means that you can either make all of them invisible or nor of them.
