            DateTimeCategoricalAxis categoricalAxis = new DateTimeCategoricalAxis();

            categoricalAxis.PlotMode = AxisPlotMode.BetweenTicks;

            //First assign the axis to the VerticalAxis property and then add the series to the chart
            this.radChart1.Series[0].HorizontalAxis = categoricalAxis;



        }
    }
}

Horizontal axes are still showing 1,2,3 and not the Actual date/time. Please let me know what else I need to add.

Hello Misha,

Thank you for contacting us.

  First you will need to set the ItemsSource of the series to a collection of items that have a property of type DateTime.
 Then you have to set the CаtegoryBinding of the series to the DateTime property. If the CategoryBinding is not set, the chart automatically sets the categories of the data points to 1, 2, 3...
 I have attached a sample project to demonstrate how you can setup the chart in order to display the categories properly.

I hope this was useful. Please, do not hesitate to contact us if you have further questions.
