When i don't pu anything for the minValue in the YAxis the minValue is set automatic.
But it not working all the time, is it me or it a bug?

Hello Luc,

In general, if the value of the series' items are positive numbers only, then YAxis' MinValue should be equal to zero. Could you confirm that you want to display positive numbers only as well?

Furthermore, I could not find a case where MinValue is bigger than that, so I created a sample page to demonstrate this. Could you modify  it, so that I can investigate your issue and give you further assistance?

Hi,

Tks for the repy.

Yes i only use positive value.

I try your sample (copy paste) and the lowest value is 58.
So should the minValue be set automaticly arround 50 since the lowest number is 58?
With your exemple the minValue Start at 0?

Is it doing the samething for you?
Please check the picture.

Tks

Hi create sample to replicate the error

The first graphs the minValue is autoset to 62 and in the second graph the minValue autoset to 0.
Can you copy paste my example and try it?
So the first one is ok but not second one :)
You should have the same error in the second graphs
Tks

Hi Luc,

Thanks for your effort. I can see the same result as you do and there is a difference in the YAxis' scaling.

However, the automatic YAxis' scaling depends on the values of the series' items and their distribution in the chart. This means that there might be cases (such as the second example with MinValue of 0) when the combination of default chart's height, scaling and items' values will make the chart look unreadable, so  the YAxis is scaled in such a way to fix all visual glitches.

In short, there is no "ultimate" solution of the YAxis' scaling that will make the chart look fine in all cases. This is the reason why we have implemented the MinValue property so that the scaling could be configured.
