    Hi!
    I need to show my own format for category axis with the Date values.
    i able to do that by specifying format:

    categoryAxis: { labels: { rotation: -90, format: 'dd MM yyyy' } }

    but i also have allowed user to change baseUnit property for the chart interactively, like it represented in the example http://demos.kendoui.com/dataviz/line-charts/date-axis.html
     
    by default i have baseUnit value set to "months". anyway, on the category axis label i have always the same format as it was given
    (dd MM yyyy). 

    how can i provide format depending on the baseUnit value (e.g. for "months" i need format: "MM yyyy", for "days" - "dd MM", etc)?

    p.s. the globalisation as a possible solution did not work for me. based on this: http://docs.kendoui.com/getting-started/framework/globalization/definecultureinfo i was not able to change formatting on the chart (and chart is not depending on that for some reasons: http://docs.kendoui.com/getting-started/framework/globalization/overview#widgets-that-depend-on-culture-info). so #2 questions is: how to apply globalisation for charts?

    finally i solved it by using this code:

    categoryAxis: {
                      labels:
                          {
                              rotation: -90,
                              dateFormats:
                                  {
                                      minutes: "HH:mm",
                                      hours: "HH:mm",
                                      days: "dd/MM",
                                      months: "MMM 'yy",
                                      years: "yyyy"
                                  }
                          }, type: "Date", field: "Date", baseUnit: "months"
                  }

    Thanks, this was helpful. Using widget looks like this for me:

    .CategoryAxis(axis => axis.Date().BaseUnit(ChartAxisBaseUnit.Days).Labels(x => x.DateFormats(d => d.Days("MMM. dd")))

    >>>.CategoryAxis(axis => axis.Date().BaseUnit(ChartAxisBaseUnit.Days).Labels(x => x.DateFormats(d => d.Days("MMM. dd")))

    How this could be converted in format for PHP widget?

    Hi, Dimo,

    The equivalent for the PHP Chart wrapper is available in the API reference with a example here:

    https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/php/Kendo/Dataviz/UI/ChartCategoryAxisItemLabels#dateformats
