[Solved] MajorStep Question

[ManniAT]

I have the following set on my chart:

<telerikChart:RadCartesianChart.HorizontalAxis>
    <telerikChart:DateTimeContinuousAxis x:Name="xAxis"
                                    MajorStepUnit="Day"
                                    MajorStep="1"
                                    LabelInterval="1"
                                    LabelFormat="dd.MM"
                                    PlotMode="OnTicks" LabelFitMode="Rotate" />
    <!--    Minimum="{Binding XMinimum}"
        Maximum="{Binding XMaximum}"
        MajorStep="{Binding XMajorStep}"
        -->
</telerikChart:RadCartesianChart.HorizontalAxis>

From this Setting I would expect labels with one per day.
Instead I get two labels per day.
When I set MajorStep to 2 I get what I want.

My question - am I doing something wrong? Is this "normal"?
And if it is normal - do I always have to MajorStep to "wanted + 1" - or "wanted time 2"?

Hi Manfred,

Thanks for the question.
Please post the data set with which you are populating the chart since I could not reproduce the described behavior. I tested the sample Horizontal axis that you sent and it looks ok, there is one label per tick per day. Please see attachment.

I am looking forward to your reply.

All the best,

Hello Manfred,

Thanks for the data.
The chart still acts as expected with the xaml and the data you provided. One label is generated for each day. I should note that I have excluded the data item with date 01.11.2011 because it causes the chart to generate too many days and the labels get squished together making it impossible to discern whether the days are correctly generated. (I have attached the app.)

There must be some information that I am missing. Is it possible for you to directly send your project, this way I will be able directly debug it and see whether something is amiss.

I am looking forward to your reply.

All the best,
