Manually scale a log scale axis

[Stuart]

Hi

I'm trying to draw some log charts but the maximum scale used is too wide for my purposes and I would like to reduce it. I have tried the following but this just generates a very weird scale with loads of ticks saying 'Infinity'

<telerik:AxisY IsLogarithmic="True" AutoRange="False" MinValue="1" MaxValue="2000" Step="100"/>

Does anyone know what I should use instead?

Cheers

Hi Stuart,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. It does seem like there is a problem with the Logarithmic scale when the Axis AutoRange is set to False and Min, Max and Step values are set manually. Our developers will investigate the issue and provide a fix for it in one of the future versions of the control.

Your telerik points have been updated.

Hi,

Has there been any update on the issue with controlling the logarithmic y-axis scale? I'm having problems plotting values between zero and one. The scale is not responsive when setting the MinValue and the MaxValue and making the AutoRange=false. However, when setting AutoRange=true, the scale starts at 1, which is not suitable for my application. All the other log charting tools I have worked with support values less than 1 and should render ticks at regular intervals (0.1, 0.01, 0.001, etc.).

Best regards,
John

Hi guys,

I was wondering if this bug has been fixed since june 2010, 
I'm running the latest version of the telerik bins (2010.3.1314.10.40) and i'm having the same behavior : I'm not able to log an axis y with autorange set to false.

Thank you,

Damien

Hello,

We can confirm this issue has been fixed, however, when setting manually the Y axis scale you should not set the absolute values but the log ones. For example setting the following range :

RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisY.AutoRange = false;
RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisY.MinValue = 0;
RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisY.MaxValue = 3;
RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisY.Step = 1;

 would result in a Y axis scale with values : 1, 10, 100 and 1000.

For values less than 1 it should be set in the following manner :

RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisY.AutoRange = false;
RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisY.MinValue = -2;
RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisY.MaxValue = 2;
RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisY.Step = 1;

which would result in values of : 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10 and 100.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
