dateFormats? DateFormats

The format for displaying the labels when the X values are dates. Uses the format method of IntlService.

The Chart selects the appropriate format for the current xAxis.baseUnit. Setting the
categoryAxis.labels.format option overrides the date formats.

Contains one placeholder ("{0}") which represents the category value.

margin? Margin | number

If set to true, the Chart mirrors the axis labels and ticks. If the labels are normally on the
left side of the axis, the mirroring of the axis renders them to the right.

padding? Padding | number

The padding of the labels. A numeric value sets all paddings.

position AxisLabelsPosition

The position of the axis labels. By default, labels are positioned next to the axis.

• When position is set to end, the labels are placed at the end of the crossing axis— typically, at the top or right end of the Chart unless the crossing axis was reversed.
• When position is set to start, the labels are placed at the start of the crossing axis— typically, at the left or bottom end of the Chart unless the crossing axis was reversed.

• format—The default format of the label.
• options—The label options.
