Properties

ActualRange

ValueRange<DateTime>

Gets the actual DateTime range currently used by the axis for plotting data points.

public ValueRange<DateTime> ActualRange { get; }

GapLength

double

Gets or sets the gap ratio between chart series, expressed as a value between 0 and 1.

public double GapLength { get; set; }

MajorStep

double

Gets or sets the custom step interval between axis ticks. Set to 0 to enable automatic step calculation.

public double MajorStep { get; set; }

MajorStepUnit

TimeInterval

Gets or sets the time unit for the major step interval when MajorStep is specified.

public TimeInterval MajorStepUnit { get; set; }

Maximum

DateTime

Gets or sets the maximum DateTime value displayed on the axis. Set to DateTime.MaxValue for automatic calculation.

public DateTime Maximum { get; set; }

MaximumTicks

int

Gets or sets the maximum number of ticks that can be displayed on the axis to prevent overcrowding.
