Gets the actual axis maximum.

It returns a number or a Date object (for time-based data).

Gets the actual axis minimum.

It returns a number or a Date object (for time-based data).

Gets the array with actual axis labels.

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the axis line is visible.

The default value for this property is true.

Gets the axis type.

Gets or sets the comma-separated property names for the itemsSource property to use in axis labels.

The first name specifies the value on the axis, the second represents the corresponding axis label. The default value is 'value,text'.

Gets or sets the format string used for the axis labels (see Globalize).

Gets the axis host element.

Gets or sets the itemFormatter function for the axis labels.

If specified, the function takes two parameters:

• render engine: The IRenderEngine object to be used in formatting the labels.
• current label: An object with the following properties:
  • value: The value of the axis label to format.
  • text: The text to use in the label.
  • pos: The position in control coordinates at which the label is to be rendered.
  • cls: The CSS class to be applied to the label.

The function returns the label parameters of labels for which properties are modified.

For example:

chart.axisY.itemFormatter = function(engine, label) {
    if (label.val > 5){
        engine.textFill = 'red'; // red text
        label.cls = null; // no default CSS
     }
    return label;
}

Gets or sets the items source for the axis labels.

Names of the properties are specified by the binding property.

For example:

// default value for Axis.binding is 'value,text'
 chart.axisX.itemsSource = [ { value:1, text:'one' }, { value:2, text:'two' } ];

Gets or sets the label alignment.

By default the labels are centered. The supported values are 'left' and 'right for the X-axis, 'top' and 'bottom' for the Y-axis.

Gets or sets the rotation angle of the axis labels.

The angle is measured in degrees with valid values ranging from -90 to 90.

Gets or sets the label padding, in pixels.

The default value for this property is 5 pixels.

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the axis labels are visible.

The default value for this property is true.

Gets or sets the logarithmic base of the axis.

If the base is not specified the axis uses a linear scale.

Use the logBase property to spread data that is clustered around the origin. This is common in several financial and economic data sets.

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the axis includes grid lines.

Gets or sets the location of the axis tick marks.

Gets or sets the number of units between axis labels.

If the axis contains date values, then the units are expressed in days.

Gets or sets the maximum value shown on the axis.

The value can be a number or a Date object (for time-based data).

The default value for this property is null, which causes the chart to calculate the maximum value based on the data.

Gets or sets the minimum value shown on the axis.

The value can be a number or a Date object (for time-based data).

The default value for this property is null, which causes the chart to calculate the minimum value based on the data.

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the axis includes minor grid lines.

Gets or sets the location of the minor axis tick marks.

Gets or sets the number of units between minor axis ticks.

If the axis contains date values, then the units are expressed in days.

Gets or sets the axis name.

Gets or sets the value at which an axis crosses the perpendicular axis.

Gets or sets a value indicating how to handle overlapping axis labels.

The default value for this property is OverlappingLabels.Auto.

Gets or sets the plot area for the axis.

Gets or sets the position of the axis with respect to the plot area.

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the axis is reversed (top to bottom or right to left).

The default value for this property is false.

Gets or sets the title text shown next to the axis.

Converts the specified value from data to pixel coordinates.

Occurs when the axis range changes.
