The code snippet below demonstrates how to define TickStepsData for a custom MeasureUnit:

C#

private static TickStepsData[] CentimetersStepsTable = new TickStepsData[] {
    new TickStepsData(0.01, 100.0, 5, 10),
    new TickStepsData(0.02, 50.0, 5, 10),
    new TickStepsData(0.03, 30.0, 2, 10),
    new TickStepsData(0.06, 20.0, 2, 10),
    new TickStepsData(0.12, 15.0, 2, 10),
    new TickStepsData(0.2, 10.0, 2, 10),
    new TickStepsData(0.25, 5.0, 2, 10),
    new TickStepsData(0.3, 5.0, 2, 8),
    new TickStepsData(0.4, 5.0, 2, 4),
    new TickStepsData(0.5, 2.5, 2, 8),
    new TickStepsData(0.8, 2.0, 2, 10),
    new TickStepsData(1.0, 1.0, 2, 10),
    new TickStepsData(1.5, 1.0, 2, 8),
};

public static readonly MeasureUnit Centimeters =
    new MeasureUnit(DevExpress.XtraPrinting.GraphicsDpi.Millimeter, 10,
        "Centimeters", CentimetersStepsTable, () => "cm");

VB.NET

 Private Shared CentimetersStepsTable() As TickStepsData = {
    New TickStepsData(0.01, 100.0, 5, 10),
    New TickStepsData(0.02, 50.0, 5, 10),
    New TickStepsData(0.03, 30.0, 2, 10),
    New TickStepsData(0.06, 20.0, 2, 10),
    New TickStepsData(0.12, 15.0, 2, 10),
    New TickStepsData(0.2, 10.0, 2, 10),
    New TickStepsData(0.25, 5.0, 2, 10),
    New TickStepsData(0.3, 5.0, 2, 8),
    New TickStepsData(0.4, 5.0, 2, 4),
    New TickStepsData(0.5, 2.5, 2, 8),
    New TickStepsData(0.8, 2.0, 2, 10),
    New TickStepsData(1.0, 1.0, 2, 10),
    New TickStepsData(1.5, 1.0, 2, 8)
