Namespace: DevExpress.XtraCharts

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraCharts.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Charts

Declaration

[TypeConverter(typeof(NumericScaleOptionsTypeConverter))]
public sealed class NumericScaleOptions :
    ScaleOptionsBase,
    INumericScaleOptions,
    IScaleOptionsDivisionModeSupport<double>,
    IScaleOptionsBase<double>,
    IScaleOptionsBase

The following members return NumericScaleOptions objects:

Remarks

An object of the NumericScaleOptions type is returned by the AxisBase.NumericScaleOptions property.

Example

This example shows how to use NumericScaleOptions to reduce the number of visible series points.

Result

The following code configures the axis scale settings to resemble to the chart appearance above:

NumericScaleOptions numericScaleOptions = ((XYDiagram)chartControl.Diagram).AxisX.NumericScaleOptions;

numericScaleOptions.ScaleMode = ScaleMode.Manual;
numericScaleOptions.MeasureUnit = NumericMeasureUnit.Hundreds;
numericScaleOptions.GridOffset = 5;
numericScaleOptions.AggregateFunction = AggregateFunction.Average;
numericScaleOptions.GridAlignment = NumericGridAlignment.Thousands;
numericScaleOptions.GridSpacing = 1;

The following table lists the API members the code above uses:
