ScaleMode Enum

Lists the values that specify the scale mode for an axis.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraCharts

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraCharts.v18.1.dll

Declaration

C#

[ResourceFinder(typeof(XtraChartsResFinder), "PropertyNamesRes")]
[TypeConverter(typeof(EnumTypeConverter))]
public enum ScaleMode

VB.NET

<ResourceFinder(GetType(XtraChartsResFinder), "PropertyNamesRes")>
<TypeConverter(GetType(EnumTypeConverter))>
Public Enum ScaleMode

Members

Name	Description
Automatic	Identifies the automatic date-time scale mode, meaning that data is automatically aggregated according to the chosen ScaleGridOptionsBase.AggregateFunction.
Manual	Identifies the manual date-time scale mode, meaning that the DateTimeScaleOptions.GridAlignment and DateTimeScaleOptions.MeasureUnit properties are in effect, and they should be manually defined. Also, you can choose the aggregate function using the ScaleGridOptionsBase.AggregateFunction property.
Continuous	Identifies the continuous date-time scale mode, meaning data aggregation is disabled and you can only change the grid alignment using the DateTimeScaleOptions.GridAlignment property.
