NSArray<DXStripBase *> *	The array of DXStripBase objects that the axis contains.

Remarks

Cast the strip object to one of the descendant classes (DXQualitativeStrip, DXNumericStrip or DXDateTimeStrip) to obtain a strip’s obtain minimum and maximum values. Note that, the descendant class should be compatible with the axis type, whose strips are processed.
