AxisStyle.MajorTickmarksLength Property

Specifies the length of major tickmarks.

Namespace: DevExpress.XamarinForms.Charts

Assembly: DevExpress.XamarinForms.Charts.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.XamarinForms.Charts

Declaration

public float MajorTickmarksLength { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Description
Single

The tickmark length, in scale-independent units.

Remarks

Tickmarks (major and minor) divide an axis into equal sections by a step whose value is determined by the special options of an axis. Use the MajorTickmarksLength property to specify the length of major tickmarks. To change the tickmark thickness, use the MajorTickmarksThickness property.

Note

Tickmarks are hidden by default. Set the MajorTickmarksVisible property to True to show major tickmarks on a chart diagram.

To show and customize minor tickmarks, use the MinorTickmarksVisible, MinorTickmarksThickness and MinorTickmarksLength properties.

Example

This example demonstrates how to use the AxisStyle class properties to customize axis lines, display grid lines and tickmarks with the specified appearance, and enable interlaced color intervals on the chart diagram.
