Property MajorTimeUnit As AxisTimeUnits

Property Value

Type	Description
AxisTimeUnits	An AxisTimeUnits enumeration value specifying the time unit.

Available values:

Name	Description
Auto	Specifies that the time unit for the date axis should be set automatically.
Days	Specifies that days should be used as the time unit for the date axis, so the chart data will be plotted along the axis in days.
Months	Specifies that months should be used as the time unit for the date axis, so the chart data will be plotted along the axis in months.
Years	Specifies that years should be used as the time unit for the date axis, so the chart data will be plotted along the axis in years.

Remarks

To specify the base unit for the date axis, use the Axis.BaseTimeUnit property. To set the distance between major tick marks and gridlines on the axis, use the Axis.MajorUnit property (to specify the interval of tick marks explicitly) or the Axis.SetAutoMajorUnit method (to evaluate the interval of tick marks automatically).
