TdxChartAxisAppearance.Color Property

Specifies color of the axis.

Declaration

property Color: TdxAlphaColor read; write; default TdxAlphaColors.Default;

Property Value

Type Default Description
TdxAlphaColor Default

The current axis color.

Remarks

Use Thickness and Color properties to change axis thickness and color, respectively.

Value Type

The Color property accepts TdxAlphaColor values instead of TColor to support transparency.

You can use the TdxAlphaColors record declared in the dxCoreGraphics unit to obtain compatible predefined colors or create custom TdxAlphaColor values. Alternatively, you can call the dxMakeAlphaColor function or other global methods declared in the same unit.

Examples

Value Example[1]
TdxAlphaColors.Default (default) VCL Chart Control: The Default Color of X and Y Axes
TdxAlphaColors.LightGreen VCL Chart Control: A Custom Color of X and Y Axes

Default Value

The Color property’s default value is TdxAlphaColors.Default.

The default Color property value indicates that the parent diagram’s Appearance.FillOptions settings determine the color of the axis and its tick marks.

If the default color is defined everywhere down to the root level, the actual axis color is determined by the Chart control’s look & feel settings.
