Property Values and Scaling

The Length property specifies the base length (in pixels) of major tick marks that corresponds to 96 DPI. The Chart control’s draw routines multiply the Length property value by the current scale factor and round the result to the nearest integer to calculate actual length of major tick marks on the target screen.

The Length property’s default value is 5.
