Kendo.Mvc.UI.ChartCategoryAxis

Kendo UI ChartCategoryAxis class

The discrete categoryAxis.baseUnitStep values when either categoryAxis.baseUnit is set to "fit" orcategoryAxis.baseUnitStep is set to "auto".The axis will try to divide the active period into successively larger intervals. It will start from x-second intervals, where x is picked from the autoBaseUnitSteps.seconds array. Then it will move to minutes, seconds and so on. This will continue until the number of intervals is less thanmaxDateGroups.

AxisCrossingValue

Category index at which the first value axis crosses this axis (when set as an object).Category indices at which the value axes cross the category axis (when set as an array).

Background

The background color of the axis.

BaseUnitStep

The step (interval) between categories in base units. Setting it to "auto" will set the step to such value that the total number of categories does not exceed categoryAxis.maxDateGroups.This option is ignored if categoryAxis.baseUnit is set to "fit".

Color

The color to apply to all axis elements. Accepts a valid CSS color string, including hex and rgb. Can be overridden by categoryAxis.labels.color andcategoryAxis.line.color.

Crosshair

The crosshair configuration options.

Justify

If set to true the chart will position categories and series points on major ticks. This removes the empty space before and after the series.The default value is false except for "area", "verticalArea", "rangeArea" and "verticalRangeArea".

Labels

MaxDateGroups

The maximum number of groups (categories) to display whencategoryAxis.baseUnit is set to "fit" orcategoryAxis.baseUnitStep is set to "auto".

MaxDivisions

The maximum number of ticks, labels and grid lines to display. Applicable for date category axis. You can combine this property with a bigger value of the maxDateGroups property to increase the number of rendered data points in the Chart without drawing too many labels, ticks, and grid lines.

Min

The first date displayed on the category date axis. By default, the minimum date is the same as the first category. This is often used in combination with the categoryAxis.min and categoryAxis.roundToBaseUnit options to set up a fixed date range.

MinorTicks

Select
