categoryAxis.maxDivisions Number

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.

Example

<div id="chart"></div>
<script>
  function createChart() {
    $("#chart").kendoChart({
      dataSource: {
        transport: {
          read: {
            url: "https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/service/StockData",
            dataType: "jsonp"
          }
        },
        schema: {
          model: {
            fields: {
              Date: {
                type: "date"
              }
            }
          }
        }
      },
      seriesDefaults: {
        type: "line"
      },
      series: [{
        field: "Open",
        categoryField: "Date"
      }],
      categoryAxis: {
        maxDivisions: 20,
        labels: {
          rotation: -45
        }
      },
      tooltip: {
        visible: true,
        format: "C2"
      },
      pannable: true,
      zoomable: true
    });
  }

  $(document).ready(createChart);
</script>
