Automatic Minimum/Maximum for Axes

Post by amjonas » Tue Jun 10, 2014 11:51 am

Other TeeChart implementations have a method to set the automaticMinimum / automaticMaximum for axis objects independently.

Is there a way to do this in the Javascript/HTML5 version?

Otherwise I'll try and do it from the data!

Kind regards

Hello Mark,

There's the automatic property for the axes, and the checkMinMax function to force recalculate the axis range. Ie:

Code: Select all

  Chart1.axes.bottom.automatic=true;
  Chart1.axes.bottom.checkMinMax();

But can one have an automatic maximum, and a fixed minimum, ie:

chart1.axes.left.automaticMaximum=True;
chart1.axes.left.automaticMinimum=False;
chart1.axes.left.minimum=0;

This way (as with Teechart VCL and PHP) the minimum is always zero, whereas the maximum will scale with the data.

Hi Mark,

Excuse me, I didn't understand that point.
I'll add it to the public tracker:
http://bugs.teechart.net/show_bug.cgi?id=795
Feel free to add your mail to the CC list to be automatically notified when an update arrives.

At the moment, checkMinMax function does this:

Code: Select all

  this.checkMinMax=function() {
    var s=this.chart.series, h=this.horizontal;

    if (this.automatic) {
      this.minimum= h ? s.minXValue(this) : s.minYValue(this);
      this.maximum= h ? s.maxXValue(this) : s.maxYValue(this);
    }
  }
You can override it to have a fix minimum=0. Ie:

Code: Select all

  Chart1.axes.left.checkMinMax=function() {
    var s=this.chart.series, h=this.horizontal;

    if (this.automatic) {
      this.minimum=0;
      this.maximum= h ? s.maxXValue(this) : s.maxYValue(this);
    }
  }
