Axis class

Encapsulates the object that represents a chart’s axis.

The Axis type exposes the following members:

Properties

Property	Description
`chart`	Returns the parent chart. Read-only `IChart`.

`major_tick_mark`	Represents the type of major tick mark for the specified axis. Read/write `TickMarkType`.
`minor_tick_mark`	Represents the type of minor tick mark for the specified axis. Read/write `TickMarkType`.
`tick_label_position`	Represents the position of tick-mark labels on the specified axis. Read/write `TickLabelPositionType`.
`major_unit_scale`	Represents the major unit scale for the date axis. Read/write `TimeUnitType`.
`minor_unit_scale`	Represents the major unit scale for the date axis. Read/write `TimeUnitType`.
`base_unit_scale`	Specifies the smallest time unit that is represented on the date axis. Read/write `TimeUnitType`.
`minor_grid_lines_format`	Represents minor gridlines format on a chart axis. Read-only `IChartLinesFormat`.
`major_grid_lines_format`	Represents major gridlines format on a chart axis. Read-only `IChartLinesFormat`.
`show_minor_grid_lines`	To hide minor gridline set MinorGridLinesFormat.Line.FillFormat.FillType to FillType.NoFill. Read-only bool.
`show_major_grid_lines`	To hide major gridline set MajorGridLinesFormat.Line.FillFormat.FillType to FillType.NoFill. Read-only bool.
`format`	Represents format of axis. Read-only `IAxisFormat`.
`text_format`	Represents format of text. Read-only `IChartTextFormat`.
`title`	Gets the axis’ title. Read-only `IChartTitle`.
`cross_type`	Represents the CrossType on the specified axis where the other axis crosses. Read/write `CrossesType`.
`position`	Represents position of axis. Read/write `AxisPositionType`.
`has_title`	Determines whether a axis has a visible title. Read/write bool.
`number_format`	Represents the format string for the Axis Labels. Read/write str.
`is_number_format_linked_to_source`	Indicates whether the format is linked source data. Read/write bool.
`tick_label_rotation_angle`	Represents the rotation angle of tick labels. Read/write float.
`tick_label_spacing`	Specifies how many tick labels to skip between label that is drawn. Applied to category or series axis. Read/write int.
`is_automatic_tick_label_spacing`	Specifies automatic tick label spacing value. If false: use TickLabelSpacing property. Read/write bool.
`tick_marks_spacing`	Specifies how many tick marks shall be skipped before the next one shall be drawn. Applied to category or series axis. Read/write int.
`is_automatic_tick_marks_spacing`	Specifies automatic tick marks spacing value. If false: use TickMarksSpacing property. Read/write bool.
`label_offset`	Specifies the distance of labels from the axis. Applied to category or date axis. Value must be between 0% and 1000%. Read/write int.
`aggregation_type`	Represents aggregation type of category axis (binning). Applied to category. Used with Histogram or HistogramPareto series only.
`bin_width`	Specifies bin width when AggregationType property value setted to AxisAggregationType.ByBinWidth. Applied to category axes. Used with Histogram or HistogramPareto series only.
`number_of_bins`	Specifies number of bins when AggregationType property value setted to AxisAggregationType.ByNumberOfBins. Applied to category axes. Used with Histogram or HistogramPareto series only.
