The Axis Section implementation is another analytical feature embedded into
Chart FX. Utilizing this object in your charting applications allows
end users to quickly identify focus areas of a chart and determine whether
values fall into this range. This analytic enhancement makes data driven charts
more pleasing to the eye and easily deciphered by users.

The AxisSection class allows the creation and customization of the
configured chart axes. This provides the developer with a way to emphasize axis
sections in order to improve readability of charts. To create an axis section,
first you must specify which Axis object in the chart you want to create a
section. This can be done using the AxisX or AxisY properties of
the Chart object:
// Obtain an AxisSection Object for the X and Y Axes AxisSection as1 = chart1.getAxisY().getSections(0); AxisSection as2 = chart1.getAxisX().getSections(0);
|
Note: You may also use the Axis property instead of the AxisX and AxisY
properties. You may also configure multiple sections per axis.
Once the AxisSection object has been created, you may specify the range
(To and From), the BackColor, grids and
grid
attributes
, tick marks, and much more. Many of the properties
supported by the Axis object itself are customizable for the AxisSection object.
Please see the API reference for a complete overview of the AxisSection
and AxisSectionBase classes.
