Hi,
I’m trying to achieve the looks of DateTimeCategory XAxis as shown on uploaded screenshot.
Formatting a single row of tick labels is not a hard task (setTextFormatting). The problem arises when there are 2 rows with same frequency (days of the week and dates) and third row with lower frequency (years).
I tried using new line character in text formatting property to break the line for days and dates and it didn’t work. I also tried having two axes bound to the same data series, each one having different formatting and majorDelta, but it seems that they don’t stack up (only first one added is shown).
Any ideas?

I’m reworking existing functionality to use SciChart. I need the resulting graph to look identical to original solution (or as close as possible).
In the screenshot you can see where I got so far (top) compared to the old solution (bottom). I got stuck trying to make the labels work.
I implemented a custom label provider as described here https://www.scichart.com/screenshots-xps-printing-x-axis-text-labels/ (I basically just took the CustomLabelProviderClass from there) I use the same list of labels as the old solution. What you see is as far as I got, using the following axis properties:
VisibleRange=”0,115″
DrawMajorGridLines=”False”
DrawMinorGridLines=”False”
LabelProvider =”{Binding LabelProvider}”
TickLabelStyle=”{StaticResource AxisLabelStyle}”
AutoTicks=”False”
MajorDelta=”0.5″
MinorsPerMajor=”1″
MinorDelta=”0.5″
The old graph does actually skip some of the values as well (about every other, unless I zoom in) but it still displays them with about double the density of the SciChart. Is there a way to make SciChart behave the same?
Also, I applied rotation transform on the labels to get them vertical. As you can see, now they stick into the graph. Is there a way to move them down a bit?

I am using an SCINumericAxis for my y-axis. I am setting the visibleRange to (Min = 28, Max = 76). I am leaving the minorsPerMajor to the default of 5. However when looking at my graph (attached) you can see that the major tick labels are actually every 6 minors, e.g. 30, 36, 42, etc. when they should be 30, 35, 40, etc for minorsPerMajor set to 5.
Please advise on how to fix this issue as my major tick labels should be every 5, not every 6.

Hello again,
Pardon me if I’m missing something obvious, but I am trying to center align a multiline tick label. I want both lines of the label to be centered. By default they seem to be left-justified. See attached image of current behavior.
xAxis = DateAxis(this)
xAxis.textFormatting = "h:mma\nMMM d"
Thank you.
