Hi, I have problem with the Y axis values, if you take a look here,
the numbers are not intuitive is there a way to fix it?
I tried to set the AutoTicks=”True” but it did nothing
the code

Good morning Nasim,
In order to change the number of yAxis Labels on a chart in SciChart, there are several APIs that can be used.
These methods are discussed in the documentation page Axis Ticks –
MajorDelta, MinorDelta and AutoTicks
1. Automatic tick placement with MaxAutoTicks hint
Using Axis.AutoTicks = true if you also set Axis.MaxAutoTicks = 5 (or another number) it will send a hint to the tick calculation engine to have at most this number of ticks. Additional properties which can affect label output include Axis.IsLabelCullingEnabled
Note: this is a Hint not a specific value
2. Manual tick placement with MajorDelta, MinorDelta
Using Axis.AutoTicks = false if you then set Axis.MajorDelta = 5 and Axis.MinorDelta = 1 you can specify that every ‘5’ there will be a label plus major gridline and every ‘1’ a minor gridline.
Note, this method is not dynamic and will not adjust on zoom. If you set MajorDelta too small you can also generate too many ticks causing performance problems.
- Full control over axis ticks with TickProvider
This method is the most complex but offers the most flexibility. Using the TickProvider and DeltaCalculator API you can create a class which tells SciChart specifically what major and minor ticks to use.
This method is the most flexible. An example DeltaCalculator is as follows:
public class CustomNumericDeltaCalculator : IDeltaCalculator
{
private const uint DefaultTicksCount = 10;
/// <summary>
/// Given an absolute Axis Min and Max, returns a TickRange instance containing sensible MinorDelta and MajorDelta values
/// </summary>
public IAxisDelta<double> GetDeltaFromRange(double min, double max, int minorsPerMajor, uint maxTicks = DefaultTicksCount)
{
// Given the min = Axis.VisibleRange.Min,
// the max = Axis.VisibleRange.Max
// minorsPerMajor = requested minor ticks per major ticks
// maxTicks = requested maximum number of major ticks
//
// Note: Your delta calculation here to calculate minorDelta, majorDelta
double deltaMin, deltaMax;
// Return an AxisDelta
return new DoubleAxisDelta(deltaMin, deltaMax);
}
IAxisDelta IDeltaCalculator.GetDeltaFromRange(IComparable min, IComparable max, int minorsPerMajor, uint maxTicks)
{
return GetDeltaFromRange(min.ToDouble(), max.ToDouble(), minorsPerMajor, maxTicks);
}
}
// Usage
public class NumericAxisEx : NumericAxis
{
private IDeltaCalculator _customDeltaCalculator = new CustomNumericDeltaCalculator();
protected override IDeltaCalculator GetDeltaCalculator()
{
return _customDeltaCalculator;
}
}
This can return to SciChart the exact major & minor deltas to use for a specific zoom level.
Further examples including TickProviders can be found in the
documentation page TickProviders & DeltaCalculators
Hope this helps,
Best regards,
Andrew
