YAxis Property

Use this property to return/set values that determines the grid and scale characteristics for a specific y-axis.   YAxis is an array from 0 to (NumYScales - 1) and it uses the Line Class set of properties for its Grid characteristics and the YScale Class set of properties for its Scale characteristics.

   Grid As C_Line

Property YAxis(YAxisNumber As Integer) As YSCALEPROP
[C#]
XYChartNet.XYChartNETCtl.YSCALEPROP XYChartNETCtl.get_YAxis(int YAxisNumber)
[C++]
XYChartNet::XYChartNETCtl::YSCALEPROP XYChartNet::XYChartNETCtl::get_YAxis(int)

Parameters

YAxisNumber

The index of the y-axis to set/get.  Valid values are 0..(NumYScales - 1).

Remarks

Note   For each y-axis scale label, up to 20 characters, across two rows, can be displayed on the chart.   For example, "Speed" & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & "m/s", will display "Speed" in the label's first row and "m/s" in the label's second row.  A carriage return - Chr(13) - and a linefeed - Chr(10) - are required to indicate the text spans two rows.

Examples

XYChartNETCtl1 is the name of the XY Chart NET control instance placed on the form.
