Public Property DivisionMode As IntervalDivisionMode
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| IntervalDivisionMode |
The value that specifies the interval calculation method.

Available values:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Auto |
The number of axis intervals and their size are automatically calculated.
| | Width |
The NumericIntervalOptions.Width property specifies the axis interval size.
| | Count |
The NumericIntervalOptions.Count property specifies the number of axis intervals.

This example demonstrates how to create a histogram chart with a given number of bins.
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
// Load data to a chart.
chartControl1.DataSource = LoadDataTableFromXml("..\\..\\Data\\CityWeather.xml", "CityWeather");
Series series = new Series();
series.ArgumentDataMember = "Temperature";
SideBySideBarSeriesView view = series.View as SideBySideBarSeriesView;
view.Border.Visibility = DevExpress.Utils.DefaultBoolean.True;
view.BarWidth = 1;
chartControl1.Series.Add(series);
// Configure histogram options.
XYDiagram diagram = chartControl1.Diagram as XYDiagram;
NumericScaleOptions scaleOptions = diagram.AxisX.NumericScaleOptions;
scaleOptions.AggregateFunction = AggregateFunction.Histogram;
scaleOptions.ScaleMode = ScaleMode.Interval;
scaleOptions.IntervalOptions.DivisionMode = IntervalDivisionMode.Count;
scaleOptions.IntervalOptions.Count = 5;
scaleOptions.IntervalOptions.GridLayoutMode = GridLayoutMode.GridAndLabelShifted;
diagram.AxisX.Label.TextPattern = "{A:F0}°C";
diagram.AxisX.GridLines.Visible = true;
}
static DataTable LoadDataTableFromXml(string fileName, string tableName) {
DataSet xmlDataSet = new DataSet();
xmlDataSet.ReadXml(fileName);
return xmlDataSet.Tables[tableName];
}
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
' Load data to a chart.
chartControl1.DataSource = LoadDataTableFromXml("..\..\Data\CityWeather.xml", "CityWeather")
Dim series As Series = New Series()
series.ArgumentDataMember = "Temperature"
Dim view As SideBySideBarSeriesView = TryCast(series.View, SideBySideBarSeriesView)
view.Border.Visibility = DevExpress.Utils.DefaultBoolean.[True]
view.BarWidth = 1
chartControl1.Series.Add(series)
' Configure histogram options.
Dim diagram As XYDiagram = TryCast(chartControl1.Diagram, XYDiagram)
Dim scaleOptions As NumericScaleOptions = diagram.AxisX.NumericScaleOptions
scaleOptions.AggregateFunction = AggregateFunction.Histogram
scaleOptions.ScaleMode = ScaleMode.Interval
scaleOptions.IntervalOptions.DivisionMode = IntervalDivisionMode.Count
scaleOptions.IntervalOptions.Count = 5
scaleOptions.IntervalOptions.GridLayoutMode = GridLayoutMode.GridAndLabelShifted
diagram.AxisX.Label.TextPattern = "{A:F0}°C"
diagram.AxisX.GridLines.Visible = True
End Sub
Private Shared Function LoadDataTableFromXml(ByVal fileName As String, ByVal tableName As String) As DataTable
Dim xmlDataSet As DataSet = New DataSet()
xmlDataSet.ReadXml(fileName)
Return xmlDataSet.Tables(tableName)
End Function
The following API members configure the histogram options:
| Member | Description |
|---|---|
| ScaleGridOptionsBase.AggregateFunction | Gets or sets the value indicating the aggregate function that should be used to relieve data. |
| ScaleOptionsBase.ScaleMode | Gets or sets the scale mode for an axis. |
| NumericScaleOptions.IntervalOptions | Stores options for numeric axis when its ScaleMode is Interval. |
NumericIntervalOptions.DivisionMode | Specifies how to divide axis scale into intervals. |
| NumericIntervalOptions.Count | Gets or sets the number of intervals when DivisionMode is Count. |
| NumericIntervalOptions.GridLayoutMode | Gets or sets the value that specifies the alignment of grid lines, major tickmarks and axis labels. |
