TdxChartAxisAlignment Enum

Enumerates available axis positions in relation to the area of an XY diagram.

Declaration

delphi

TdxChartAxisAlignment = (
    Near,
    Far,
    Zero,
    Center
);

Members

Name	Description	Example (Y-Axis)
`Near`

An axis is aligned with the border of a diagram that corresponds to the scale beginning on an orthogonal axis.

The Near axis position depends on the following:

The axis position. For example, if the axis is horizontal with all other default settings, Near matches the bottom diagram border.
Direction of the orthogonal axis. If its scale is reversed, Near and Far positions swap places.
The Chart control’s BiDiMode property value (only for vertical axes). For example, if this property is set to bdRightToLeft, Near and Far positions swap places.

| | Far |

An axis is aligned with the border of a diagram that corresponds to the scale end of an orthogonal axis.

The Far axis position depends on the following:

The axis position. For example, if the axis is horizontal with all other default settings, Far matches the top diagram border.
Direction of the orthogonal axis. If its scale is reversed, Far and Near positions swap places.
The Chart control’s BiDiMode property value (only for vertical axes). For example, if this property is set to bdRightToLeft, Far and Near positions swap places.

| | Zero |

An axis is aligned with the position of the zero value on the scale of an orthogonal axis. This mode is useful when the scale on the orthogonal axis displays both positive and negative numeric values.

| | Center |

An axis is centered within the area of an XY diagram.

Remarks

You can position main X and Y-axes at one of the borders of an XY diagram or within its plot area.

Note

TdxChartAxisAlignment is a scoped enumeration type. Use the type name together with a scope resolution token (. in Delphi or :: in C++Builder) followed by an enumeration value to refer to this value. For example, use TdxChartAxisAlignment.Zero (in Delphi) or TdxChartAxisAlignment::Zero (in C++Builder) to refer to the Zero value in code.
