Hi,

Many thanks for the teams help for getting me going on my chart as detailed here http://es.infragistics.com/community/forums/t/92741.aspx

The team helped provide an example solution that I've now managed to incorporate into my own solution.  It looks as follows:

I've adapted the code to use a CategoryDateTimeXAxis for the contact data.  What I'd like to do is show date values against the x axis and also close up the white space between the -6 Y axis value and the strokes on the x axis.

I've constructed my x axis as follows but I'm obviously missing something:



Dim categoryX As CategoryDateTimeXAxis = New CategoryDateTimeXAxis()
 categoryX.DateTimeMemberPath = "ActivityDate"
 categoryX.DisplayType = TimeAxisDisplayType.Continuous
 categoryX.LabelExtent = 30
 categoryX.LabelsVisible = True
categoryX.LabelFontSize = 8
categoryX.Interval = New TimeSpan(7, 0, 0, 0)
 categoryX.Label = "ActivityDate"
 categoryX.DataSource = posContacts
 categoryX.MajorStroke = Brushes.Transparent
 categoryX.MinorStroke = Brushes.Transparent
 categoryX.Stroke = Brushes.Black
 categoryX.StrokeThickness = 2

Your help, as ever, will be much appreciated.

Many thanks,

Nathan

    I've managed to now get the labels displaying.

    I added an event handler to the x axis FormatLabel event and formatted my text as below:

    

    Private Function OnAxisXFormatLabel(info As AxisLabelInfo) As String
     Return info.DateValue.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")
     End Function

    I also changed the label location to AxisLabelsLocation.OutsideBottom

    The labels look fine now, all I need to know is how to remove the whitespace between the chart and the x axis strokes.

    Many thanks,

    Nathan
