Turning on AxisStyle_ShowEnds causes my y axis values to look horrible

I would like the labels to NOT overlap it looks horrible that way.  The

previous version of ChartFX handled this just fine or so it seemed. (

Attaching same chart but generated from older version of ChartFX. I don't

nec need to see the exact min and max, but a rounded representation of it

would be nice as it was in the older version.

The second chart is much bigger and hence there is more space for the 

labels. This is due in part because of your X-Axis labels being oriented 45

degrees taking more vertical space. If you do the same thing in the previous

version you will see the same thing.

In the new chart you have only a few pixels available for your negative

half, not enough to show both 0.00 and -10,000, that's why the default

behavior is to hide that label.

You said "I would like the labels to NOT overlap", but HOW ? The space is

limited so either the labels don't show or the show overlapping. What I was

looking for when I asked "What do you want to see" was a more specific

answer like, I would like this label to hide, or this area to expand.

Ok so I went back and made a new chart the exact same final size as the old

one. Both should have labels at 65 degrees. Why are there fewer labels

displayed in the new version? Just to save space?

It looks to me like there is some space to play with between the Xaxis

labels and the start of the legend so it would be possible to make the chart

itself a bit bigger to fit the Y Value labels in without overlapping. Why

is it that the new version shows the 570,000 and -10,000 whereas the older

version went from -100,000 to 600,000. The ONLY time I have seen the labels

overlap in the older version is if I made the window so small that you

couldn't really see anything anyway.

Green is the older version, blue is the newer one
