forcing labels to show on graph

I noticed that occasionally when viewing a graph with a lot of entries it

will skip some of the entries for space reasons. For instance, I'm creating

a gantt chart and this happens a lot with bigger graphs. Is there any way to

force ChartFX to show the labels regardless of whether there is enough space

or not?

Also, one of our employees claimed the graph showed up with all the labels

on the screen, but then printed missing labels as I described above. Is

there any way to cancel this behavior?

Thanks.

1) So you want the labels to overlap over each other ? if there is no space

where do you want to show these labels ? Maybe you want to show a

scroll-bar, this way you can ensure that points are wide enough for labels

to be displayed. Please check the Scrollable property and the PixPerUnit

property (Axis object) for details.

2) As the chart is resized, the label spacing will be recalculated, printing

causes the chart to resize as the page size is different than the screen.

I guess they want the labels to overlap. Is that a possiblity? I know it

sounds a little strange but that's what they want. I think they seem to

think that the labels will fit okay, even though Chartfx doesn't think

that...

You can set the X-Axis step manually to something. Lets say, you want EVERY

label to show, you can set the step to one (1). Then you can use the Style

property (axis object). By turning on the AS_NOTCLIPPED flag, you will get

what you are looking for.
