Issue with Y Axis small values and Step property

[pbjohnson]

I am evaluating ChartFX for use in our company and I am having an issue with setting the step value on the Y axis.  My data values are very small numbers (0.000 to 0.020) and in order to have them appear properly on the Y axis, I must (I think) set the Step value on the Y axis to a value like .002 to display properly.  When I preview the report with these settings, it looks fine.  My proplem is in the Visual Studio development layout mode where the ChartFX control display seems to get confused displaying its sample data (not my actual data).  The display gets messed up trying to draw the grid lines at .002 steps when the values range between 0 an 100.  Even this would not be a problem except that everything I do on the chart control now takes forever each time I change something on the chart and it needs to re-display (which is a lot).

Any suggestions on how to accomplish what I am trying to do without messing up the development environment and making it virtually unusable?

I have added a sample of what the control looks like in VS layout mode with this step value and what it look slike in preview.

Any help would be appreciated..

Thanks,

Phil

Hi Phil.  Are you setting

AxisY.Max property?  Please try using AxisY.Max = 0.02;

 I did not set that property as I was hoping to use the Auto feature since the values on the Y axis may vary for this graph (and others using the same data).  Once I set the Max property, I am locked into that each time I run the graph using different data, correct?

I just tried that setting, and it did make things faster but it also forces me to figure out the max and set it each time I have a data set to graph so that the series data is properly scaled on the graph.  This defeats the auto scaling feature which I was planning on using.  any other ideas?
