public class XAxis extends Axis

The X axis or category axis. Normally this is the horizontal axis, though if the chart is inverted this is the vertical axis. In case of multiple axes, the xAxis node is an array of configuration objects.

See the Axis object for programmatic access to the axis.

    • getBreaks

      public Breaks[] getBreaks()
      See Also:

    • setBreaks

      public void setBreaks(Breaks[] breaks)
      An array defining breaks in the axis, the sections defined will be left out and all the points shifted closer to each other. Requires that the broken-axis.js module is loaded.

    • getCategories

      public String[] getCategories()
      Specified by:
      getCategories in class Axis
      See Also:

    • setCategories

      public void setCategories(String... categories)

      If categories are present for the xAxis, names are used instead of numbers for that axis. Since Highcharts 3.0, categories can also be extracted by giving each point a name and setting axis type to category. However, if you have multiple series, best practice remains defining the categories array.

      Example: 

       categories: ['Apples', 'Bananas', 'Oranges']
      Defaults to null

      Specified by:
      setCategories in class Axis

      See Also:

    • setMinRange

      public void setMinRange(Number minRange)

      The minimum range to display on this axis. The entire axis will not be allowed to span over a smaller interval than this. For example, for a datetime axis the main unit is milliseconds. If minRange is set to 3600000, you can't zoom in more than to one hour.

      The default minRange for the x axis is five times the smallest interval between any of the data points.

      On a logarithmic axis, the unit for the minimum range is the power. So a minRange of 1 means that the axis can be zoomed to 10-100, 100-1000, 1000-10000 etc.

      Note that the minPadding, maxPadding, startOnTick and endOnTick settings also affect how the extremes of the axis are computed.

      Specified by:
      setMinRange in class Axis

      public Number getMinTickInterval()
      Specified by:

      setMinTickInterval in class Axis

    • getMinorTickInterval

      public String getMinorTickInterval()
      Specified by:
      getMinorTickInterval in class Axis
      See Also:

    • setMinorTickInterval

      public void setMinorTickInterval(String minorTickInterval)

      Tick interval in scale units for the minor ticks. On a linear axis, if "auto", the minor tick interval is calculated as a fifth of the tickInterval. If null, minor ticks are not shown.

      On logarithmic axes, the unit is the power of the value. For example, setting the minorTickInterval to 1 puts one tick on each of 0.1, 1, 10, 100 etc. Setting the minorTickInterval to 0.1 produces 9 ticks between 1 and 10, 10 and 100 etc. A minorTickInterval of "auto" on a log axis results in a best guess, attempting to enter approximately 5 minor ticks between each major tick.

      If user settings dictate minor ticks to become too dense, they don't make sense, and will be ignored to prevent performance problems.

      On axes using categories, minor ticks are not supported.

      Specified by:
      setMinorTickInterval in class Axis

      public Number getTickAmount()
      Specified by:
      getTickAmount in class Axis
      See Also:

    • setTickAmount

      public void setTickAmount(Number tickAmount)

      The amount of ticks to draw on the axis. This opens up for aligning the ticks of multiple charts or panes within a chart. This option overrides the tickPixelInterval option.

      This option only has an effect on linear axes. Datetime, logarithmic or category axes are not affected.

      setTickAmount in class Axis

    • getTickColor

      public Color getTickColor()

      Defaults to: #ccd6eb

      Specified by:
      setTickColor in class Axis

    • getTickInterval

      public Number getTickInterval()
      Specified by:
      getTickInterval in class Axis
      See Also:

    • setTickInterval

      public void setTickInterval(Number tickInterval)

      The interval of the tick marks in axis units. When null, the tick interval is computed to approximately follow the tickPixelInterval on linear and datetime axes. On categorized axes, a null tickInterval will default to 1, one category. Note that datetime axes are based on milliseconds, so for example an interval of one day is expressed as 24 * 3600 * 1000.

      On logarithmic axes, the tickInterval is based on powers, so a tickInterval of 1 means one tick on each of 0.1, 1, 10, 100 etc. A tickInterval of 2 means a tick of 0.1, 10, 1000 etc. A tickInterval of 0.2 puts a tick on 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 20, 40 etc.

      If the tickInterval is too dense for labels to be drawn, Highcharts may remove ticks.

      If the chart has multiple axes, the alignTicks option may interfere with the tickInterval setting.

      setTickInterval in class Axis

    • getTickLength

      public Number getTickLength()
      Specified by:

      public void setTickPixelInterval(Number tickPixelInterval)

      If tickInterval is null this option sets the approximate pixel interval of the tick marks. Not applicable to categorized axis.

      The tick interval is also influenced by the minTickInterval option, that, by default prevents ticks from being denser than the data points.

      Defaults to 72 for the Y axis and 100 for the X axis.

      setTickPixelInterval in class Axis

    • getAlignTicks

      public Boolean getAlignTicks()
      See Also:

    • setAlignTicks

      public void setAlignTicks(Boolean alignTicks)
      When using multiple axis, the ticks of two or more opposite axes will automatically be aligned by adding ticks to the axis or axes with the least ticks, as if tickAmount were specified. This can be prevented by setting alignTicks to false. If the grid lines look messy, it's a good idea to hide them for the secondary axis by setting gridLineWidth to 0. If startOnTick or endOnTick in an Axis options are set to false, then the alignTicks will be disabled for the Axis. Disabled for logarithmic axes. Defaults to true.

      See Also:

    • setMinorTicks

      public void setMinorTicks(Boolean minorTicks)
      Enable or disable minor ticks. Unless minorTickInterval is set, the tick interval is calculated as a fifth of the tickInterval. On a logarithmic axis, minor ticks are laid out based on a best guess, attempting to enter approximately 5 minor ticks between each major tick. Prior to v6.0.0, ticks were unabled in auto layout by setting minorTickInterval to "auto". Defaults to false.
      Parameters:
      minorTicks -
