TChartBasicAxis is the ancestor of the chart's axis class

The basic axis consists of

  • ticks (short line strokes perpendicular to the axis direction)
  • marks, i.e. labels placed at the tick positions
  • grid lines starting at the tick positions and running across the entire chart
  • an optional arrow at the end of the axis line
 If switched to false the axis is hidden along with ticks and labels. Length of the (outer) axis ticks (in pixels)Inner length of the ticks Length of the inner axis ticks (in pixels)Length of the outer ticks Color of the axis ticks Determines wether the axis has grid lines and how they are displayed Determines how the tick intervals of the axis are calculated. Defines the side of the chart at which the axis is shown Determines whether and how an arrow is drawn at the end of the axis Provides parameters how labels ("marks") are to be drawn at the axis Returns true when the axis is drawn in the opposite direction (right-to-left, or top-to-bottom)In TChartBasicAxis, the function always returns false. It is overridden by its descendant TChartAxis which conisiders the state of the axis' Inverted and chart's BiDiMode properties. Creates the axis as an element of the specified chart and as a member of the axislist given as ACollection Destroys the axis and removes it from the collection to which it belongs. Defines the parameters used to draw the grid of the axis.
