chartAxis.scaling

Options how the scaling of chart axes is automatically handled. It is not used when a chart inspector component is there, in which case the Scene view handles dictate the scaling.

Name Description
dynamic_encapsulateAllValues_includingThoseOutsideOfOtherAxisDisplay This is similar to "dynamic_encapsulateAllValues_butOnlyThoseInsideOfOtherAxisDisplay", and if the other axis also has a dynamic scaling type then there is no difference at all. Though when the other axis has a fixed scaling type (which potentially restricts the display to only a subset of few data points for the other axis) then this will still consider all values for the encapsulation, also those who are hidden by the other axis. So also values are considered that from the point of the other axis view lie somewhere beside the chart and therefore aren't visible.
dynamic_encapsulateAllValues_butOnlyThoseInsideOfOtherAxisDisplay This is similar to "dynamic_encapsulateAllValues_includingThoseOutsideOfOtherAxisDisplay", and if the other axis also has a dynamic scaling type then there is no difference at all. Though when the other axis has a fixed scaling type (which potentially restricts the display to only a subset of few data points for the other axis) then this will only encapsulate those values the are inside the display span of the other axis. Values that from the point of the other axis view lie beside the chart (and which are therefore invisilbe anyway) are ignored.
fixed_relativeToHighestValue Use fixedDisplayedSpan_belowAnchorValue and fixedDisplayedSpan_aboveAnchorValue for specifying how many values are displayed beside the highest value.
fixed_relativeToLowestValue Use fixedDisplayedSpan_belowAnchorValue and fixedDisplayedSpan_aboveAnchorValue for specifying how many values are displayed beside the lowest value.
fixed_relativeToMostCurrentValue This option is only recommended for the x-axis and if "xValuesSource" is used. Reason: "most current" refers to a time and makes only sense if the concerned axis displays a time. If the concerned axis doesn't display a time or the time values are not supplied in linear order then this "fixed_relativeToMostCurrentValue"-option leads to a wrong chart viewport and "fixed_relativeToHighestValue" or "fixed_relativeToLowestValue" are the better options. Use fixedDisplayedSpan_belowAnchorValue and fixedDisplayedSpan_aboveAnchorValue for specifying how many values are displayed beside the most current value.
fixed_absolute Use fixedLowerEndValueOfScale and fixedUpperEndValueOfScale to specify the fixed displayed span.
