Mark unit value too small

Lian posted over 16 years ago

I get the error : "Mark unit value too small" when trying to plot

the following data with datamapping string : "Value=SERIES1;Label=DATE"

DATE SERIES1 SERIES2

2003/10/30 12:00:00 AM    100    100
2003/11/30 12:00:00 AM    100.1449955    100.01995085
2003/12/31 12:00:00 AM    107.226788313911    107.045614359997

Do I set the x-axis datatype somewhere, is my dates in the wrong format?

Hi,

The date/time axis labels can be used only for scatter and scatter line chart types. Please check “Data Binding Objects” sample from xamFeatureBrowser for more information about date time with scatter chart type.

I was using a 3D column chart, on a 2D chart it works but ads a x-axis label for each 'day', so unit=1 Setting the unit size manual fixes it. Maybe the 'autorange' feature does not work to well in selecting a unit size. Is there no 'built in' functionality for dates? setting period to "day","month","year" etc. or formatting.

Hi,

Please, try to use Unit value for the X Axis. The maximum number of labels for category axes shouldn’t be more than 50, so try to set interval (Unit) to have smaller number of labels.

<igCA:XamChart.Axes>
<igCA:Axis Unit="10"/>
</igCA:XamChart.Axes>

Which chart type do you use? Do you use 3D charts?

Thanks,
GoranS
