Axis Scrollbar

An Axis scrollbar, which represents the scrollbar of an axis, allows you to scroll through the values of the axis, thereby letting you select a specific range. The presence of a large number of values or data in charts makes data interpretation difficult, especially in compact user interfaces. Axis Scrollbars solve this problem by letting you easily interpret closely related data within a specific range.

FlexChart allows you to add Axis Scrollbar to primary axes (X and Y axes) as well as secondary axes. To add Axis Scrollbar to an axis, you need to create an instance of the C1.Xaml.Chart.Interaction.C1AxisScrollbar class.

The C1AxisScrollbar class provides the ScrollButtonsVisible property that accepts Boolean values to set the visibility of the increase and decrease buttons. To set the current lower and the current upper magnitude of the scrollbar, you can use the LowerValue and the UpperValue property provided by C1RangeSlider class respectively. The lower and upper values change when the scrollbar is resized or moved. When any of the LowerValue or the UpperValue property changes, the ValueChanged event provided by the C1RangeSlider class fires.
