XAxis label format?

Question

How do I control the format of the XAxis labeling?

At issue is a chart that I can zoom to expand the data.

While initially, my Axis numbers are (for example): 20 40 60 80 100
if I zoom in, I'm getting Axis numbers like 35.99999995 37.99999992 39.99999995

I'm kinda new at the charting (and C# in general), so any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Hello Steve, well what you get is a normal behaviour. In order to change your Axis style you could write something like the following code:

LabelStyle style1 = new LabelStyle();
style1.Format = "#.##";

Well, I stuck that piece of code in, but nothing changed...I suspect that being new to C#, I don't know just where to put it...any suggestions?

Answer 3

Well steve you need just need to set the LabelStyle to your axis that you need to format.

e.g: chart1.Series["series1"].YAxis.LabelStyle = style1;

Yea!  It worked! (but I did have to change it to chart1.ChartAreas["Default"].AxisX.LabelStyle = style1;
