Public Property Minimum As Double

Visual Basic (Usage)	Copy Code
Dim instance As AxisScale Dim value As Double   instance.Minimum = value   value = instance.Minimum

public double Minimum {get; set;}

Return Value

The minimum value of an axis. Defaults to "Auto", which is represented by Double.NaN.

Sets/gets the minimum value of an axis, and defaults to "Auto". If "Auto" then the minimum axis value will automatically be calculated from the Series being drawn. To set this value to "Auto" at run-time use a Double.Nan value.

Note that if you set this value explicitly then the X-values of data elements must be taken into account. If all data points have a X-values of zero then the Chart control will assume the first data point occurs at zero. Also, if the Minimum value is explicitly set then the StartFromZero property will be ignored. The Minimum value must be less than the Maximum value.

To automatically round the maximum and minimum axis values call the RoundAxisValues method.

Refer to the Labeling Methods topic for important information concerning the various methods that can be used to generate axis labels.
