Minor Tick Overlap

You can determine the overlap value for the minor tick mark by specifying a value range from 0 to 1 for the MinorTickOverlap property. The default value is 0 which, means there is not overlap. When the overlap is 1, the whole tick is inside the plot area.

c1Chart1.Reset(true);

c1Chart1.Data.Children.Add(

new DataSeries() { ValuesSource = new double[] { 1, 2, 1, 2 } });

c1Chart1.ChartType = ChartType.LineSymbols;

c1Chart1.View.AxisX.MinorGridStrokeThickness = 0;

c1Chart1.View.AxisX.MinorTickThickness = 3;

c1Chart1.View.AxisX.MinorTickHeight = 10;

c1Chart1.View.AxisX.MinorTickOverlap = .5;

c1Chart1.View.AxisY.MinorGridStrokeThickness = 0;

c1Chart1.View.AxisY.MinorTickThickness = 3;

c1Chart1.View.AxisY.MinorTickHeight = 10;

c1Chart1.View.AxisY.MinorTickOverlap = 1;
