27 Apr 202424 minutes to read

Title

The title for the axis can be added by using the title property. It helps to provide quick information to the user about the data plotted in the axis. Title style can be customized using titleStyle property of the axis.

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

Title rotation

The title can be rotated from 0 to 360 degree by using the titleRotation property.

bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

Multiple axis

In addition to primary X and Y axis, n number of axis can be added to the chart. Series can be associated with this axis, by mapping with axis’s unique name.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { Chart3DAllModule} from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-charts'

    }
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

Inversed axis

When an axis is inversed, highest value of the axis comes closer to origin and vice versa. To place an axis in inversed manner, set the isInversed property to true.

Opposed position

To place an axis opposite from its original position, set the opposedPosition property to true.
