Axis labels in Angular 3D Chart control
27 Apr 202418 minutes to read
Axis labels are the labels that are positioned adjacent to the y-axis and beneath the x-axis. It provides descriptive information about the axis.
Smart axis labels
When the axis labels overlap with each other, labelIntersectAction property in the axis can be used to place them smartly.
Case 1: When setting labelIntersectAction as Hide.

Labels with long text at the edges of an axis may appear partially in the 3D chart. To avoid this,
use the edgeLabelPlacement property in axis, which moves the label inside the chart area for better appearance or hides it.

The labels will be rendered based on the count in the maximumLabels property per 100 pixel. If the range (minimum, maximum, interval) and maximumLabels are set, then the priority goes to range. If the range is not set, then the priority goes to maximumLabels property.
