Lock one axis for zoom and pan

Post by snOOfy » Mon Sep 12, 2016 2:59 pm

Hi,

I would like to configure my chart so that the user can zoom and pan the x axis with the mouse, but not the y axis. The y axis should always display the range -0.5 to +0.5. How can I accomplish that?

Hi,

you can do that by setting
axis.PanningEnabled = False
axis.ZoomingEnabled = False

For all the axes you don't want to respond to zooming and panning gestures. Note these are available not only for Y axes, but X axes as well. :)

Thanks for the quick reply. The two properties are really convenient, maybe you could mention them in the User Manual in chapter 6.21 Zooming and panning :)

Thanks for suggesting documentation improvements in this regard.

We added new section in the manual:

6.21.17 Excluding specific X or Y axes from zooming and panning operations

• To exclude specific X or Y axes from Zooming operations, set
axis.ZoomingEnabled = False

• To exclude specific X or Y axes from Panning operations, set
axis.PanningEnabled = False


It'll be included in the manual of SDK a little bit later.
