 Hi Sunil.

 Thanks for the time you took to answer.
 Unfortunately, this doesn't work either. I just tried it...

  Hey.
 
  I ended up calculating the number of tick labels to skip and used the
  labelFunction to return the value every calculated value.
  This works great - I have a label every 10th value, and all values are
  displayed in the chart as they should.
  Only problem is that the label font size is still very small
 (actually, it's
  exactly the same size as when all labels are displayed).
 
  I even tried to define horizontalAxisRenderers and in it a custom
 renderer
  with a specified fontSize but tis didn't work either...
 
  Does anyone have any ideas on how this can be accomplished? What I
 need is
  to display every Xth label, with a readable font size...

   Hey
  
   I have a Flex LineChart with a lot of x values (around 300) - which
   makes them not readable within the chart's container height/width.
  
   Is there a way to make the chart display, say, every fifth value?
  
   I am using:
   mx:horizontalAxis
   mx:CategoryAxis dataProvider={row} categoryField=x
   labelFunction=formatHorizontalAxis /
   /mx:horizontalAxis
  
   The formatHorizontalAxis function formats unix-time into MM/DD/
   using DateFormatter, and I suppose I could also implement it to return
   every 5th value, but I was wondering if there is a better way to
 do this.

2008-11-19 Thread sunild999999 
Have you tried using the AxisRenderer styles canDropLabels and/or 
canStagger?

Also, the docs for canDropLabels seem to say that behavior may be different 
based on 
the type of axis ... maybe you can try using another type of axis like 
DateTimeAxis instead 
of CategoryAxis?

Regards,
the other Sunil
