I would like to increase the values shown in X-axis of a graph I am working on, in such a way:
X-axis starts in 0.125
, then it shows 0.250, 0.5, 1.0
, and then the numbers are 1.5, 2, 3,4,5,6,8,12
as in following image (of course the graph is incorrect, but I wanted to show the scaling of X-axis values)
Currently I have this:
to do this I have (vb.net version)

I have done the following and it is almost solved
'disable old axis scale
pane.X2Axis.Scale.IsVisible = False
pane.X2Axis.MajorTic.IsAllTics = False
' new labels
Dim x_vals = {0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0, 12.0, 16.0}
' create custom labels and custom grid-lines using LineObj
For Each val As Double In x_vals
'add line
Dim line As New LineObj(pane.YAxis.Scale.Min, val, pane.YAxis.Scale.Max, val)
line.Line.Style = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.DashStyle.Dash
line.Line.Width = 1.0F
pane.GraphObjList.Add(line)
'add label
Dim text As New TextObj(val.ToString(), pane.YAxis.Scale.Min, val)
text.Location.AlignH = AlignH.Right
text.FontSpec.Border.IsVisible = False
text.FontSpec.Fill.IsVisible = False
pane.GraphObjList.Add(text)
Next
getting:
The scale you want is non-linear and so you need to change it to something like a logarithmic scale. Try screwing around with the AxisType Enumeration. At first glance I would guess you'll need a scaled logarithmic axis, or if that doesn't work just use an ordinal axis. It won't 'squeeze' the data points in but at least they will be labeled properly. If all else fails try using the string-array method (basically you fill out an array with the data points you want labeled). Good luck!
EX:
pane.XAxis.Type = AxisType.Log;
Note that this will be a straight up base 10 logarithmic axis type, so it won't be the exact same numbers that you wanted.
