StripLine.IntervalOffsetType Property
.NET Framework (current version)
Gets or sets the interval offset type of the strip line.
Assembly: System.Web.DataVisualization (in System.Web.DataVisualization.dll)
<BindableAttribute(True)> <PersistenceModeAttribute(PersistenceMode.Attribute)> Public Property IntervalOffsetType As DateTimeIntervalType
Property Value
Type: System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting.DateTimeIntervalTypeA DateTimeIntervalType enumeration value that indicates the interval type. The default value is Auto.
By default, this property is set to Auto; the actual value of this property is determined by the IntervalType property.
The following code example demonstrates three applications of strip lines. First, horizontal strip lines are added at recurring intervals. Second, vertical strip lines are added to highlight weekend data points. Lastly, a non-recurring strip line is added to denote the mean of the data points in the first series of the chart.
