PlotOffsetStart

The PlotOffsetStart property is used to provide padding to the axis at start position. The following code sample demonstrates the padding applied to Start position for both x and y-axes.

XAML

<chart:SfCartesianChart>
    . . .
    <chart:SfCartesianChart.XAxes>
        <chart:CategoryAxis PlotOffsetStart="30"/>
    </chart:SfCartesianChart.XAxes>

    <chart:SfCartesianChart.YAxes>
        <chart:NumericalAxis PlotOffsetStart="30"/>
    </chart:SfCartesianChart.YAxes>
</chart:SfCartesianChart>

C#

SfCartesianChart chart = new SfCartesianChart();
. . .
CategoryAxis primaryAxis = new CategoryAxis()
{
    PlotOffsetStart = 30
};
chart.XAxes.Add(primaryAxis);

NumericalAxis secondaryAxis = new NumericalAxis()
{
    PlotOffsetStart = 30
};
chart.YAxes.Add(secondaryAxis);
. . .
this.Content = chart;

PlotOffsetEnd

The PlotOffsetEnd property is used to provide padding to the axis at end position. The following code sample demonstrates the padding applied to end position for both x and y-axes.

XAML

<chart:SfCartesianChart>
    . . .
    <chart:SfCartesianChart.XAxes>
        <chart:CategoryAxis PlotOffsetEnd="30"/>
    </chart:SfCartesianChart.XAxes>

    <chart:SfCartesianChart.YAxes>
        <chart:NumericalAxis PlotOffsetEnd="30"/>
    </chart:SfCartesianChart.YAxes>
    . . .
</chart:SfCartesianChart>

C#

SfCartesianChart chart = new SfCartesianChart();
. . .
CategoryAxis primaryAxis = new CategoryAxis()
{
    PlotOffsetEnd = 30
};
chart.XAxes.Add(primaryAxis);

NumericalAxis secondaryAxis = new NumericalAxis()
{
    PlotOffsetEnd = 30
};
chart.YAxes.Add(secondaryAxis);
. . .
this.Content = chart;
