Getting Started

By default the LinearAxis supports the use of negative values. You can set the minimum minimum and/or the maximum to negative values.

Example 1: Using Negative Values

<RadCartesianChart tkExampleTitle tkToggleNavButton>
    <LinearAxis tkCartesianVerticalAxis allowZoom="true" minimum="-50" maximum="50"></LinearAxis>
    <CategoricalAxis tkCartesianHorizontalAxis allowZoom="true"></CategoricalAxis>

    <SplineAreaSeries tkCartesianSeries [items]="negativeValues" categoryProperty="Period" valueProperty="Amount"></SplineAreaSeries>
</RadCartesianChart>

This is how the chart will look like with negative values on the Y axis:
