| finishAutoCalc() | Informs the scale that an auto range calculation started for the chart in past was ended. |
| getType() | Returns scale type. |
| inverted() | Inversion state. |

| listen() | Adds an event listener. |

Methods Description
finishAutoCalc
Informs the scale that an auto range calculation started for the chart in past was ended.
Params:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| silently | boolean | If this flag is set, do not dispatch an event if reapplication needed. |
Returns:
boolean - If the calculation changed the scale and it needs to be reapplied.getType
inverted
Getter for scale inversion.
Returns:
boolean - Current inversion state.Setter for scale inversion. If the scale is inverted, axes and series go upside-down or right-to-left
instead of bottom-to-top and left-to-right.
Params:
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| value | boolean | false | Value to set. |
Returns:
anychart.scales.Base - Self instance for method chaining.Try it:
listen
Adds an event listener to an implementing object.
Detailed description
The listener can be added to an object once, and if it is added one more time, its key will be returned.
Note Notice that if the existing listener is one-off (added using listenOnce), it will cease to be such after calling the listen() method.
Note Notice that if the existing listener is one-off (added using listenOnce), it will cease to be such after calling the listen() method.
Params:
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | string | The event type id. | |
| listener | function | Callback method. Function that looks like function(event){
// event.actualTarget - actual event target
// event.currentTarget - current event target
// event.iterator - event iterator
// event.originalEvent - original event
// event.point - event point
// event.pointIndex - event point index
}. | |
| useCapture | boolean | false | Whether to fire in capture phase. Learn more about capturing https://javascript.info/bubbling-and-capturing |
| listenerScope | Object | Object in whose scope to call the listener. |
Returns:
Object - Unique key for the listener.Try it:
listenOnce
Adds an event listener to an implementing object.
Detailed description
After the event is called, its handler will be deleted.
If the event handler being added already exists, listenOnce will do nothing.
Note In particular, if the handler is already registered using listen(), listenOnce() will not make it one-off. Similarly, if a one-off listener already exists, listenOnce will not change it (it wil remain one-off).

| listenerScope | Object | Object in whose scope to call the listener. |
Returns:
Object - Unique key for the listener.Try it:
removeAllListeners
Removes all listeners from an object. You can also optionally remove listeners of some particular type.
Params:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| type | string | Type of event to remove, default is to remove all types. |
Returns:
number - Number of listeners removed.Try it:
startAutoCalc
Informs scale that an auto range calculation started for the chart, so it should reset its data range on the first
call of this method if needed.
Returns:
anychart.scales.Base - Chaining.unlisten
Removes a listener added using listen() or listenOnce() methods.
Params:
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | string | The event type id. | |
| listener | function | Callback method. | |
| useCapture | boolean | false | Whether to fire in capture phase. Learn more about capturing https://javascript.info/bubbling-and-capturing |
| listenerScope | Object | Object in whose scope to call the listener. |
Returns:
boolean - Whether any listener was removed.Try it:
unlistenByKey
Removes an event listener which was added with listen() by the key returned by listen() or listenOnce().
Params:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| key | Object | The key returned by listen() or listenOnce(). |
Returns:
boolean - Whether any listener was removed.Try it:
