Methods Overview
| Specific settings | |
| count() | Ticks count. |
| get() | Returns an array of ticks. Each tick is a value in terms of data, to make a tick on. |
| interval() | Ticks interval settings. |
| set() | Setups ticks as an explicit array of fixed ticks. |
| Events | |
| listen() | Adds an event listener. |
| listenOnce() | Adds a single time event listener. |
| removeAllListeners() | Removes all listeners. |
| unlisten() | Removes the listener. |
| unlistenByKey() | Removes the listener by the key. |
Methods Description
count
Getter for ticks count value.
Returns:
number - Current ticks count value.Setter for ticks count value.
Params:
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| value | number | 4 | Ticks count value. Note: If value is defined, but not a number or less than 2, it defaults to 5. |
Returns:
anychart.scales.DateTimeTicks - Self instance for method chaining.Try it:
get
Returns an array of ticks. Each tick is a value in terms of data, to make a tick on.
Note: returns correct values only after anychart.scales.Base#finishAutoCalc or after chart.draw()
Note: returns correct values only after anychart.scales.Base#finishAutoCalc or after chart.draw()
Returns:
Array - Array of ticks.Try it:
interval
Getter for ticks interval value.
Note: you can get interval value only if it was set explicitly, otherwise its returns NaN.
Returns:
string - Current interval value in ISO 8601 interval string.Setter for ticks interval value by string representing date part or ISO 8601 interval string.
Params:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| isodate | string | Value to set. |
Returns:
anychart.scales.DateTimeTicks - Self instance for method chaining.Try it:
Setter for ticks interval value by unit.
Params:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| unit | anychart.enums.Interval | Set unit by first letter. "year" is "y", "month" is "m" etc. Note: 'minutes' is 'n'. |
| count | number | Any positive value. |
Returns:
anychart.scales.DateTimeTicks - Self instance for method chaining.Try it:
Setter for ticks interval value.
Note: If any passed value is defined but is not a number or less than 0, it defaults to NaN and count() resets to 5.
Params:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| years | number | Any positive value. |
| months | number | Any positive value. |
| days | number | Any positive value. |
| hours | number | Any positive value. |
| minutes | number | Any positive value. |
| seconds | number | Any positive value. |
Returns:
anychart.scales.DateTimeTicks - 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:
set
Setups ticks as an explicit array of fixed ticks.
Params:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ticks | Array | Explicit ticks array. |
Returns:
anychart.scales.DateTimeTicks - Returns itself for method chaining.Try it:
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:
