Hi there,

I have values somewhere between 40 and 60 and want to display them using a log-axis but the labels are only on lines, which are powers of the logbase. It looks like this:

As you can see, there are plenty lines where a label could be to make it look a bit better. Is there a way to achieve this?

You can do this with the axis.interval option. Try using this code:

Code:
  axes: [
                        {
                            type: 'linear',
                            location: 'right',
                            logarithmic: true,
                            logBase: 2,
                            interval: 0.2,
                            labels: {
                                stringFormat: '%.1f'
                            },
                            minorGridLines: { interval: 2, strokeStyle: 'red' }
                        }
                      ],
Best,

Hey Ivan,

thanks for that quick answer. Though I'm not quite getting how, the combination of minorGridLines and interval makes it look good :-)
