Syntax

'Declaration
ReadOnly Property HasAxis As Chart_HasAxisType

Chart_HasAxisType HasAxis { get; }

Property Value

Type: Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Chart_HasAxisType
true if the specified axis exists on the Chart; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Use the HasAxis property to hide or show a particular axis on a Chart. The HasAxis property is intended to be used with the following parameters.

If you attempt to use HasAxis without specifying parameters, HasAxis will get a _HasAxisType object that is part of the Office development tools in Visual Studio infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Microsoft Office Excel may create or delete axes if you change the chart type or the AxisGroup property.

Optional Parameters

For information on optional parameters, see Optional Parameters in Office Solutions.

Examples

The following code example creates a Chart and then uses the HasAxis property to hide the primary category axis of the chart.

Private Sub TurnOffCategoryAxis()
    Me.Range("A1", "A5").Value2 = 22
    Me.Range("B1", "B5").Value2 = 55

    Dim Chart1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Chart = _
        Me.Controls.AddChart(Me.Range("D2", "H12"), "Chart1")

    Chart1.SetSourceData(Me.Range("A1", "B5"), Excel.XlRowCol.xlColumns)
    Chart1.ChartType = Excel.XlChartType.xl3DBarClustered

    Chart1.HasAxis(Excel.XlAxisType.xlCategory, _
        Excel.XlAxisGroup.xlPrimary) = False 
End Sub

private void TurnOffCategoryAxis()
{
    this.Range["A1", "A5"].Value2 = 22;
    this.Range["B1", "B5"].Value2 = 55;

    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Chart chart1 =
        this.Controls.AddChart(this.Range["D2", "H12"], 
        "chart1");

    chart1.SetSourceData(this.Range["A1", "B5"], 
        Excel.XlRowCol.xlColumns);
    chart1.ChartType = Excel.XlChartType.xl3DBarClustered;

    chart1.HasAxis[Excel.XlAxisType.xlCategory, 
        Excel.XlAxisGroup.xlPrimary] = false;
}
