Axis X with empty dataPoints

[Luc]

Dear canvasjs support,

I try to set the X axis with an empty graph. But when I put this, nothing is displaying on axis X:

axisX: {
minimum: new Date(2016,8,4),
maximum: new Date(),
},

it’s seems there is a problem with date object because if I put in place number values it works fine:

axisX: {
minimum: 0,
maximum: 24,
},
data: [
{
dataPoints: [],
}

Thank you for the help

Hi,

In JavaScript date-time object format of new Date(year, month[, day[, hour[, minutes[, seconds[, milliseconds]]]]]); 2nd(month) parameter starts from 0 (ie. 0 maps to January). [Source]

Similarly in your case 8 will represent to September, which will be more than assigned maximum of new Date(). That’s why you won’t get any labels in axis X.

Hi,
Thank you for the support.
In fact I found a trick, I add a virtual point in the dataPoints in a past time which has nothing related to my chart. Like that it works as I want. http://jsfiddle.net/x1tr0kkv/1/
