The property will be like similar to http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/dataviz/chart#configuration-categoryAxis.autoBaseUnitSteps. For the time being the property can be set through the kendo widget: ASPX: <script type="text/javascript"> function pageLoad() { var kendoWidget = $find("<%=RadHtmlChart1.ClientID%>").get_kendoWidget(); kendoWidget.options.categoryAxis.baseUnitStep = "auto"; kendoWidget.options.categoryAxis.autoBaseUnitSteps = { months: [4] }; kendoWidget.redraw(); } </script> <telerik:RadHtmlChart ID="RadHtmlChart1" runat="server" Width="600" Height="400"> <PlotArea> <Series> <telerik:ColumnSeries DataFieldY="SellQuantity"> </telerik:ColumnSeries> </Series> <XAxis DataLabelsField="SellDate" > <LabelsAppearance DataFormatString="MM/yyyy" RotationAngle="45"></LabelsAppearance> </XAxis> </PlotArea> </telerik:RadHtmlChart> C#: protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { RadHtmlChart1.DataSource = GetData(); RadHtmlChart1.DataBind(); } protected DataTable GetData() { DataTable dt = new DataTable(); dt.Columns.Add("ID", typeof(int)); dt.Columns.Add("SellQuantity", typeof(int)); dt.Columns.Add("SellDate", typeof(DateTime)); dt.Rows.Add(1, 2, new DateTime(2011, 01, 01)); dt.Rows.Add(1, 2, new DateTime(2011, 06, 01)); dt.Rows.Add(2, 5, new DateTime(2011, 12, 01)); dt.Rows.Add(3, 6, new DateTime(2012, 06, 01)); dt.Rows.Add(4, 4, new DateTime(2012, 09, 01)); dt.Rows.Add(5, 7, new DateTime(2013, 03, 01)); return dt; }
