Labelling - Label and tick placement option

Description:
This attribute controls the appearance of annotated axes by determining the strategy for placing numerical labels and tick marks.

If the Labelling value is "exterior"  (the default), then numerical labels and their associated tick marks are placed around the edges of the plotting area, if possible. If this is not possible, or if the Labelling  value is "interior", then they are placed along grid lines inside the plotting area.

Type:

String.
Notes:
  • The LabelAt(axis) attribute may be used to determine the exact placement of labels and tick marks that are drawn inside the plotting area.
