The following values can be specified for both horizontal and vertical axes.

    Leaves axis labels overlapped.

The following values can be specified for horizontal axes only.

  • rotate
    Rotates axis labels through the angle specified by the rotationAngle option.
  • stagger
    Arranges axis labels in two rows in a staggering manner. An empty space between the rows is specified by the staggeringSpacing option.

Use the OverlappingBehavior enum to specify this option when the widget is used as an ASP.NET MVC Control. This enum accepts the following values: Stagger, Rotate, Hide, and None.
