Bar graph: Y-Axis group
Properties in this group control the visibility and range of the y-axis or y-axes, as well as y-axis label formats and y-axis divisions. They also control the visibility of y-axis grid lines (but see also
Bar graph: Plot Area group).
Y-Axis group properties
The group includes the following properties:

Select or enter the numeric format of trace values displayed on the y-axis. Use syntax from the Java DecimalFormat class.
This property is in the Y-Axis property group.
traceYAxisMajorDivisions
Specify the number of major divisions on the trace y-axis. This option only applies if the
traceYAxisFlag is on.
This property is in the Y-Axis property group.
traceYAxisMinorDivisions
Specify the number of minor divisions on the trace y-axis. This option only applies if the
traceYAxisFlag is on.
This property is in the Y-Axis property group.
yAxisAutoScaleMode
Select one of the following modes to control the y-axis range:
Off: The
yValueMin and
yValueMax properties determine the range of the y-axis. This is the default.
On: The dashboard calculates the y-axis range according to data values being plotted.
On - Include Min/Max: The dashboard calculates the smallest range (with rounding) that includes
yValueMin and
yValueMax as well as all plotted points.
This property is in the Y-Axis property group.
yAxisFlag
Select to display the y-axis.
This property is in the Y-Axis property group.

Bar and Trace Axis: Draw two sets of grid lines, one aligned with the left y-axis and the other with the right y-axis.
This property is in the Y-Axis property group.
yAxisMajorDivisions
Specify the number of major divisions on the y-axis.
