his is by selecting the dates/times in the data array only if it is not the same year as the previous element in the array. The selected elements will be left unchanged, while the elements not select will be replaced by NoValue. The resulting array can be used directly in Axis.setLabels2.

For the first data point, there is no previous data point to compare, so it is handled differently. The first data point will be selected if it is near the beginning of the year it represents. By default, near means within 60 days (5184000 seconds). This is configurable using the initialMargin argument.

Note that if the data points does not have data in a certain time range, no element can be selected in that time range, and so there will be no tick for that time range. This is appropriate for many chart types, such as finance charts, in which missing time ranges (non-trading hours, holidays, etc) are traditionally skipped.

However, if the data points may contain missing time ranges, but the ticks cannot be skipped, it may be more appropriate to use a non-enumerated x-axis by using Layer.setXData and Axis.setDateScale3 (or Axis.setDateScale or Axis.setDateScale2).

Arguments

Argument	Default	Description
majorTickStep	1	The tick step. The default value of 1 means one tick per year. A value of n means one tick per n years.
initialMargin	5184000	The margin for the first data point. The first data point will be selected if it is within initialMargin number of seconds from beginning of the year it represents. The default is 60 days (5184000 seconds).
