Description yeray alonso 2015-08-18 06:40:32 EDT 
A customer proposed an override of the event OnDraxAxisLabel:
now:
procedure OnDrawAxisLabel(Sender:TChartAxis; var X,Y,Z:Integer; var Text:String; var DrawLabel:Boolean);
proposed:
procedure OnDrawAxisLabel(Sender:TChartAxis; var X,Y,Z:Integer; var Text: string; const aValueOfTick: Float; var DrawLabel:Boolean);
"This will make it easier for me than converting a string to a float or a datestring to a float. I know that not all series have a value of a tick but those axis that have this information it would be much faster and easier to rearrange labels."

Another customer suggests us to have an extra event instead of changing the actual OnGetAxisLabel:

"In case changing the existing callback is problematic due to compatibility reasons, an alternative might be to provide an additional one, such as shown below?

Function TChartAxis.LabelValue(Const Value:Double):String;
var tmp : String;
Begin
  ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
  if Assigned(ParentChart.FOnGetCustomAxisLabel) then
     Result := ParentChart.FOnGetCustomAxisLabel(TChartAxis(Self), Value)
  ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
  else
  begin
  if IAxisDateTime then
  begin
    if FDateTimeFormat='' then tmp:=DateTimeDefaultFormat(IRange)
                          else tmp:=FDateTimeFormat;

    DateTimeToString(result,tmp,Value);
  end
  else
    result:=FormatFloat(FAxisValuesFormat,Value);

  if Assigned(ParentChart.FOnGetAxisLabel) then
     ParentChart.FOnGetAxisLabel(TChartAxis(Self),nil,-1,Result);

  if FLabels.MultiLine then
     result:=ReplaceChar(result,' ',TeeLineSeparator);
  end;
end;"
