Enable zooming

The chart can be zoomed in three different ways.

NOTE

Pinch zooming is only usable in browsers that support multi-touch gestures.

Zooming in Blazor Column Chart

A zooming toolbar will show after zooming the chart, featuring options for Zoom, Zoom In, Zoom Out, Pan, and Reset. The Pan option allows you to pan the chart, while the Reset option allows you to reset the zoomed chart.

Modes

The Mode property in ChartZoomSettings determines whether the chart can scale along the horizontal or vertical axes. The default value of the mode is XY (both axis).

There are three types of modes.

  • X - Allows us to zoom the chart horizontally.
  • Y - Allows us to zoom the chart vertically.
  • XY - Allows us to zoom the chart both vertically and horizontally.
