    This is true when the axis determines its range from the data automatically
    
    Returns:
    
    property
  - autoRangingProperty
```
javafx.beans.property.BooleanProperty autoRangingProperty()
```
    This is true when the axis determines its range from the data automatically
    
    Returns:
    
    property
  - autoUnitScalingProperty
```
javafx.beans.property.BooleanProperty autoUnitScalingProperty()
```
    Returns:
    
    true -> scale to the nearest SI unit prefix
  - drawAxis
```
void drawAxis(javafx.scene.canvas.GraphicsContext gc,
              double axisWidth,
              double axisHeight)
```
    Function allows custom drawing of axes outside the Axis environment (ie. on another canvas)
    
    Parameters:

    axisHeight - the axis height in pixel (N.B. padding is being added)
  - forceRedraw
```
void forceRedraw()
```
    forces redrawing of axis (via layoutChildren()). This is used to force an update while the main chart area is being updated (a requestLayout()) would be executed only during the next pulse. This is used explicitly in the Chart class. Outside use of this context should be limited to a minimum... handle with care

  - getValueForDisplay
```
double getValueForDisplay(double displayPosition)

```
void requestAxisLayout()
```
    Request that the axis is laid out in the next layout pass. This replaces requestLayout() as it has been overridden to do nothing so that changes to children's bounds etc do not cause a layout. This was done as a optimisation as the Axis knows the exact minimal set of changes that really need layout to be updated. So we only want to request layout then, not on any child change.
