Remarks
The AxisType enumeration represents the axis type used for a Series' x and y-axes.
A Series is plotted using two axes (except for pie and doughnut charts), and this enumeration is used in conjunction with the Series.XAxisType and Series.YAxisType properties to set the axes used for plotting the Series' associated data points.
For all charts except bar, stacked bar, pie and doughnut the primary and secondary axes are as follows:
|

|
Secondary X-Axis |

Bar-type charts have their axes rotated 90 degrees clockwise. For example, the primary X-axis for these two charts is the left-vertical axis.
