class: CategoryAxis

[110:7] extends: FxObj

Wraps JavaFX CategoryAxis, an axis that displays a discrete set of string category labels evenly spaced along the axis. It is used as the X or Y axis in XY charts such as BarChart and StackedBarChart where the domain values are named categories rather than numbers. Extends Axis, Region, and Node.
