# init(format:centered:anchor:multiLabelAlignment:collisionResolution:offsetsMarks:orientation:horizontalSpacing:verticalSpacing:) Constructs an axis value label with the given properties to display the given content. ``` nonisolated init(format: Format, centered: Bool? = nil, anchor: UnitPoint? = nil, multiLabelAlignment: Alignment? = nil, collisionResolution: AxisValueLabelCollisionResolution = .automatic, offsetsMarks: Bool? = nil, orientation: AxisValueLabelOrientation = .automatic, horizontalSpacing: CGFloat? = nil, verticalSpacing: CGFloat? = nil) where Content == Never, Format : FormatStyle, Format.FormatInput : Plottable, Format.FormatOutput == String ``` ## Parameters `format` The format for the text. `centered` Whether to center the label between two axis values. If `nil`, default to true for discrete data, false to continuous data. `anchor` The anchor point on the bounding box of the text element that attaches to the `position`. `multiLabelAlignment` How labels along the axis are aligned with each other. `collisionResolution` How labels that collide with others are resolved. `offsetsMarks` Whether to offset marks to accomodate for the space used by the label. `orientation` The orientation of the label. `horizontalSpacing` The horizontal spacing of the label. If `nil`, a default spacing will be used. `verticalSpacing` The vertical spacing of the label. --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
