//  File:		AxisScrollZoom.cs
//
//  Namespace:	System.Web.UI.WebControls[Windows.Forms].Charting
//
//	Classes:	AxisScaleView, ViewEventArgs, DoubleNanValueConverter
//
//  Purpose:	AxisScaleView class represents a data scaleView, and is 
//              exposed using the Axis.ScaleView property. A data scaleView is 
//              a "scaleView" of data that has a start position (represented 
//              by the Position property) and a size (represented by 
//              the Size property).
//
//              Axis data scaleView is used in zooming and scrolling when
//              only part of the data must be visible. Views always 
//              belong to an axis, and a scaleView can result from either 
//              user interaction or by calling the Zoom or Scroll 
//              methods. User interaction, accomplished using range 
//              selection along an axis using the mouse, is possible 
//              if the IsUserSelectionEnabled property of the chart area'
//              s cursor property is set to true. The end-user selects 
//              a range by left-clicking the mouse and dragging the 
//              mouse, and when the mouse button is released the 
//              selected range is then displayed as a scaleView.
