By default, the MinorTimeLabel property is ":<%nn%>", which indicates that the major rulers displays the minutes only. The MajorTimeLabel property defines the time label to be shown on the major rulers, while the MinorTimeLabel property specifies the time label to be shown on minor rulers. The MinorLabelColor property indicates the color to show the labels on minor rulers. The MinorTimeLabelPlainText property should be set on False, if the MinorTimeLabel property uses UI font attributes like <b>, <fgcolor>, and so on. The MinorTimeRuler property indicates the time to show the minor rulers. 

The TimeZone property can be used to programmatically update the time zone. You can use the ShortTimeFormat property to define a 24-hours format, by removing the <%AM.PM%> TAG. The Caption property specifies the HTML caption to be displayed on the top side of the time scale. 

The minor lines can be changed using the following Background properties:

• The Background(exScheduleTimeScaleMinorRulerColor) specifies the color to show the lines for minor rulers ( This option changes the lines being shown in the time scale header )
• The Background(exScheduleTimeScaleMinorRulerStyle) property indicates a LinesStyleEnum expression that determines the style of lines to be shown on minor rulers ( This option changes the lines being shown in the time scale header )
• The Background(exScheduleMinorTimeScaleStyle) indicates a LinesStyleEnum expression that determines style of lines to be shown on the schedule view.
• The Background(exScheduleMinorTimeRulerColor) indicates the color to show the minor lines on the schedule view

Here's a few samples on how you can use the MinorTimeLabel property:

• "", no label is shown on the minor rulers
• "<%hh%>:<%nn%> <%AM/PM%>", hour and minute of the minor, using the AM/PM time indicators.
• "<font ;6>:<%nn%>", minute with a smaller font. The MinorTimeLabelPlainText property must be set on False.

The MinorTimeLabel property supports the following HTML tags:

• <%hy%> - Date displayed as the half of the year (1 to 2).
• <%loc_gg%> - Indicates period/era using the current user regional and language settings.
• <%loc_sdate%> - Indicates the date in the short format using the current user regional and language settings.
• <%loc_ldate%> - Indicates the date in the long format using the current user regional and language settings.
• <%loc_dsep%> - Indicates the date separator using the current user regional and language settings (/).
• <%h%> - Hour in one or two digits, as needed (0 to 23).
• <%hh%> - Hour in two digits (00 to 23).
• <%n%> - Minute in one or two digits, as needed (0 to 59).
• <%nn%> - Minute in two digits (00 to 59).
• <%s%> - Second in one or two digits, as needed (0 to 59).
• <%ss%> - Second in two digits (00 to 59).
• <%AM/PM%> - Twelve-hour clock with the uppercase letters "AM" or "PM", as appropriate. ( Use the AMPM property to specify the name of the AM and PM indicators ). You can use the <%loc_AM/PM%> that indicates the time marker such as AM or PM using the current user regional and language settings. You can use <%loc_A/P%> that indicates the one character time marker such as A or P using the current user regional and language settings
• <%loc_AM/PM%> - Indicates the time marker such as AM or PM using the current user regional and language settings.
• <%loc_A/P%> - Indicates the one character time marker such as A or P using the current user regional and language settings.
• <%loc_time%> - Indicates the time using the current user regional and language settings.
• <%loc_time24%> - Indicates the time in 24 hours format without a time marker using the current user regional and language settings.
• <%loc_tsep%> - indicates the time separator using the current user regional and language settings (:).

The MinorTimeLabel property supports the following HTML tags ( The MinorTimeLabelPlainText property must be set on False, else the following UI attributes are not shown ) :

• <b> ... </b> displays the text in bold
• <i> ... </i> displays the text in italics
• <u> ... </u> underlines the text
• <s> ... </s> Strike-through text
• <a id;options> ... </a> displays an anchor element that can be clicked. An anchor is a piece of text or some other object (for example an image) which marks the beginning and/or the end of a hypertext link.The <a> element is used to mark that piece of text (or inline image), and to give its hypertextual relationship to other documents. The control fires the AnchorClick(AnchorID, Options) event when the user clicks the anchor element. The FormatAnchor property customizes the visual effect for anchor elements.

  The control supports expandable HTML captions feature which allows you to expand(show)/collapse(hide) different information using <a ;exp=> or <a ;e64=> anchor tags. The exp/e64 field of the anchor stores the HTML line/lines to show once the user clicks/collapses/expands the caption.

  • exp, stores the plain text to be shown once the user clicks the anchor, such as <a ;exp=show lines>
  • e64, encodes in BASE64 the HTML text to be shown once the user clicks the anchor, such as <a ;e64=gA8ABmABnABjABvABshIAOQAEAAHAAGESikWio+ABzABohp3iELABpABuABljYAgRhAEaFsqAAvAEsjUCmUEg0IhUMhUPjQAAEBA>+</a> that displays show lines- in gray when the user clicks the + anchor. The gA8ABmABnABjABvABshIAOQAEAAHAAGESikWio+ABzABohp3iELABpABuABljYAgRhAEaFsqAAvAEsjUCmUEg0IhUMhUPjQAAEBA string encodes the <fgcolor 808080>show lines<a>-</a></fgcolor> The Decode64Text/Encode64Text methods of the eXPrint can be used to decode/encode e64 fields.

  Any ex-HTML caption can be transformed to an expandable-caption, by inserting the anchor ex-HTML tag. For instance, <solidline><b>Header</b></solidline><br>Line1<r><a ;exp=show lines>+</a><br>Line2<br>Line3 shows the Header in underlined and bold on the first line and Line1, Line2, Line3 on the rest. The show lines is shown instead of Line1, Line2, Line3 once the user clicks the + sign.

• <font face;size> ... </font> displays portions of text with a different font and/or different size. For instance, the <font Tahoma;12>bit</font> draws the bit text using the Tahoma font, on size 12 pt. If the name of the font is missing, and instead size is present, the current font is used with a different size. For instance, <font ;12>bit</font> displays the bit text using the current font, but with a different size.
• <fgcolor rrggbb> ... </fgcolor> or <fgcolor=rrggbb> ... </fgcolor> displays text with a specified foreground color. The rr/gg/bb represents the red/green/blue values of the color in hexa values.
• <bgcolor rrggbb> ... </bgcolor> or <bgcolor=rrggbb> ... </bgcolor> displays text with a specified background color. The rr/gg/bb represents the red/green/blue values of the color in hexa values.
• <solidline rrggbb> ... </solidline> or <solidline=rrggbb> ... </solidline> draws a solid-line on the bottom side of the current text-line, of specified RGB color. The <solidline> ... </solidline> draws a black solid-line on the bottom side of the current text-line. The rr/gg/bb represents the red/green/blue values of the color in hexa values.
• <dotline rrggbb> ... </dotline> or <dotline=rrggbb> ... </dotline> draws a dot-line on the bottom side of the current text-line, of specified RGB color. The <dotline> ... </dotline> draws a black dot-line on the bottom side of the current text-line. The rr/gg/bb represents the red/green/blue values of the color in hexa values.
• <upline> ... </upline> draws the line on the top side of the current text-line (requires <solidline> or <dotline>).
• <r> right aligns the text
• <c> centers the text
• <br> forces a line-break
• <img>number[:width]</img> inserts an icon inside the text. The number indicates the index of the icon being inserted. Use the Images method to assign a list of icons to your chart. The last 7 bits in the high significant byte of the number expression indicates the identifier of the skin being used to paint the object. Use the Add method to add new skins to the control. If you need to remove the skin appearance from a part of the control you need to reset the last 7 bits in the high significant byte of the color being applied to the part. The width is optional and indicates the width of the icon being inserted. Using the width option you can overwrite multiple icons getting a nice effect. By default, if the width field is missing, the width is 18 pixels.
• <img>key[:width]</img> inserts a custom size picture into the text being previously loaded using the HTMLPicture property. The Key parameter indicates the key of the picture being displayed. The Width parameter indicates a custom size, if you require to stretch the picture, else the original size of the picture is used.
• & glyph characters as &amp; ( & ), &lt; ( < ), &gt; ( > ),  &qout; ( " ) and &#number; ( the character with specified code ), For instance, the &#8364; displays the EUR character. The & ampersand is only recognized as markup when it is followed by a known letter or a #character and a digit. For instance if you want to display <b>bold</b> in HTML caption you can use &lt;b&gt;bold&lt;/b&gt;
• <off offset> ... </off> defines the vertical offset to display the text/element. The offset parameter defines the offset to display the element. This tag is inheritable, so the offset is keep while the associated </off> tag is found. You can use the <off offset> HTML tag in combination with the <font face;size> to define a smaller or a larger font to be displayed. For instance: Text with <font ;7><off 6>subscript displays the text such as: Text with _subscript The Text with <font ;7><off -6>superscript displays the text such as: Text with ^subscript
• <gra rrggbb;mode;blend> ... </gra> defines a gradient text. The text color or <fgcolor> defines the starting gradient color, while the rr/gg/bb represents the red/green/blue values of the ending color, 808080 if missing as gray. The mode is a value between 0 and 4, 1 if missing, and blend could be 0 or 1, 0 if missing. The <font> HTML tag can be used to define the height of the font. Any of the rrggbb, mode or blend field may not be specified. The <gra> with no fields, shows a vertical gradient color from the current text color to gray (808080). For instance the <font ;18><gra FFFFFF;1;1>gradient-center</gra></font> generates the following picture:
  
• <out rrggbb;width> ... </out> shows the text with outlined characters, where rr/gg/bb represents the red/green/blue values of the outline color, 808080 if missing as gray, width indicates the size of the outline, 1 if missing. The text color or <fgcolor> defines the color to show the inside text. The <font> HTML tag can be used to define the height of the font. For instance the <font ;31><out 000000><fgcolor=FFFFFF>outlined</fgcolor></out></font> generates the following picture:
  
• <sha rrggbb;width;offset> ... </sha> define a text with a shadow, where rr/gg/bb represents the red/green/blue values of the shadow color, 808080 if missing as gray, width indicates the size of shadow, 4 if missing, and offset indicates the offset from the origin to display the text's shadow, 2 if missing. The text color or <fgcolor> defines the color to show the inside text. The <font> HTML tag can be used to define the height of the font.  For instance the <font ;31><sha>shadow</sha></font> generates the following picture:
  

  or  <font ;31><sha 404040;5;0><fgcolor=FFFFFF>outline anti-aliasing</fgcolor></sha></font> gets:
