public final class DateAxis
extends Axis<Date>

An axis that displays date and time values.

Tick labels are usually automatically set and calculated depending on the range unless you explicitly set a formatter. You also have the chance to specify fix lower and upper bounds, otherwise they are calculated by the chart data.

 ObservableList<XYChart.Series<Date, Number>> series = FXCollections.observableArrayList();

 ObservableList<XYChart.Data<Date, Number>> series1Data = FXCollections.observableArrayList();
 series1Data.add(new XYChart.Data<Date, Number>(new GregorianCalendar(2012, 11, 15).getTime(), 2));
 series1Data.add(new XYChart.Data<Date, Number>(new GregorianCalendar(2014, 5, 3).getTime(), 4));

 ObservableList<XYChart.Data<Date, Number>> series2Data = FXCollections.observableArrayList();
 series2Data.add(new XYChart.Data<Date, Number>(new GregorianCalendar(2014, 0, 13).getTime(), 8));
 series2Data.add(new XYChart.Data<Date, Number>(new GregorianCalendar(2014, 7, 27).getTime(), 4));

 series.add(new XYChart.Series<>("Series1", series1Data));
 series.add(new XYChart.Series<>("Series2", series2Data));

 NumberAxis numberAxis = new NumberAxis();
 DateAxis dateAxis = new DateAxis();
 LineChart<Date, Number> lineChart = new LineChart<>(dateAxis, numberAxis, series);
