Use the following parameters of Axis2D.ResolveOverlappingOptions.
AllowHide - allows you to specify a value indicating whether or not to hide axis labels on resolve overlapping.
AllowRotate - allows you to specify a value indicating whether or not to rotate axis labels on resolve overlapping.
AllowStagger - allows you to specify a value indicating whether or not to stagger axis labels on resolve overlapping.
MinIndent - allows you to specify the minimum indent between adjacent axis labels when an overlap resolution algorithm is applied to them.
