Axis range is not taken to the next major tickmark

By default SharpPlot rounds the scale to a major tickmark interval in both directions. If these ticks are well spaced out (for example annual data with 11 minor ticks at the month boundaries) it is often better just to span the range of the data.

sp.SetXTickMarks(20,3);
sp.Heading = "X-Axis Fits the Data Range Exactly";
sp.XAxisStyle = XAxisStyles.ForceZero|XAxisStyles.ExactFit;
sp.DrawLineGraph(col_S1,col_S2);

This style is currently only available on the X-axis. It is often coupled with ForceZero (as here) to make the lower value round back nicely.
