height
The height of a visualization. __Default value:__ - If a view's [`autosize`](size.html#autosize) type is `"fit"` or its y-channel has a [continuous scale](scale.html#continuous), the height will be the value of [`config.view.height`](spec.html#config). - For y-axis with a band or point scale: if [`rangeStep`](scale.html#band) is a numeric value or unspecified, the height is [determined by the range step, paddings, and the cardinality of the field mapped to y-channel](scale.html#band). Otherwise, if the `rangeStep` is `null`, the height will be the value of [`config.view.height`](spec.html#config). - If no field is mapped to `y` channel, the `height` will be the value of `rangeStep`. __Note__: For plots with [`row` and `column` channels](encoding.html#facet), this represents the height of a single view. __See also:__ The documentation for [width and height](size.html) contains more examples.

The width of a visualization. __Default value:__ This will be determined by the following rules: - If a view's [`autosize`](size.html#autosize) type is `"fit"` or its x-channel has a [continuous scale](scale.html#continuous), the width will be the value of [`config.view.width`](spec.html#config). - For x-axis with a band or point scale: if [`rangeStep`](scale.html#band) is a numeric value or unspecified, the width is [determined by the range step, paddings, and the cardinality of the field mapped to x-channel](scale.html#band). Otherwise, if the `rangeStep` is `null`, the width will be the value of [`config.view.width`](spec.html#config). - If no field is mapped to `x` channel, the `width` will be the value of [`config.scale.textXRangeStep`](size.html#default-width-and-height) for `text` mark and the value of `rangeStep` for other marks. __Note:__ For plots with [`row` and `column` channels](encoding.html#facet), this represents the width of a single view. __See also:__ The documentation for [width and height](size.html) contains more examples.

feature
The name of the TopoJSON object set to convert to a GeoJSON feature collection. For example, in a map of the world, there may be an object set named `"countries"`. Using the feature property, we can extract this set and generate a GeoJSON feature object for each country.
{"type": "string"}
vega-lite.json
mesh
The name of the TopoJSON object set to convert to mesh. Similar to the `feature` option, `mesh` extracts a named TopoJSON object set. Unlike the `feature` option, the corresponding geo data is returned as a single, unified mesh instance, not as individual GeoJSON features. Extracting a mesh is useful for more efficiently drawing borders or other geographic elements that you do not need to associate with specific regions such as individual countries, states or counties.
{"type": "string"}
vega-lite.json
parse
If set to auto (the default), perform automatic type inference to determine the desired data types. Alternatively, a parsing directive object can be provided for explicit data types. Each property of the object corresponds to a field name, and the value to the desired data type (one of `"number"`, `"boolean"` or `"date"`). For example, `"parse": {"modified_on": "date"}` parses the `modified_on` field in each input record a Date value. For `"date"`, we parse data based using Javascript's [`Date.parse()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/parse). For Specific date formats can be provided (e.g., `{foo: 'date:"%m%d%Y"'}`), using the [d3-time-format syntax](https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format#locale_format). UTC date format parsing is supported similarly (e.g., `{foo: 'utc:"%m%d%Y"'}`). See more about [UTC time](timeunit.html#utc)

vega-lite.json
type

fieldTitle
Defines how Vega-Lite generates title for fields. There are three possible styles: - `"verbal"` (Default) - displays function in a verbal style (e.g., "Sum of field", "Year-month of date", "field (binned)"). - `"function"` - displays function using parentheses and capitalized texts (e.g., "SUM(field)", "YEARMONTH(date)", "BIN(field)"). - `"plain"` - displays only the field name without functions (e.g., "field", "date", "field").

vega-lite.json
domain
A boolean flag indicating if the domain (the axis baseline) should be included as part of the axis. __Default value:__ `true`
{"type": "boolean"}
vega-lite.json
grid
A boolean flag indicating if grid lines should be included as part of the axis __Default value:__ `true` for [continuous scales](scale.html#continuous) that are not binned; otherwise, `false`.
{"type": "boolean"}
vega-lite.json
labelAngle
The rotation angle of the axis labels. __Default value:__ `-90` for nominal and ordinal fields; `0` otherwise.
{"maximum": 360, "minimum": -360, "type": "number"}
vega-lite.json
labelBound
Indicates if labels should be hidden if they exceed the axis range. If `false `(the default) no bounds overlap analysis is performed. If `true`, labels will be hidden if they exceed the axis range by more than 1 pixel. If this property is a number, it specifies the pixel tolerance: the maximum amount by which a label bounding box may exceed the axis range. __Default value:__ `false`.
{"type": ["boolean", "number"]}
vega-lite.json
labelFlush
Indicates if the first and last axis labels should be aligned flush with the scale range. Flush alignment for a horizontal axis will left-align the first label and right-align the last label. For vertical axes, bottom and top text baselines are applied instead. If this property is a number, it also indicates the number of pixels by which to offset the first and last labels; for example, a value of 2 will flush-align the first and last labels and also push them 2 pixels outward from the center of the axis. The additional adjustment can sometimes help the labels better visually group with corresponding axis ticks. __Default value:__ `true` for axis of a continuous x-scale. Otherwise, `false`.
{"type": ["boolean", "number"]}
vega-lite.json
labelOverlap
The strategy to use for resolving overlap of axis labels. If `false` (the default), no overlap reduction is attempted. If set to `true` or `"parity"`, a strategy of removing every other label is used (this works well for standard linear axes). If set to `"greedy"`, a linear scan of the labels is performed, removing any labels that overlaps with the last visible label (this often works better for log-scaled axes). __Default value:__ `true` for non-nominal fields with non-log scales; `"greedy"` for log scales; otherwise `false`.
{"anyOf": [{"type": "boolean"}, {"enum": ["parity"], "type": "string"}, {"enum": ["greedy"], "type": "string"}]}
