                              values point away.
        tickTextOffset        (int) reserved spacing between text and axis in px
        tickTextWidth         (int) Horizontal space reserved for tick text in px
        tickTextHeight        (int) Vertical space reserved for tick text in px
        autoExpandTextSpace   (bool) Automatically expand text space if the tick
                              strings become too long.
        autoReduceTextSpace   (bool) Automatically shrink the axis if necessary
        hideOverlappingLabels (bool) Hide tick labels which overlap the AxisItems'
                              geometry rectangle. If False, labels might be drawn
                              overlapping with tick labels from neighboring plots.
        tickFont              (QFont or None) Determines the font used for tick
                              values. Use None for the default font.
        stopAxisAtTick        (tuple: (bool min, bool max)) If True, the axis
                              line is drawn only as far as the last tick.
                              Otherwise, the line is drawn to the edge of the
                              AxisItem boundary.
        textFillLimits        (list of (tick #, % fill) tuples). This structure
                              determines how the AxisItem decides how many ticks
                              should have text appear next to them. Each tuple in
                              the list specifies what fraction of the axis length
                              may be occupied by text, given the number of ticks
                              that already have text displayed. For example::

                                   (2, 0.6), # If we already have 2 ticks with text,
                                             # fill no more than 60% of the axis
                                   (4, 0.4), # If we already have 4 ticks with text,
                                             # fill no more than 40% of the axis
                                   (6, 0.2)] # If we already have 6 ticks with text,
                                             # fill no more than 20% of the axis

        showValues            (bool) indicates whether text is displayed adjacent
                              to ticks.
        tickAlpha             (float or int or None) If None, pyqtgraph will draw the
                              ticks with the alpha it deems appropriate.  Otherwise,
                              the alpha will be fixed at the value passed.  With int,

        spacing between ticks (this is required since, in some instances, there may be only
        one tick and thus no other way to determine the tick spacing)

        The scale argument is used when the axis label is displaying units which may have an SI scaling prefix.
        When determining the text to display, use value*scale to correctly account for this prefix.
        For example, if the axis label's units are set to 'V', then a tick value of 0.001 might
        be accompanied by a scale value of 1000. This indicates that the label is displaying 'mV', and
        thus the tick should display 0.001 * 1000 = 1.
