Logarithminc axis doesn't control fine the number of labels to draw without overlapping
Similar and probably related to TV52013473.

uses Series, Math;
procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
var
  Series1: TFastLineSeries;
  x,y: extended;
  i: integer;
begin
  Chart1.View3D:=false;
  Chart1.Legend.Visible:=false;
  Series1:=Chart1.AddSeries(TFastLineSeries.Create(self)) as TFastLineSeries;
  for i:=1 to 100 do
  begin
    x:=0.5*i;
    y:=power(x,i);
    Series1.AddXY(x,y);
  end;
  Chart1.Axes.Left.Logarithmic:=true;
  Chart1.Axes.Left.LabelsSeparation:=50;  //això semblava un workaround en alguns casos, però aquí no fas res :-(
//  Chart1.Axes.Left.LogarithmicBase:=1E13;  //workaround
end;

In NET it behaves different. If you try to draw the same values, the left axis labels are too long. So I do:
tChart1.Axes.Left.Labels.ValueFormat = "00e-0";
And the result is quite different than in VCL. [created:2010-06-07T12:41:08.000+01:00 reported by:yeray@steema.com reported in version:9.0 (TeeChart VCL)]

The same problem occurs when we try to zoom chart with logarithmic scale.
