This issue came out during the code review https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/pull/1214 (JDK-8283675)

In LineChart, minor ticks in both the axes are not shown with correct resolution, rather it gets concentrated towards the origin as shown in the attached screenshot LineChart.png.
This is observed only when animation is enabled.
(this issue can be seen with any kind of XYChart: area, bar, bubble, line, scatter, stacked area, stacked bar.)

Steps to reproduce the issue:
Run the given example.
Press Add Point button
Observe how minor ticks are spread across the axes.

Expected behavior:
Minor ticks should be of uniform resolution and should be spread across the axis.

Actual behavior:
Minor ticks are concentrated towards the origin.

This issue is also observed sometimes when linechart contains data and each point is removed one by one using Remove Point button.
