 ## Configuration Options
 
-The following options are provided by the time scale. They are all located in the `time` sub options. These options extend the [common tick configuration](README.md#tick-configuration).
+The following options are provided by the time scale. You may also set options provided by the [common tick configuration](README.md#tick-configuration).
 
 | Name | Type | Default | Description
 | -----| ---- | --------| -----------
-| `displayFormats` | `Object` | | Sets how different time units are displayed. [more...](#display-formats)
-| `isoWeekday` | `Boolean` | `false` | If true and the unit is set to 'week', iso weekdays will be used.
-| `max` | [Time](#date-formats) | | If defined, this will override the data maximum
-| `min` | [Time](#date-formats) | | If defined, this will override the data minimum
-| `parser` | `String` or `Function` | | Custom parser for dates. [more...](#parser)
-| `round` | `String` | `false` | If defined, dates will be rounded to the start of this unit. See [Time Units](#time-units) below for the allowed units.
-| `tooltipFormat` | `String` | | The moment js format string to use for the tooltip.
-| `unit` | `String` | `false` | If defined, will force the unit to be a certain type. See [Time Units](#time-units) section below for details.
-| `stepSize` | `Number` | `1` | The number of units between grid lines.
-| `minUnit` | `String` | `'millisecond'` | The minimum display format to be used for a time unit.

+### Scale Distribution
+
+This property controls the data distribution along the scale:
+
+  * 'linear': data are spread according to their time (distances can vary)
+  * 'series': data are spread at the same distance from each other
+
+```javascript
+var chart = new Chart(ctx, {
+    type: 'line',
+    data: data,
+    options: {
+        scales: {
+            xAxes: [{
+                type: 'time',
+                distribution: 'series'
+            }]
+        }
+    }
+})
+```
+
+### Scale Bounds
+
+This property controls the scale boundary strategy (bypassed by min/max time options)
+
+* `data`: make sure data are fully visible, labels outside are removed
+* `ticks`: make sure ticks are fully visible, data outside are truncated
+
+### Ticks Source
+
+This property controls the ticks generation
+
+* 'auto': generates "optimal" ticks based on scale size and time options.
+* 'data': generates ticks from data (including labels from data `{t|x|y}` objects)
+* 'labels': generates ticks from user given `data.labels` values ONLY
+
 ### Parser
 If this property is defined as a string, it is interpreted as a custom format to be used by moment to parse the date.
