Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`static ScaleId`	`checkAndGetScaleID(String id, ScaleId defaultValue)`	Returns the ID of the scale checking the default ones, `DefaultScaleId`.
`static void`	`checkIfValid(String id)`	Checks if scale id passed as argument is not `null` and its value is not `null` as well and could be a valid scale id. If not, throw a `IllegalArgumentException`.

`static ScaleId`	`create(String id)`	Returns a key instance by its string value.
`AxisKind`	`getAxisKind()`	Returns the default axis kind for this default scale id.
`static boolean`	`isValid(String id)`	Returns `true` if scale id passed as argument is not `null` and its value could be a valid scale id.
